According to the NWS, a “quick-moving system” will bring snow to the area early Wednesday (primarily for areas near and north of the I-78 corridor), with forecasters warning residents of slick conditions that may be present in their morning commute.
"A clipper storm will track across the Great Lakes Tuesday and Wednesday, spreading a swath of snow from northern Minnesota into New England," AccuWeather said. "Farther south, including Washington, D.C., Philadelphia and New York City, snow can mix with rain as the storm moves through the region."
