That cell to the west of Oxford soaked me. It did end with flakes mixed in. It is not doing so well to your East. Snowing in Philly per my contact there. I would guess 90% of the rain markers on there are snow. But I was more pointing toward the coverage over 2/3 of the state. One of the most impressive snow days of the season.

Bubbler86 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 GFS has been changing the warmest day for next week with Thursday being the hot one now vs. Fri. 18Z actually has Friday staying in the 40's and 50's for a lot of PA now. Thursday would be a true spring fling for those wanting the heat with a shot at 70 in the southern 1/3rd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 What an afternoon! I've had 3 separate snow squalls fly through here on pretty stiff winds. This 3rd one, which ended about 5 minutes ago, was easily the heaviest with the lowest visibility of about a quarter mile. My snowboard got enough accumulation for me to call it 0.1". The first squall came through around 2:00 with probably the strongest wind gusts of over 30mph and the snow blowing around wildly. That one was interesting because nearly all of the snow fell as snow pellets. That one lasted long enough to whiten the ground / mulch. The middle squall was the weakest, but still was accompanied by gusty winds and briefly heavy snow. The temps were in the low 40's when the snow began but dropped to 34 during #1, and #3 dropped down to 33. Looking at the radar it looks like more squalls may be on the way. What a shock after 60's last week! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're absolutely right - and that was kind of my point. LNS is a good 10mph less than MDT on average. You live in a wind tunnel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My house is sorta protected from W/NW component winds...when they veer south, that's when I really notice it. When we get random tropical storms, I'm heading for the basement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Laurel’s are looking pretty rough, specifically on the US 22 corridor right now in Cambria at the top of the mountain above Altoona. Pretty wintry down here too, with a coating of snow on the ground and occasional heavier snow squalls blowing around. But roads are uncaved at the moment. Temp is 30ºF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mount Joy Snowman Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 An insane graupel shower just rolled through here and covered everything — .1” going in the books. What a day! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Up to .2" here now. Everything covered except the roads. Going to set the grass back even more. I figured we would have a snowy day, but this is over top what I thought would happen down here. Over 1" in Pen Mar up the hill. Top 10 23-24 winter day at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temp is 30ºF The band up in NC PA streaming through just north of Lock Haven is impressive. SSW issued and honestly some training there, can imagine localized couple inch totals will come in there.

Drove back through Blue ridge summit and got to enjoy it twice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More robust daytime heating at the surface over there probably resulted in higher wind gusts mixing down this afternoon. High res guidance increases the winds aloft overnight into the early part of the day tomorrow. So similar gusts are likely to continue. My high gust at home today is 32.4mph and most of the ASOS and RWIS around here (KAOO, KJST, etc have had max gusts in the 45mph range so far.
