Philly Weather Outlook
The storm is departing and should be over in an hour or two in Philadelphia, later in NJ. In summary, the original 1.00 inch water prediction was close enough, with varying amounts oflocal enhancement, and in NJ, diminished accumulation due to higher temps and less focused lift. The NWS issues a statement about snow totals around our area.
Today will have slow clearing, windy and cold conditions. High 28. For the upcoming week, cold temperatures early in the week will lead to a warm up on Thursday and Friday. Another cold front with rain changing to light snow will move through Friday.
Cold temperatures will return for next weekend.

Winter Storm Update- 6AM Sunday Update
The 1 AM NAM model has doubled the amount of snow remaining after 7AM to another 2-3 inches.
Currently, just west of Philadelphia, frontogenic forcing and upsloaping from terrain is causing localized banding and 'thunder snow' has further increased localized amounts, much as thunderstorms can increase local amounts in the summer. Areas in Chester, Delaware and central Montco counties have experienced heavy banding with these mesoscale (small scale) features. The models aren't great at pin pointing where these features will happen, but do hint at their occuring. I believe it was originally expected to occur in central NJ.
It looks like we are ending up here (Chestnut Hill vicinity) with over 1 foot of snow, possibly as much as 15 inches. Areas in the city probably will end up with 1 foot or somewhat less.
Snow is still expected to taper off by late morning, with slow clearing. Snow flurries and high winds, above 25 mph, are expected as the storm departs.
