While it’s not technically a “White Christmas,” some communities in the Delaware Valley received a dusting of snow and freezing rain Tuesday morning.
Areas closer to Philadelphia saw only a trace of powder, but farther north and west in the Lehigh Valley, some spots expanded by more than an inch as a wintry mix moved through the region.
