UPDATED SNOWFALL TOTALS Based on the latest data coming in we've pushed the 8-12" band over the I-95 corridor and added in a jackpot of 12" along the central Jersey coast. This storm looks to be a powerhouse and tucked right in near the coast. Blizzard conditions seem likely.

PennDOT and Philadelphia Department of Streets are working hard plowing to keep highways and roads passable. Please avoid unnecessary travel so they have room to safely work. If traveling, use caution and give yourself at least 6 car lengths behind snow response equipment.

SNOWFALL TOTALS The highest totals look to be northwest of I-95 where there will be limited mixing with sleet. For areas to the southeast an extended period of sleet with even some freezing rain and plain rain will cut totals sharply.

Saddened to hear this! I interviewed Dr. West’s family and her biographer in 2022. At that time she was no longer doing interviews. An amazing woman. wtvr.com/news/local-news/how…
This morning the world lost a pioneer in Dr Gladys West, she passed peacefully alongside her family and friends and is now in heaven with her loved ones. We thank you in advance for all of the love and prayers you have and will continue to provide

We are closely monitoring the situation at the DMV in New Castle, and I want to be clear that there is no active threat to the public at this time. Law enforcement acted swiftly to secure the scene, and the shooter has been confirmed deceased. State and local law enforcement are on the scene and coordinating response efforts. Please avoid the area and follow guidance from authorities. We will share updates as they are confirmed.
