FORECAST SUMMARY
Overnight, the snow breaks disappeared and the snowstorm also disappeared. We had one last round of snow before the dry air entered the storm.
PHOTOS: First snowstorm of the season
The heart of Interstate 78 seemed to take between 8 and 12 inches of total snowfall, while those in northern Poconos and the northwestern tip of New Jersey saw a foot or a bit more. Totals have returned to the 4 to 8-inch range, it generally looks like you’re heading south toward Bucks and Montgomery counties to a line between Trenton and Philly. The amounts were drastically reduced to about an inch or two overlay once you reached I-95 and south and east. This was largely due to a change in rain that lasted for a while.

This morning, you will only see a few gusts.
Although we will see some sun today, it remains cold due to this wind. Be careful if you pass a flat field because the wind will blow fresh, fluffy snow toward the road, which can make it slippery.
This evening the wind ends and then it gets cold. Temperatures drop to teenagers under the empty sky.
We’re back at 32 and sunny on Friday. At least there is no cold.
But it is very cold on Friday night. We have simple digits!
DETAILED FORECAST
THURSDAY
Today we will have some gusts this morning as the coastal storm recedes. A strong northerly breeze will continue for a while, but will gradually subside as our storm recedes. It’s a cold day, so don’t expect it to melt, although some sunburns may appear later. The highs will only be in the 30s lows, with chills under the ice all day. The lows fall on teenagers overnight, with clear skies and deep snow.

Stick and cleaning: How heavy is the snow from this storm?
FRIDAY, SATURDAY AND SUNDAY
High pressure increases, winds decrease and seasonal cold air is installed during the start of the weekend. Don’t expect the snow to melt so quickly, with afternoon highs in the mid-30s and night lows in the depths of teens and even a few digits in some places Friday night, thanks to the clear sky, the gentle wind and deep snow covered. On Sunday, a weak cold front will approach from our west increasing the clouds. We’ll get a warmer touch ahead of the front as the highs return to the top 30s at around 40 degrees … more seasonal at this time of year. The front can cause rain or snow in the late hours of the day or night, but right now we don’t expect it to be a big deal.
