Bernie Rayno said this morning that he thinks the sleet will have a tough time making inroads on these negative dewpoints. But he said he's been wrong and right before on similar situations. That's his personal opinion.

Nws introduced snow possibly mixed with sleet tomorrow in my forecast for tomorrow evening from 6to10pm

That sucks you have to deal with that summer heat and humidity. Come back home to reality where it's 14 here.

Sometimes the GFS gets lost. Remember just a few days ago where it has the storm. I guess we'll see if the models come around.

2.5 was my low.

This is gonna be brutal. After years of relative so called mild winters, this is gonna sting.

It's been a while since we had a deep snowcover and 30mph winds to deal with. Rural areas like where I live will not be on a priority list of being kept clear. As crews will be focused on main arteries.

From what I seen it looks like blowing and drifting will be a concern after 8am on Monday into Tuesday morning with 30 mph gusts.

US National Weather Service State College PA 24 JAN 2026 @ 6:45 AM EST: Arctic air has returned to the region and will set the stage for frozen precipitation to fall with the approaching storm.

I know this week on tv somebody was worried about the strain on the power grid with these brutal temps this coming week. But hadn't heard anything since.

Especially if it's a random tree that decides to fall at the worst possible time in a remote rural area that repair crews will have trouble getting to

I hope the power doesn't go out with these brutal temps during and after the storm. A lot of people will be in trouble.

They are talking about the dreaded dry slot showing up.

Idk either what they are using. It looks like my start time is around 5am, earlier it was around 2am.

ABC27 thinks snow could be done by 8:30pm Sunday night.

Down to 10 degrees already here.

And theres still more time for this to change till Saturday night and Sunday.

ABC27 going on the lower side while my NWS is 15-22 snow

Your forecast is almost identical to mine.

DT will have his first guess map out in about a hour...can't wait!

Nice summer like weather.

How can they forget or not want to remember?

The American Storm @BigJoeBastardi · 3h Euro operational sees that blizzard threat I am talking about for next weekend, hence the 15 day snow totals jacked up all the way into the Carolinas, and a Fla freeze after No changes on the first storm. Everyone is on top of it now anyway
