>> announcer: nbc 10 news starts now. >> right now, at 11:00, the snow is on its way. and its arrival comes at the worst possible time, the morning rush. e. >> tonight, we have you covered. what you can expect in the morning, down the shore in delaware and across the philadelphia region. >> good evening. i'm jim rosenfield. >> street crews are gearing up and have a long night ahead eqtr(t&háhp &hc ing and brace yourself, this is just the start as temperatures drop to single digits this week. >> we are keeping a close eye on this radar. right now, the storm, headed our way, is in the midwest.

we're going to take a live picture of indianapolis, where snow is already falling. as you can see, on the roads there. squl >> george spencer is in montgomery county. we begin with first alert meteorologist sheena parvieen. >> this is why we have a first alert weather day out for the morning hours because that is the time we expect the snow to be moving in. this will be snow during the morning rush. this is why we have a first alert out. not a lot of snow, about 1-2 inches across the area, but the timing is not good. aside from this it will be cold enough for any snow to be sticking on the roadways. be very careful as you're driving tomorrow morning. here's the snow again. it is moving in this direction pretty quickly. as we go through tomorrow morning, that's when we'll continue to see that snow getting closer. winter weather advisories out for most of the area. this does mean about 1-2 inches this goes until the afternoon hours tomorrow.

again, pretty much, that covers the entire area. as question go from 6:00 to 9:00 in the morning, you will be in the teens, light e light snowfalling here around the philadelphia, i-95 corridor area. and, in new jersey delaware, temperatures in about the mid 20s, light snow beginning to fall there, too. again, this is the rush hour time frame. so, because those temperatures are going to be below freezing, another reason why, again, we have that first alert out. snow will be sticking on the roadways. so that will make it possibly a little slippery out there. certainly something to keep in miepd. take it slower, maybe leave earlier. it is going to be kind of a messy commute for some people. >> so people who make it into work should they think about leaving early? lunchtime, maybe? >> that's a good question. most people when they get to work they see the snowfalling, they want to try to get home because they think it will get worst. at this time the snow will be ending before the evening rush.

so best suggestion is to stay at work. >> and what can they expect when they leave around 5:00 in the emping? >> again, when you leave at 5:00 in the evenings, it will be cold enough for some slick spots. the roads, i'm sure, are getting taken care of. wu but, again, untreated roads, you want to be very cautious. >> just as nbc 10 is keeping you ahead of this storm, so are the road crews: >> george? >> yeah jacqueline the road crews will arrive just about one hour from now. the immediate concern, tomorrow morning, is snow. but that will be followed by a brutal cold snap that will really have homeowners paying to fend it off. >> bundled up against a cold wind tonight, we watched crews installing a front plow on this truck before it hits the streets overnight. the winter weather 2015 is coming, ready or not. >> i know it's going to get really cold.

>> are you ready? >> no. i hate it. i don't like it at all. >> we're ready, set, go. we've been ready. >> penndot is prepared. act 2 about 200 trucks will plow and salt across southeastern pennsylvania's five counties. >> we're concerned about the timing of the storm baufz it may occur during the morning rush hour. >> after the snow we'll face bitter cold with gas and oil prices falling, we wondered whether the same would be true for your heating bill. heating oil customers will notice lower pricing. peco, for one, says the timing and amount of its natural gas purchases alock withng with weather impact price. utility's average home heating customer will see a 3.5% price increase this month or about $5.50 more. it's just a cost of living for

andrew hagel. >> i guess you've just got to keep going with it. >> a little flash back to laes winter? >> yeah, last winter was rough. >> reporter: far rougher than this winter so far. penndot told us it has used only about one fifth the amount of salt it had used about this same time a year ago. live tonight in plymouth meeting, george spencer, nbc 10 news. >> and from the jersey shore, up to camden county nbc 10's denise nicano joins us from rt. 70 in cherry hill. >> crews tackled the first storm of the year by placing brine here on the roadways. they will try to ensure a safe morning commute. crews have cold but most importantly, dry conditions working in their favor on the eve of the first significant snowfall of the season to hit south jersey and the shore. >> everybody will come in early

and be all hands on deck. >> it's unbelievable. it's one extreme toet next. >> with temperatures taking a tumble and dropping by more than half in 24 hours, anne craig is thinking about ways to keep warm. >> so that i don't have to go out tomorrow. >> she's getting some last-minute staples tomorrow at may's landing inging atlantic county. >> i notice that the roads had been primed so i knew that it could be snow or freezing -- something freezing. >> crews with at lantic and gloucester counties brining major roads and highways as you can see from the thin lines on the atlantic city expressway. >> we'll have the entire county work force, our public works department and our parks department, that's over a hundred personnel and over 70 6c of r)jng the snow commute is lighting a fire under jenna dunn who is planning on cutting her trip to atlantic city casinos short.

and delaware for tomorrow morning through tomorrow afternoon. and, again, about 1-2 inches of snow. so the thing is the timing isn't very good right during the morning commute. that's why e why we're issuing the first alert. here's the storm right now. very soon, it will be into parts of western pa and then early tomorrow morning, we'll start to see that moving in with temperatures well below freezing at that point. tonight, we do stay dry, overnight, clouds start to increase. and then we go into tomorrow morning, 6:00, 7 cloek in the morning, you notice the snow entering into our western counties. also, the poconos by 7:00 a.m. this is the time you're leaving in the morning, most of the areas should be fine. but, quickly, this snow should continue to spread. by 9:00 in the morning, a little more widespread. it will be on the lighter side. but, remember, tempberatures below freezing. 1 p.m. we could still have a good amount of snow around.

notice how it's tapering off west to east. and then closer to the 5:00 p.m. hour, the snow really starts to taper off. so for the emping commute, it actually looks a lot better. we could still have some snow on the roadways, especially untreated roads. but if you're heading to work and you see the snowfalling when you're at work i would suggest you stay until the evening commute. that's going to be a better time to get on the roadways. accumulations are going to be small. about 1-2 inches across the area. take a look at what our future temperature map shows us. here's wednesday. here's thursday morning. arctic air takes over a lot of the country, much of the midwest into the northeast. our actual temperatures come thursday morning. this is thursday, 7:00 a.m. it is going to be very cold as we go into thursday morning. here's what it will actually feel like. it's not going to feel like the numbers i just showed you. it will feel like this, well below zero. allen town etown could feel like a minus 12 philadelphia could

feel like a minus 20. it is going to be cold later on this week. 20 for the low in philadelphia, 15 north and west. tomorrow the light snow moves in the morning lasting until early afternoon and then tapering off, theemperatures stay in the low to upper 20s. then, wednesday, highs in the upper 20s. there you see that single digit temperature thursday morning, 9 degrees. but when you factor in the wind, it will feel below zero. this is the coldest morning we've had so far. if you remember last year last winter, we did have a couple mornings, quite a few, where we had temperatures windchills below zero and we're getting this now for the first time in 2015, our mornings will be feeling below zero. so it is going to get very cold after tomorrow's snow. >> snow, then the frigid air coming. >> yes, what a week, right? >> yep. >> to start off in the few year. >> and we'll be on at 4:00 a.m. with the very latest in weather and breaking traffic.
