Weather Authority: Winter poised to make comeback with snowfall Sunday
PHILADELPHIA - Snow is on the way Sunday after an unseasonably warm Saturday, but how much we're expected to see will vary by location in the Delaware Valley.
The National Weather Service says Sunday will bring an end to unseasonably mild temperatures that we've been experiencing.
A Winter Weather Advisory will be in place from 1 a.m. until 1 p.m. Sunday.
FOX 29's Weather Authority is tracking 1 inch to 3 inches of snow for your Sunday.
When the snow starts overnight, the roads will just be wet. The snowflakes will melt as soon as they hit the warm road. Once we get an 1 inch of snow, the roads will start getting slushy.
This will be snow that's wet and heavy. It'll be good for making snowballs and snow people. Wet snow is also super easy to melt with salt. So, well salted roads will be in pretty good shape quickly as the snow wraps up.
The snow will end for the Pennsylvania area and Philadelphia around lunchtime on Sunday.
If you live in New Jersey or Delaware, you'll have to wait until closer to dinnertime for the snow to end.
The snow will last the longest down the shore, where it'll end at dinnertime. In fact, right as the Superbowl starts at 6:30 p.m.
Then, we're windy and cold on Valentine's Day Monday as the sunshine returns. But, the cold won't last. Temps bump up to the 60s again in the middle of the upcoming week.
Looking ahead, the weather models don't have any snow in the forecast for the rest of the month after Sunday. Weather Authority will keep an eye on that.
