School Buses Might Be Late for Pick-Up Friday Morning

School district officials said the weather has caused several accidents on Street Road, impeding the buses' route of travel.

Winter Weather Hits Southampton

Share your snow pics as winter storm Khan brings winter weather to Southampton.

Snow showers courtesy of winter storm Khan have hit the Southampton area, and a Winter Weather Advisory has been issued, according to the National Weather Service. A Winter Weather Advisory will remain in effect until 1 a.m. on Saturday, Jan. 25, according to the weather service. An expected 1 to 2 inches of snow is expected to accumulate.

A Week Of Winter Ahead

Winter's making a prolonged appearance this week...and it could snow more than once before the week is out.

The incoming cold regime will bring some rather cold temperatures by Philadelphia standards to our region ― highs on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday may not break 30 degrees as we get in the grip of some pretty cold air across the eastern half of the nation.  This cold has been largely in the Great Basin so far this month ― parts of Nevada are running more than twenty degrees below normal!  Temperatures here won't be that cold, but could go down to ten degrees colder than average over the coming week. Along with the incoming cold, light snow and flurries could cross the region later on Monday with a weak clipper and also on Wednesday with a relatively weak disturbance.  Monday's system may be more substantive than Wednesday's but either …

Snow Possible Tuesday, Chilly Rest Of Week

A crisp week of weather is ahead of us...and potential for some light snow on Tuesday in the forecast.

This month is shaping up as not only our first month of below average temperatures since August of last year, but also, potentially, the coldest November since the late 1990s.   Before you fret and wonder if this is the beginning of a long, cold winter of discontent, November is not necessarily a harbinger of what winter will bring. Several cold Novembers have been followed by warm winters (2007, 1997, 1996 to name three over the last couple of decades). This November will close on the same chilled note on which it began, as temperatures for the balance of the month will average out a few degrees below normal. Included in that chill this week is the potential for some light snow on Tuesday. At this point, it looks likely that precipitation…

Snow in the Overnight Forecast

The National Weather Service has issued hazardous weather outlook for tonight and into Tuesday.

A slippery morning commute may be in order Tuesday, as the National Weather Service is predicting about an inch of snow accumilation overnight across Bucks and Montgomery Counties.   NWS recently issued a 'Hazardous Weather Outlook" that said an additional inch or so could accumulate Tuesday, possibly mixed with rain. Any remaining snow will probably be washed away by afternoon rain. Here's a look at the NWS' extended forecast for Southampton:
