Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service State College PA 315 AM EST Wed Dec 16 2020 SHORT TERM /9 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/... Main changes to the short term grids (the main event) were to nudge the axis of the heaviest accums to the NW by 20-30 miles and add a little, too. This is in line with a slight shift west of the dry slot and best slant-wise instability (for the banded structures). Latest model QPF and SLRs argue for even higher numbers with State College and Williamsport in an axis of 24+" accums. We will not take it to that extreme of a change in either axis of the highest accums nor the SF totals. But, a nudge in that direction seems prudent.

So true. Usually pray for clippers and our occasional March blockbuster. 1993 was spectacular for SC. 27” and 5’ drifts, if I recall right.

I’d shoot for Sullivan County. Accommodations are sparse, but if you can get a room at the Eagles Mere Inn it’s a sweet spot. Could be a bit pricey, but last time I was there they had great food. And Eagles Mere is a very cool little town that gets lots of snow. EDIT: Closed due to Covid.
