Hold everything.

The newest weather data shows we will dodge the worst of the snowfall in the Philadelphia area -- this will no longer be a "crippling" storm for us, but it is still considered a significant snowstorm.

North of us -- especially up in the New York area -- is where the heaviest snowfall will occur.

We will still have limited periods of heavy snow.

WHY WE ARE DOWNGRADING THIS STORM:

Here is the revised timeline as of noon on Thursday:

  • Noon - 5 p.m. -- Light Snow
  • 5 p.m. - 10 p.m. -- Light Snow/Some Wind
  • 10 p.m. - 7 a.m. Friday -- Heavier Snow/Wind
  • Noon - 8pm Friday --Light Snow

New snowfall predictions:

  • Less than 2 Inches = Extreme Southern Jersey and Southern Delaware
  • 3 - 5 Inches = Wilmington, Del. and parts of South Jersey
  • 4 - 8 Inches = Philadelphia, some Pa. suburbs and northern sections of South Jersey
  • 8 - 12 Inches = Trenton/Allentown
