Hour-By-Hour: Fierce Winds, Ice, Snow to Wallop Wayne

Wayne will face another bout of fierce winter weather this weekend, as a storm carrying more snow, ice, and rain travels to New Jersey and Pennsylvania, forecasters predict.

The National Weather Service has issued a “Wind Chill Advisory” alert, saying wind chill temperatures will drop to as low as 15 below Thursday night and Friday morning, and gusts will move up to 35 mph.

Temperatures will sink to dangerous lows Thursday night in Wayne, dropping to 3 degrees with wind chill values as low as -10, according to the National Weather Service. The bitter cold will be amplified by wind gusts climbing to 28 miles-per-hour.

Friday’s sunny skies will be met with temperatures that will only reach 13 degrees, though the wind chill will make it feel like -15. Wind gusts are expected to reach 24 miles-per-hour during the day with a low around -1 degree Friday night.

Snow will fall in Wayne during the day and through the night Saturday with less than an inch falling during the day and 3 to 5 inches of snow accumulating before Sunday morning. A mix of freezing rain and snow will fall on Sunday.

While this will be a warmer storm compared to last weekend, some snow and ice will fall on areas hit with the same from the storm last weekend in the Central and Eastern states - creating potentially more dangerous conditions.

Snow, a wintry mix or even rain will raise problems beyond that of slippery travel and airline delays.

AccuWeather Meteorologist Mark Paquette, said in a news release: “We are very concerned about the added weight triggering a new round of roof collapses in New England and parts of upstate New York.”

Should a heavy amount of freezing rain occur versus sleet, there could be downed trees and numerous power outages to contend with, Accuweather said.
