A forecast on PhillyWx.com’s Facebook page calls for the clipper storm to bring snow to the area starting between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m. The weather page calls for the snow to end between noon and 3 p.m.
“While not a high impact storm in terms of snow amounts, its expected arrival during the morning rush hour will make for a fun latter half of the morning commute for the western suburbs,” the weather page said.
Here’s the forecast from the National Weather Service:
