Just wanted to update my blog real quickly to mention the Snow idea being floated by the 12Z and 18Z GFS.  The 12Z and 18Z GFS paint a much colder picture with some moisture from a developing coastal low.  This would mean a decent Snow in the Lehigh Valley with a possible light snow accumulation in Philly Metro.

The 18Z NAM (GARBAGE RUN) is the first one in range for Friday and shows nothing!!!!!

I want to see what the 0Z runs tonight show before I totally discount the notion however I think chances of accumulationg Snow in Philadelphia Metro are less than 10%.  The lehigh valley could see a light accumulation and the poconos should watch the situation closely.

Why?

1)  Temperatures tommorow will push 80 in the metro area and without a cold surface the snow will have a very hard time accumulating even if it snows!

2)  If this happens it MUST be at night, if it is during the day FORGET ABOUT IT! 

We shall see but one thing for sure we have a cold weekend ahead!!!!
