Rain first, Poconos snow later in Philadelphia's storm forecast

FOX 29's Scott Williams adds coastal flooding risks and a sharp weekend cooldown to the late-week nor'easter outlook.

Potential nor'easter to bring rain, wind, and even some snow to region

Scott Williams has a qualification for anyone drawn to the snow in FOX 29 Philadelphia's forecast: this looks primarily like a rain event. The flakes are a possibility for the higher elevations of the Poconos, arriving behind the wetter part of the storm.

His update drew about 62,000 views in its first ten hours, already far beyond the station's usual full-day audience for a regular video. It follows the developing-storm forecast from Kathy Orr that we reported here, with Williams laying out the expected sequence from Thursday's rain to the colder weekend.

The forecast calls for roughly half an inch of rain, wind and a risk of coastal flooding. As colder air trails the system, a computer model shows the possibility of light snow in the Poconos from Friday into Saturday morning. That is a mountain snow chance, not a forecast of widespread snow across Philadelphia.

The temperature change reaches beyond the mountains: Williams's seven-day outlook takes afternoon highs from the mild midweek weather into the forties over the weekend.

For co-anchor Jen, who is planning a trip to Penn State, the practical question is what to pack. Williams recommends a parka. Her planned camouflage snowboarding outfit then becomes the subject of some gentle studio teasing, with the meteorologist asking to see the finished look.
