Laurel Highlands Wx Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 My neighbor tells me it's mixing with snow in Port Matilda also. Traffic camera on I-99 confirms it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieOber Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Traffic camera on I-99 confirms it. Yeah. Not looking forward to the drive home. Seeing flakes starting to mix in here in downtown State College. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I haven't heard any sleet at all, but I've been inside (though next to a 7th floor window). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurel Highlands Wx Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yeah. Not looking forward to the drive home. Seeing flakes starting to mix in here in downtown State College. Yeah. I've seen a few also. The candlelight intersection in Ebensburg has 4 icicles on its camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pasnownut Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I haven't heard any sleet at all, but I've been inside (though next to a 7th floor window). Mix of rain and lunker sleet balls here in Ephrata. Nut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I'm in Altoona about 1/10 mile east of I-99 and it's solid sleet. About 1/2" of sleet accumulation on all paved and non paved surfaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllWeather Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yeah nearly all sleet in HBG now. Shouldn't last a whole lot longer. Some strong WAA at 850mb occurring to our south...should change everything to rain tonight. I'm actually pretty surprised at how long the sleet has been lasting in some parts!

AllWeather Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Kind of OT in regards to the current storm, but I was wondering if any of you guys knew of any good regional weather twitter pages to follow. I've been doing some research and trying to get prepped for severe wx season and I can't find anything solid at this point. Any help would be awesome!

NeffsvilleWx Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 OT: canderson, what show did you guys see a few weeks ago, and how was it? Looks like my wife and I will be in NYC thursday-friday with some time to kill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Pretty much just rain now, had the half inch of sleet that Eskimo Joe reported down the road from me. It was enough to make the roads very treacherous from what I hear. Speaking of sleet, Oh if i had a nickel for everytime i've hear people call sleet hail...

MAG5035 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Actually I stand corrected on my observation, there's still sleet falling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Hanging out for the night near Pine Grove. Looks like just some drizzle at the moment. Must be icy somewhere though. PennDOT trucks keep turning around in the truckstop I'm at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Oh hey, it's snowing outside... I was wondering why I wasn't hearing pingers or rain on the roof anymore. Edit: Dang I need to get on the ball, all the road cams up in Cambria county (that don't have ice on them) showing snow covered roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and State College will probably go over to snow with the arrival of that heavier precip by the looks of it. Could be a sign of the coastal starting to take over and a relaxation of that strong southeastery jet. Too bad it looks like we're going to run out of precip before things escalate much.

Yep, dumping snow now. Wow. EDIT: Looks like about a 50/50 sleet/snow mix. Some pure snowflakes, lots of rimed snow, and some pure sleet as well.
