PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Winter weather advisories and storm warnings have been posted for much of Pennsylvania as a storm bearing a wintry mix of precipitation rolls into the commonwealth.
The National Weather Service says snow, sleet and areas of freezing rain and ice are expected later Tuesday in areas from western to northeastern Pennsylvania.
The Pottstown region is expected to see heavy rain Wednesday afternoon that could cause localized flooding before freezing up or turning to snow.
Accumulations of two to six inches are expected in portions of western and central Pennsylvania with some ice accumulations, and one to two inches in parts of eastern and northeastern Pennsylvania along with ice on higher elevations.
Hazardous travel conditions are expected along with possible power outages with conditions improving later in the day Wednesday, which as the day before Thanksgiving is traditionally one of the busiest travel days of the year.
