So for all us Snowlovers we get ONE MORE!!!!!

The front is in the process of going through and temps are tumbling, that trend will continue with showers.  The threat of Thunder Storms is waning and now it is time to watch for SNOW???

The GFS and NAM models are right on the border with temps Rain/Snow.....it is real close if you look at the models......if temps end up being lower than what the models show we are hammered with Snow......if temps end up being higher than what the models show we end up with a heavy rain storm.....if the models have the temps right we have a mixed bag.

My thoughts as have been all along is Philly Metro will see a more WET event than a FROZEN event.  The models have been too low with temps for the last 3-5 days and that is common in March.  If that is the case here we get heavy rain.  That is where I am leaning.  I do think the backend would be Wet Snow however back end snow is very tough to call.

My current thought for Philly Metro S&E as of 2:30 PM Thursday is:

Rain 1-1.25", Wet Snow on the backend changing over late Friday Morning 1-2"

My Current thought for N&W Burbs of Philly:

Rain 1", Wet Snow on the backend changing over Friday Morning 2-4"

My Current thought for Lehigh Valley, Berks County, Lancaster County:

Rain changing to Snow by Daybreak 3-6"

My Current thought for the Poconos:

May begin as rain with a quick changeover to Snow........6-10"

I will be updating around 6-8PM tonight......alot to Nowcast, another fun Storm!!!!
