Mallow Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Sounding the pinger alert down here with this new batch of heavier precip that is just arriving at State College. Rain with some pellets mixing in. Yep, definitely a little more sleet mixing in with this batch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wmsptwx Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Final Call: State College: 3 to 5 Williamsport: 2 to 3 Altoona: 2 to 4 Johnstown: 2 to 5 Harrisburg: 1 inch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallow Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Final Call: State College: 3 to 5 Williamsport: 2 to 3 Altoona: 2 to 4 Johnstown: 2 to 5 Harrisburg: 1 inch I'm sticking with my original map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Final Call: State College: 3 to 5 Williamsport: 2 to 3 Altoona: 2 to 4 Johnstown: 2 to 5 Harrisburg: 1 inch Sounds about right. I'd go maybe a bit higher with 4-7" across the board for JST, AOO, UNV, and IPT, with more like 2-5" for Lewistown, Selinsgrove, and Huntingdon. Harrisburg could make it with 1-2" (maybe 3" if the cold trend really wins out, there could still be some surprises). From Dubois on north, I'd go 2-5" given trends today toward a colder and more suppressed system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Unfortunately I have to work til later this eve and i'm not gonna get a chance to crank out a snow map so I'm going to lay out some ranges for some select places. Going a little further southeast than NWS with measurable, Euro and GFS get some pretty decent totals all the way to Harrisburg. Pittsburgh, Johnstown, Altoona, State College, Williamsport,: 4-7 inches (chance of some higher totals just NW of this line) Bedford, Huntingdon, Lewistown, Selinsgrove, Scranton-WB: 2-4 inches (some local 5" totals possible) Carisle, Harrisburg: 1-2 inches (will have to watch progression of rain/snow line) York, Lancaster: up to but generally less than an inch.

F5TornadoF5 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Almost all sleet here now in State College....I think within an hour we will be all snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmsptwx Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Thinking we may have a glacier on our hands here in Willpo!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallow Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Almost all sleet here now in State College....I think within an hour we will be all snow. Not sure I'd call it almost all sleet. Still a rain/sleet mix. I think all snow is more like an hour and a half to two hours away yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarks green snow Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Some sleet in the initial batch up here in Clarks Green/Waverly. We have over-performed this year and I hope for 6-8 if we can change over quicker than expected. Hopefully 1530' helps! 34.5 currently with light rain and the frequent ping.

jm1220 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Almost all sleet here now in State College....I think within an hour we will be all snow. Careful with that assumption, the warm layer at 750-800mb can be mighty tough to break through. I've seen it many times both up there and here at home.

Mallow Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Snowing in Clearfield now. Hi-Res NAM would suggest snow in State College within the next hour, but that's partially dependent on precip intensity. So I'm still liking 6-7 PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mallow Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 VIsibility just dropped pretty substantially in Johnstown. They're still reporting freezing rain, but I wonder if maybe snow is mixing in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeffsvilleWx Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 The warm layer is above 850mb, around 700-800mb Who do you think you are, bringing all kinds of meteorological facts into this discussion? Ain't nobody got time for that. Cold and wet outside, but nowhere close to freezing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F5TornadoF5 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 The warm layer is above 850mb, around 700-800mb 700mb is at -1c http://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/new/viewsector.php?sector=16# Check it out yourself. 850mb 0c is just barely north of SC.

And they don't plot 800mb, which is probably +1C (but falling), hence the rain/sleet mix instead of a rain/snow mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
