...WINTER STORM BRINGING SNOW TO THE AREA...

A STRENGTHENING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS MOVING THROUGH WESTERN
PENNSYLVANIA EARLY THIS EVENING...BEFORE MAKING ITS WAY TO NEW
ENGLAND LATER TONIGHT. AS THE STORM CENTER HEADS EAST AND CONTINUES
TO INTENSIFY...STRONG WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS OF 15 TO 25 MPH CAN BE
EXPECTED THROUGH EARLY EVENING...WITH GUSTS RANGING FROM 35 TO 40
MPH.

ADDITIONALLY...AS MUCH COLDER AIR WRAPS IN BEHIND THE STORM SYSTEM...
ANY ONGOING RAIN SHOWERS WILL CHANGE TO SNOW SHOWERS FROM NORTHWEST
TO SOUTHEAST THIS EVENING...AND THEN CONTINUE INTO THE NIGHT. THE
SNOW SHOWERS COMBINED WITH THE WIND COULD BRING BRIEF TIMES OF NEAR
WHITE OUT CONDITIONS THIS EVENING. WHILE MOST PLACES WILL SEE AT
LEAST A DUSTING OF SNOW...ANY MEASURABLE ACCUMULATIONS WILL LIKELY BE
RESTRICTED TO THE HIGHER ELEVATION SURFACES...WITH GENERALLY A HALF
INCH OR LESS OF ACCUMULATIONS EXPECTED IN THE VALLEYS...AND CLOSER
TO AN INCH ON SOME RIDGETOPS. FINALLY...AS TEMPERATURES PLUMMET DOWN
INTO THE TEENS LATER TONIGHT...WIND CHILL READINGS WILL GET DOWN
INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS IN SPOTS EARLY THURSDAY MORNING.
