| episode_narrative | The second in a series of low pressure systems over the western Atlantic brought heavy snow to Southeast Pennsylvania during the nighttime and early morning hours on the 2nd and 3rd. The fortuitous timing of the heavy snow falling after the end of the Friday evening commute held the number of traffic accidents down. In spite of this, there were about 200 snow related accidents in the Greater Philadelphia Metropolitan Area. One of the worst occurred in Upper Pottsgrove Township (Montgomery County) involving two cars. Three people were seriously injured. Accumulations averaged six inches across Southeast Pennsylvania and four to five inches in the Southern Poconos. A few representative accumulations included 8.5 inches in Southampton, 8 inches in Perkasie, 7 inches in Downingtown and Williams Township, 6 inches in Pottstown and Doylestown, 5.1 inches at Philadelphia International Airport, 5 inches at the Lehigh Valley International Airport and 4 inches in Jim Thorpe and Palm. |
