MOUNT HOLLY, N.J. – A winter storm will bring a mix of snow, sleet, and rain across eastern Pennsylvania, northern Delaware, and much of New Jersey from early Tuesday morning through the evening, creating slick travel and changing precipitation types along the I-95 corridor.
According to the National Weather Service in Mount Holly, a Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect for the southern Poconos and northwest New Jersey until Tuesday afternoon. The highest snow totals—3 to 6 inches—are expected in elevated areas of Sussex County, N.J., and the southern Poconos, while locations farther south and east will see mainly rain after a brief period of snow at onset.
Forecasters say snow will begin northwest of I-95 late Monday night, spreading east by sunrise Tuesday. Areas such as Allentown, Reading, and Morristown may receive 1 to 3 inches before temperatures rise and rain takes over by midday. For the I-95 corridor, including Trenton, Philadelphia, and Wilmington, a few flakes are possible before a rapid switch to rain before daybreak.
A light glaze of ice—up to 0.01 inch—is possible northwest of the I-95 corridor, making untreated surfaces slick for the Tuesday morning commute. The storm will exit east by early Tuesday evening, with precipitation ending west to east between 4 and 7 p.m.
