Discussion              

Low pressure will intensify off the Mid-Atlantic coastline today and push to the northeast reaching near southern New England by early Tuesday as a major storm system.  The Philly metro region will be impacted with occasional rain today and tonight and the precipitation can change to all snow or snow showers by early Tuesday.  Small accumulations are possible from this system; especially, in the northern suburbs (e.g., Bucks County). Winds will also pick up in intensity during the next 24 hours and will be remain quite strong on the back side of the storm from tomorrow through Wednesday. High pressure will edge into the region at mid-week generating some sunshine and it turns milder later in the week.
