2 Chances Of Winter Weather This Week: Latest Forecast For PA

PHILADELPHIA, PA — There are two chances of winter weather in this week's forecast.

A wintry mix of precipitation is expected in the Philadelphia region from late Monday into Tuesday. Then, another round of winter weather is possible on Wednesday night into Thursday, according to the National Weather Service.

A Hazardous Weather Outlook has been issued in advance.

One to two inches is possible during the early week storm.

Then, more snow is possible on Wednesday night into Thursday morning. As of now, that round of winter weather is expected to bring about an inch of snow, according to forecasters with The Weather Channel.

"Precipitation will gradually spread from south to north through the mid-Atlantic late Monday afternoon into Tuesday," AccuWeather Meteorologist Rob Richards said in a news release about the early week storm. The storm is expected to begin as snow in the Philadelphia region, and could then change to a mix of sleet and freezing rain depending on the temperature.

The storm could impact the Tuesday morning commute.

"While the heaviest snow totals are expected to remain farther west in the Midwest, there could still be a small pocket of over 6 inches in the Northeast as well, most likely in the mountains of northern Pennsylvania," according to the AccuWeather forecast.
