Cold temperatures continued

We stayed dry through the work week, but the cold weather lingered.

Temperatures nudged upward to 36 degrees by Friday afternoon, though that was still below the normal high of 42.

Light snow in Philly region Saturday morning 

As we headed into the weekend, our stretch of dry days came to an end.

Clouds increased late Friday ahead of a weak system.

The first scattered snow showers moved in ahead of midnight in some southern parts of the region.

Then early Saturday morning, with temperatures in the 20s, the system brought light scattered snow showers to many of our neighborhoods.

The snowfall was brief and minimal, exiting by late Saturday morning, followed by clearing skies in the afternoon.

How much snow fell on Saturday? 

Thanks to dry air and limited moisture, snowfall amounts were light — most areas saw half an inch or less.

However, parts of Delaware and South Jersey, closer to the system's southern track, picked up a little more.

Saturday afternoon features sunshine but stays cold, with highs in the mid-30s.

What’s the forecast for the Eagles wild card game? 

Sunday remains clear and cold, with highs around 37 degrees. For the Eagles game at 4:30 p.m., temperatures will start in the upper 30s and drop to the lower 30s by the fourth quarter under clear skies. Go Birds
