F5TornadoF5 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Just went outside, light rain although I could have swore I saw a flake or two...might be my weenie snow googles though. Very cold rain. Temp is right around 34.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallow Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 We got to get this rain out of here. Thinking this next heavy batch moving in is sleet or a rain/sleet mix. Hopefully it will help us push the warm layer down towards freezing. Discouraging how slowly the surface temperature is falling in State College, but perhaps this batch can do a number on that, too.

It's associated with some lower values of correlation coefficient so there's a good chance of at least some mixing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F5TornadoF5 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Sleet mixing in again here. Think right around when I walk over for the PSU women's playoff volleyball game should start to see some flakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mallow Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Hard to tell for sure, but it looks like there might be a good coating of sleet/snow on the road at the Gallitzin Interchange on Hwy 22 just west of Altoona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Holding nice and steady here with a temp of 36. Any ideas how long it's going to take for the colder air and changeover to make it to the eastern part of region? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Here is where my frustration lies, and why I sometimes ask IMBY questions. This is just tonight's forecast, Sunday into Monday is just as bad. As you can see, there is quite a variation in the forecasts, and it happens quite often. PHL's forecast for Lansford: (5 miles away) Tonight Periods of rain, snow, freezing rain, and sleet before 4am, then a chance of snow. Low around 25. North wind 8 to 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total nighttime ice accumulation of less than a 0.1 of an inch possible. Total nighttime snow and sleet accumulation of 1 to 3 inches possible. CTP's forecast for Tamaqua: Tonight Rain, freezing rain, and sleet before 2am, then snow showers likely. Low around 28. West wind 5 to 9 mph becoming east after midnight. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total nighttime ice accumulation of less than a 0.1 of an inch possible. Total nighttime snow and sleet accumulation of less than a half inch possible.
