Snow falls on Friday in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, New Jersey. Get times and totals – NBC10 Philadelphia

Here we are, snowing again in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware!

As the Philadelphia area continues to deal with slick sidewalks and icy patches on the roads left by the snow that fell Monday night into Tuesday morning, another blast of snow is expected to make travel more difficult on Friday.

The NBC10 First Alert weather team has issued 🚨 First Alert 🚨 for snow accumulation leading to slippery conditions and travel delays for the entire region from South Jersey to the Lehigh Valley on Friday, January 19, 2024.

Here's what to know about the timing and effects of the snow, which is expected to fall as snow falls across the region:

When will it start snowing? ❄️

You may not get consistent snowfall at the beginning of this season, but light snow should fall as the day goes on.

The first snow showers are expected to move in around 4 a.m. to 5 a.m., and the snow is expected to be light and scattered during the morning commute.

Snowfall becomes steady as the morning progresses and continues to be steady into the afternoon.

The snow is expected to subside during the evening.

Unlike the storm from Monday into Tuesday where a wintry mix and sleet fell on the snow, this is expected to be a snow event in most neighborhoods. Exceptions will be near the coasts of Delaware and New Jersey where some rain mix should mix in and limit snowfall the closer you get to the water.
