Central PA Winter 25/26 Discussion and Obs

[MAG5035]

Despite pretty high winds, the most impactful weather has shifted over to the snow bands that set up late this evening/early this morning in combo with the winds of course. 

Opted for a late night snow chase on a band that set up in northern Blair/NW Huntingdon a couple hours ago and it ended up being worth it. Some folks probably saw their biggest snowfall of the season to date under it. 2-4” was common on the I-99 corridor roughly between Bellwood-Tyrone, carrying over into Huntingdon County. Very impressive for a LES band being off the Laurel’s.

I-99 between Tipton (Exit 45) and Tyrone (48)

PA 45 in Spruce Creek, PA (NW Huntingdon)

This band missed here by about 6 miles or so, there’s only about a half inch of wind blown snow here at the house.

Back to back days with .03” of rain. Low of 28. Winds had me up through the night and were downright vicious around 3am. Let’s see if we can’t catch a dusting one of the next couple nights.
