Philadelphia, PA – Light to moderate snowfall is set to blanket Philadelphia late Friday into Saturday, with accumulations reaching up to 2 inches.
According to the National Weather Service, snow is expected to begin late Friday night and continue into early Saturday morning. Roadways, including major routes like I-95, could become slick and hazardous, especially during early travel hours. Gusty winds up to 30 mph will reduce visibility, creating additional challenges for drivers. Residents are advised to allow extra travel time and exercise caution on the roads.

This snowfall marks a return of winter weather to the region, and while accumulations are light, residents should prepare for potentially icy roads and reduced visibility. The National Weather Service recommends keeping an emergency kit in vehicles and checking for updates before traveling.
Be sure to plan ahead for weekend activities, as snow-covered roads and gusty winds may linger into Saturday morning.
