As Sunday evening approaches, some parts of the Delaware Valley are going to experience a tricky situation that was predicted  by a rodent on February 2nd. The forecast is calling for snowfall to start around 5 pm and wrap up by 10 pm.

        Now, let's talk specifics. The areas likely to get the most snow are Lehigh Valley, Berks, and parts of Bucks and Montgomery counties in Pennsylvania, along with Mercer County in New Jersey. These places might see a very light coat of snow!

        The flurries will first hit Berks County and the Lehigh Valley around dinnertime. Folks in upper Bucks, Montgomery, and Mercer counties should expect the snow to arrive by 7 pm. Then, the snow will move slightly eastwards to Chester, Delaware, and Burlington counties, but not before 7 to 8 pm, however, everyone is back to clear skies by 9 to 10 pm.

        Now, let's talk numbers. The Poconos will see the most snow, with nearly 3 inches. Allentown will get about an inch, Reading will get a half-inch, and Doylestown will see a quarter-inch. But Philadelphia? It looks like the city will be missing out on this snowfall.

        The weekend's snowy weather is followed by a transition in the forecast toward a few other stuff.  Wednesday evening will bring some sleet, which will eventually turn into rain.  This is a prime example of how weather can change in a heartbeat and it is important to stay alert.

        The Mid-Atlantic region is no stranger to winter weather. The Delaware Valley, which includes parts of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, experiences a range of weather patterns throughout the year. Winter in this region can be quite unpredictable, with snowstorms, sleet, and freezing rain all possible within a short period. This makes it important for residents to stay informed about weather updates, especially during the winter months.

        Why does the weather seem so crazy? The answer lies in the geography of the region. The Delaware Valley is influenced by both the Atlantic Ocean and the Appalachian Mountains, which can cause rapid changes in weather patterns. This means that even a small shift in temperature or wind direction can lead to dramatic changes in weather conditions.
