93-3-3-WMR Audio on Demand presents the Preston and Steve show podcast. And now, Preston and Steve's news update with Kathy Romano.

All right, today is Friday, January 28th. Good morning, Kathy. Good morning in the news this morning. Obviously, like you mentioned, Preston, everyone talking about the snow that's on the way.

So a blizzard warning is in effect for parts of our area. It goes into effect at 7 p.m. tonight and continues through 7 p.m. on Saturday.

The National Weather Service issued a winter storm warning for the coastal regions of New Jersey and Delaware.

You don't hear that word blizzard kicked around that often.

No, it's almost like nostalgic. And they also said, I heard this morning for the Jersey Shore that that's not, it's odd, that there's going to be a blizzard warning for the shore that you don't often see that. Yeah. And what was the name you were using yesterday? It was Cleveland's theme or something. No, the Saskatchewan. On Screamer. That's not what we're getting. Oh, okay. Not the Toronto Balloon Not like you were saying. No, this is the Noriester that is happening. It's not the Gillespie. There's Alberta Clipper and Saskatchewan Screamer and the Manitoba Mallor are the legitimate ones. And you can go with Toronto Balloon knot if you prefer.

Or the Little Rock Blumpkin.

Most of the region, including most of New Jersey.

Most of the region, including most of New Jersey and southeastern Pennsylvania are included in the winter storm watch.

The Nor'easter could bring up to 18 inches of snow.

The forecast is calling for the Jersey Shore to get 12 to 18 inches.

6 to 12 in South Jersey and Delaware.

Philadelphia and surrounding counties are looking at 3 to 6 inches and then Lehigh Valley is seeing only about 1 to 3 inches.

So, Kathy, so most of what's going to happen is going to happen after second rush hour, right?

Like even rush hour. So it's basically a weekend storm. Yeah, they're saying to try, well, you know, it's 7 o'clock. So if it's a normal rush hour, people are still on the road at that time. So try to leave early. But towards the end, yeah, they're saying if you can, you know, be off of the road by 7 o'clock and, you know, that way you can let the crews do their job.

I got a 630 road. try to leave early. But towards the end, yeah, they're saying if you can, you know, be off of the road by seven o'clock

and, you know,

that way you can let the cruise

to do their job.

I got a 6.30 reservation

for dinner tonight. Oh, nobody's going to be there. Or my, my belated birthday with some friends. You know, I think you'll be fine because it's just at the beginning stages.

It's going to take several hours for the real stuff.
