Matt Moore is indeed bailing from WGAL, traffic anchor Britney Garzillo as well. This may even go back to the Eastern days but wasn't there a dude (Zak maybe?) who was really sharp and left due to too much drama?

CTP showing 1 -3 here with sleet mixing around 4 PM. I'm guessing they are waiting for the 12Z suite before issuing products. On a totally unrelated note, the February natural gas futures have absolutely tanked. Guess the traders do not see big arctic chill next month.

That's pretty accurate. Just the VERY tips of the grass visible. Definitely an over performer down my way.

So much for my "just slush on the grass" call...

Yep, mixing here. Radar looking fairly healthy. Maybe some grassy slush possible down this way.

SPS issued for the region stating gusts of 60 to 80 mph possible with squall line passage. " A line of severe thunderstorms is expected to cross Central Pennsylvania, roughly between 5 and 10 pm. Some areas will see damaging wind gusts of 60 to 80 mph along this line of storms. Given how strong the winds are in the lower levels of the atmosphere, isolated tornadoes are also a possibility.
