Philly Winter Weather Outlook- Sun PM
Today's model runs have been consistent with a forecast of a warm-frontal type light snow for Tuesday in advance of the main low pressure system that will affect us on Wednesday.
The GFS model is predicting 2-4 inches of snow on Tuesday, becoming light freezing rain Tuesday evening and then heavy rain for Wednesday. The majority of this storm will be rain for us, in marked contrast to our last storm. There is little uncertainty about this being a mostly rain event for Philadelphia.
What is a bit dicey is the very early evening commute hours of Tuesday and possibly the very early commute hours of Wednesday, where a freezing rain situation might make driving difficult. It's not certain how much freezing precip will fall before the transition to all rain. Again, for our area, I would expect this storm to be a mostly rain event on Wednesday. It does not appear that it will change to snow at the end.
