even the impact its having right now in the philadelphia area. let's begin with glenn "hurricane" schwartz. >> this storm is still intensifying offshore. this is not the worst of the storm but we're seeing the circulation very clearly on the radar right out into the ocean and the low-pressure center just to the east of the jersey shore. what this is doing is driving the colder air down to the south and so look at these bands of snow coming this way, coming from north jersey and northeastern pennsylvania down toward allentown, buckingham and bucks county getting some of that and even starting to see it getting into abinnington and parts of philadelphia itself. the western side of this storm not producing nearly as much as precipitation. heavier snow in trenton, virtually nothing in delaware at the moment and rain in south jersey. so quite a variety of conditions across the area. as we go through the afternoon as the storm continues to intensify, the darker blue indicating heavier snow and we have an issue here, especially in new jersey closer to t

more than an inch in philadelphia and at the shore. a lot of rain that's going to take time to make its way to the streams and way to the rivers. with the rains is going to continue into the weekend. that's not the only threat from the storm system. the heaviest rain as we and tom morning. there will still be downpours in the afternoon. the biggest threat tomorrow afternoon will be the damaging winds. winds of 50 to 60 miles per hour. the coastal flood threat, that will be ramping up on friday. the worst of it looks set with high tides over the weekend, especially saturday morning from 8:00 to 11:00. moderate, possibly pockets of major flooding possible on saturday and saturday evening. thawing is possible once again. a big storm with a lot of impacts for our area. and tracking it neighborhood by neighborhood. fortunately meteorologist brittney shipp is here to break it down. >> there are a lot of moving parts, and it depends on where you live. some folks will see coastal flooding. some are going to be dealing with really strong wind s

the precipitation long gone rain and snow showers around the philadelphia area and immediate philadelphia suburbs. this is the entire jersey shoreline and the delaware beaches. even though the center of the storm is pulling away, the direction in which the winds are coming in, we're starting to pile the water on here, this morning's high tide is of concern. i've taken this chart. this is the tide information over the next few tide cycles of cape may harbor. it will peak this morning at 8.1 feet that's bordering between moderate and major flooding. flood stage is 5.9 and they are protecting 8.1. this is between moderate and major flooding during this morning's high tide which occurs around 9:00 a.m. each and every tide from that point on will get better and better as the nor'easter pulls away. winds 40 miles per hour in philadelphia. 32 in atlantic city. trenton, 37. dover, 32. lancaster, 29. some locations yesterday had wind speeds close to hurricane force, 79 miles per hour. that was the peak wind reported in dennisville and cape may county. things are quieting down a little bit compared

the i-95 corridor through the middle of philadelphia. conceivably by the time the storm is done, we could see 8 inches in a place like chestnut hill and 2 inches at the airport. those are not the forecast totals but that's the type of differences we could see in a very short distance along that corridor. we go down into delaware, dover, middletown, newark, all looking at some snow right now making its way through the area. again, this is probably going to transition back and forth from snow to rain. we also have storm ranger out there. this is our own radar on wheels. we have stuck it smack dab in the middle of montgomery county where we are expecting some of the highest snowfall totals. it is picking up right on the edge of philadelphia. so, you can see how accurate it is. this is how we will be able to tell all night and throughout the day tomorrow exactly where the snow line is wavering back and forth. norristown right on the edge, going back and forth. pottstown, you will see big snow tomorrow. but, right now you are looking at rain

heavy rain throughout most of the day, with the chain-over in the philadelphia area. definitely into that maybe later toward the p.m. m commute. then overnight tonight. so it is going to be a messy drive for most of the day, for most of the folks across the philadelphia area as we wrap up our work week. and i'm out here live in the weather watcher, meisha, we send it back to you in the studio. >> matt, we've actually got camera shot right now showing snow. this is where we are starting to see that snow actually, 202 at route 100, headlights are moving in the southbound direction, you can see, the snow coming down, past the cameras, so it is starting to switch in certain areas. take it slow, bumper to bumper conditions here. looking like a parking lot, eastbound side, moving a little better than the westbound side, very slow, malfunction traffic lights city avenue at conshohocken state road. and we also have downed street light from earlier accident, in ewing, that we will touch base in just a minute. first an accident in delaware, still out there, 59 north at 495, thr

the steadiest of the light rain is falling tr philadelphia to wilmington. you can see the darker shades of green towards washington. that's about it. we're not looking at heavy rain across the area. this is the first of the bands to move in. the storm is split into two parts. you have the northern part where the energy is. you have the southern part with the moisture. they are going to come together right off the coast. that's when the storm will intensify. the center of low pressure is going to drop very quickly. so it's going to be like a bomb cyclone. it's going to be explosive as far as the winds that pick up by tomorrow. so here we go. here comes the storm system. tonight at 11:00, we have heavy rain in the entire area including the polk knows. by tomorrow morning, it is snow moving into the poconos. that's where the winter storm warnings. we will see a mix across the lehigh valley. rain continuing, but look at the winds beginning to pick up on this thing. now the winds turn more to the north. that's when we're going to see the beaches affected. tomorr
