After 8:00 AM, lingering precipitation is expected to begin changing over to light snow. There could be a few heavier bands across the Poconos, but given the warm temperatures today and the timing of the changeover being during daytime, accumulation is not expected outside of the Poconos and Sussex County, NJ.
A quick dusting is possible across the Lehigh Valley and into Northern New Jersey, but this is not expected to cause significant impacts.
Elsewhere, a few wet snowflakes or a quick snow shower is likely late morning into the early afternoon.
By 4:00 PM, precipitation should begin to move offshore, with conditions beginning to clear after that. Winds will be the big story with wind gusts nearing 25 mph. \Temperatures will be falling from the 40s into the 30s and even 20s in the Poconos through the afternoon.
Overnight temperatures will become quite cold as well, dropping into the low 20s and teens. Wind Chills will also be a factor into Tuesday night with values into the teens and single digits across much of the region.
