Forecast models may be too cold at this point, but ice storm criteria could be met north of KABE (Lehigh Valley), mainly northeast PA and northwest NJ.
To be clear, we will be too warm for an ice storm and this will be a predominantly rain event for us in and around the cities of Allentown, Easton, and Bethlehem. But in areas north of the valley cities, some icing may be possible, especially in the Poconos. In any event, we can expect up to an inch of rain late Tuesday and early Wednesday which may cause some poor drainage flooding. Stay tuned for further updates.
