  1. Light snow this morning with cars and grass covered-LOL. Ready for the 60's! Last flakes of 2024-25 winter?????
  2. WWAs just to the east of me up here. Current forecast now shows the potential for 2-5 inches of dense, wet snow over higher elevations (> 1900 feet) in Delaware, Sullivan, Pike and Wayne counties by the time the precipitation winds down Saturday afternoon.
  3. Rain before midnight, then rain and snow likely. Low around 34. Southeast wind around 10 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. Little or no snow accumulation expected.
  4. 30 Currently. January Weather! Tonight is parka weather. Today Isolated snow showers after 2pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 34. Breezy, with a northwest wind around 23 mph, with gusts as high as 36 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%. Tonight Partly cloudy, with a low around 21. Northwest wind 14 to 18 mph, with gusts as high as 28 mph.
  5. Tonight, a subtle 500 mb shortwave moves into the Northeast bringing another round of precipitation. Recent trends in towards a flatter wave and a little farther south. There is enough cold air in place and with the precipitation occurring overnight, snow is the likely ptype. With the flatter wave, the favorable dynamics for snow banding is less likely so snowfall rates are expected to be on the lighter side, likely a half inch per hour or less. Snow amounts were also shifted south so the Southern Tier, Catskills, and NEPA are the areas that will see some light snow accumulations tonight.
  6. BGM 340 AM update... The short term is looking wintry as a long wave trough moves into the Northeast with cold air advecting in. Models are honing in on a quick moving 500 mb shortwave Sunday night that could bring some widespread light snow. A strong 250 mb jet overhead along with low level frontogenesis indicates that there could be some banding with the overnight snow leading to some locally higher snowfall rates though with the speed of the flow, the high rates may only last a few hours before moving off to the NE.
  7. I know some people geek out over this stuff so posting from BGM. Big over performer up here IMBY as we are closing in on 3". now showers continue across the area, driven by 2 separate features that is quite interesting. Below 800mb, NW flow has allowed Finger Lake effect snow bands to develop across the central Southern Tier, extending north into Chenango, Cortland and Tompkins county. These bands have picked up in intensity over the past hour and should remain this way through the afternoon hours as a 500mb closed low moves south of the region, injecting added moisture to the lake effect bands but also causing enough lift to bring widespread light snow showers to much of the region. The 2 different processes can be seen well in radar returns; low level, stronger returns representing lake effect snow are moving from NW to SE, while the broad, synoptic scale light snow driven by the mid-level low can be seen spreading from S to N as the low moves to the east. Snowfall amounts were a little tricky in this set up given the 2 different processes at play, but it looks like a widespread 1-3 inches can be expected into the overnight hours across much of the area, with higher amounts across higher elevations of the Twin Tiers as both lake effect and synoptic snow will fall here
  8. 19 currently with a dew of 10. They have highlighted more snow and then sleet up here. 2-3"
  9. The National Weather Service in Binghamton has issued a * Snow Squall Warning for... Southwestern Susquehanna County in northeastern Pennsylvania... Northwestern Lackawanna County in northeastern Pennsylvania... Southern Bradford County in northeastern Pennsylvania... Wyoming County in northeastern Pennsylvania... * Until 800 AM EST. * At 718 AM EST, a dangerous snow squall was located along a line extending from Rush to near Ogdensburg, moving east at 45 mph. HAZARD...Intense bursts of heavy snow. Gusty winds leading to blowing snow and rapidly falling visibility. Wind gusts up to 35 mph. SOURCE...Radar indicated. IMPACT...Travel will become difficult and potentially dangerous within minutes. Locations impacted include... Falls, Vernon, Rush, Tunkhannock, Springville, Glenburn, Dalton, Wilmot, Hollenback, and Factoryville. This includes the following highway exits... Pennsylvania Interstate 81 between 199 and 202.
  10. Got down to -7 on the hill here in Clarks Green but some of the temps in NEPA are crazy. Temperatures did drop even a little lower than originally expected with numerous sites in CNY and NE PA now as low as -5 to -15F...with some of the coldest spots between -15 and -20F at this time! Still Water Dam in Susquehanna county PA has reached -21F, Roxbury in Delaware county also -21F and the Cornell site near Harford NY reach -22F... these are the coldest readings so far, and temperatures may drop another 1-2 degrees as we approach daybreak. Even the city of Binghamton has dropped to -6F at this hour, Scranton/Wilkes- Barre is between -6 to -9F in the valley
  11. LOL- I am in the "Advisory Area" PAZ044-047-048-072-081945- /O.NEW.KBGM.CW.Y.0001.250109T0000Z-250109T1500Z/ Lackawanna-Luzerne-Pike-Southern Wayne- Including the cities of Hazleton, Wilkes-Barre, Scranton, Honesdale, and Milford 245 AM EST Wed Jan 8 2025 ...COLD WEATHER ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 7 PM THIS EVENING TO 10 AM EST THURSDAY... * WHAT...Very cold wind chills as low as 12 below expected. * WHERE...Lackawanna, Luzerne, Pike, and Southern Wayne Counties. * WHEN...From 7 PM this evening to 10 AM EST Thursday. * IMPACTS...The cold wind chills as low as 15 below zero could result in hypothermia if precautions are not taken. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Higher elevations of these counties will have the best chance to see the coldest temperatures as winds are expected to be the strongest across these areas.
  12. Tonight A chance of snow showers, mainly after 7pm. Cloudy, with a low around 11. Wind chill values as low as -6. Northwest wind 16 to 18 mph, with gusts as high as 32 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible. Definitely winter.
