Blizzard92 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 You nearing warning criteria? I'm not there yet but I'm definitely over the tenth forecasted. Thank goodness its not too windy right now though obviously this event has a larger chance to do damage as it looks like I will not be getting above freezing today. No not warning criteria, but I dropped now to 31.9F as the temperature begins to fall with more ice accretion beginning to occur again from freezing mist/drizzle. I just thought maybe the advisory should be extended a bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSU8315 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Is there a big wreck on I-99? I heard folks were gettin directed off onto old 220 at Bald Eagle. There were several bad wrecks on there -- I passed it going on the southbound side. It was like another world up there. It was near 32 near State College and Altoona, but it was only 27 or 28 from Skytop down to Bald Eagle. There was a lot of fog and even some icy spots on the southbound side. Glad it's switched over to snow now. I've had enough ice for one week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea agreed lol, although the coating of snow we got here has made the roads really bad again and the scanners lighting up with multiple wrecks on the backroads between Bellwood and Altoona.

The early week event will likely be an event similar to todays except that it'll be a bit colder and probably actually be mostly snow. Probably a light snowfall. The late week event has.. of course, went into hiding for the time being on the models. Things just aren't getting as amplified as they were a couple days ago. And that could well change back as we go forward this week. Def not writing the event off yet. Considering how the tracks of the last few storms ended up in the shorter term, the bullseye can stay on I-95 and southeast the next few days for all i care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helping out will be some of it falling after sunset. I wouldn't be shocked to see qpf come up a little more with the ridge position. This may trend a bit stronger. Euro qpf is .3 to .6 for most of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick G Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 I guess the roads got pretty bad here yesterday due to the number of accidents over the last 24 hours. IT amazes me that the number of people who tend to drive during an Ice storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT amazes me that the number of people who tend to drive during an Ice storm. 2 people died in separate accidents here yesterday. With numerous other crashes. We had bad icing that hit fast. I run to the store a couples miles away and the roads were fine. 15 mins later on the way back. My wifes Subaru was having a hard time finding traction. Just that quick things went downhill. And her car goes good in bad weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PottercountyWXobserver Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 This event coming up moday looks semi-interesting, possible widespread 2-4" event maybe enough for a WWA event. The event later in the week is looking bleak, and even worse is JB says major warm up is progged. haha calling for possible 70s for DC :arrowhead: well hopefully hes wrong. If not looks like we may have to wait to see if march comes in snowier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
