The precipitation will start mid-morning and continue through Saturday afternoon, according to a NWS forecast. Along with the snow comes cold.

“Colder air moving in will bring Saturday night lows down to the single digits north and mid teens south. Temperatures arenโ€™t expected to rise above freezing on Sunday, and another cold night is expected Sunday night,” NWS forecasters predict.

Then a warming trend begins on Monday, with high temperatures โ€œsoaringโ€ into the 50s by the end of the week,” a storm briefing package from the NWS says.

The snow comes just a day after a major storm dumped about a foot of snow throughout the area. In anticipation of the cold weather, Bucks County has issued a Code Blue advisory.

NWS warns that traveling conditions that have been difficult to negotiate already could become hazardous due to the potential for snow turning to rain then to ice combined with low visibility conditions.

The advisory is in effect until 6 p.m. Saturday night.
