It might, you certainly have a good chance of at least staying snow while the heaviest precip of the event is moving through right now. There is some signs of mixing in SW Clearfield county on the dual pol products but I think your pretty established in the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard of 93 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 State College has reported snow for the last 6 hours with 1 mile or less visibility, yet the point & click forecast just says Rain. Are they looking out of their window up there at CTP headquarters? Lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawatch Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Non accumulating snow here all afternoon. 2001kx good to see you picking up some snow. Mountain top around Waterville about 3" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001kx Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 2.25 on that chair and roughly 2" or so in other spots...but it just switched to rain / sleet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crossbowftw3 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Straddling the PA border in Sullivan County and thus far nothing is sticking. I envision by sunset things will begin to stick. Looking for 2-4 before the warm air punches in and causes us to mix sometime after midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the changeover yea the dual pol is really showing it now, and also how the UNV region is hanging on. There is actually accumulating snow starting to show on the overpasses on the I-99 cams all the way down to Port Matilda as well as a crash between Skytop and the Grays Woods exit near State College.

Yea they probably should have added a tier of counties to the advisory as the I-80 corridor has been showing it on the ground all afternoon. State College had a little bit on the ground early before that heavy burst of precip moved in. PennDOT being pretty proactive and has I-80 Bellefonte to Dubois as well as I-99 from I-80 to Bellefonte under a 45mph restriction. Probably would've been a Friday evening debacle had there been regular traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blizzard of 93 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Yes, good point, it could have been worse in normal times. It’s a shame that truckers, essential workers & people shopping for essentials could not get a better heads up for this event in the State College region. 7pm State College Ob is Heavy Snow with .25 mile visibility & No Advisory.

Itstrainingtime Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Congrats to everyone getting snow. Normally I would be at least somewhat jealous but I have been done with snow for some time now.

I had been pretty content moving on from the bad winter and looking forward to warmer spring weather but the accumulating stuff missed me here by about 20 miles today and the alternative has been 35-37ºF moderate to heavy rain all afternoon/evening. I personally would've rathered the out of season 2-5" of concrete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always stings a little bit when there is good snow not too far from your home, while your own yard gets cold rain. Like you said, this was close to being a CTP wide historic late season event if we had a slightly better track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
