LA CORTE

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
1024 PM EST WED JAN 14 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
AN ALBERTA CLIPPER STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE EAST ALONG THE MASON DIXON
LINE OVERNIGHT BRINGING A PERIOD OF LIGHT SNOW TO MUCH OF THE REGION.
THE COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON WILL FOLLOW FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.
TEMPERATURES WILL MODERATE SLIGHTLY OVER THE WEEKEND...BUT WILL
STILL REMAIN SEVERAL DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. ANOTHER CLIPPER SHOULD
BRING SOME LIGHT SNOW SATURDAY INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
SPOTTER REPORTS COMING IN FROM SOMERSET/CAMBRIA COUNTIES OF AROUND
5 INCHES OF SNOW AS OF 9 PM. UPSTREAM RADAR SUGGESTS A FEW MORE
INCHES IMMINENT...SO HAVE UPGRADED TO A WINT STORM WARNING FOR
THIS AREA.

FCST SOUNDINGS SHOW A NICE CROSS HAIR SIGNATURE WITH STRONG UPWARD
VERT MOTIONS THROUGH THE MOIST CLOUD LAYER BETWEEN -14 TO -16C...WHICH
SHOULD YIELD SNOW RATIOS OF AT LEAST 20 TO 1. THIS WILL SUPPORT A
GENERAL 2 TO 4 INCH ACCUMULATION OVERNIGHT...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF
THE HEAVIER AMTS OVR THE OROGRAPHICALLY FAVORED LAUREL HIGHLANDS
WHERE TOTALS OF 6 TO 8 INCHES NOW SEEM LIKELY.

NEW 00Z MODEL DATA CONFIRMING IDEA OF SNOW TAPERING OFF BEFORE
DAWN AS SFC LOW PULLS AWAY. IN IT/S WAKE...ARCTIC AIR POISED TO
OVERSPREAD THE REGION ON A GUSTY NW FLOW. MAY HAVE TO EXTEND WINT
WX ADVISORY THRU THURS AFTN TO ACCOUNT FOR BLOWING/DRIFTING
SNOW...ESPECIALLY OVR THE LAUREL HIGHLANDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
A TRANSITION TO A WESTERN/NRN MOUNTAINS SNOW SHOWER/LAKE EFFECT
REGIME WILL OCCUR AS A PERSISTENT MEAN SFC-850 MB WIND OF 285-295
DEG DEVELOPS. THE LAKE EFFECT WATCH IS UP FROM 12Z THURS BUT AM
NOT CONVINCED THINGS CAN OR WILL SET UP THAT EARLY OVER THE NW
MOUNTAINS. WOULD NORMALLY BE THINKING OF ISSUING SOME SORT OF
WARNING OR ADVISORY WITH THIS UPCOMING PACKAGE BUT WILL INSTEAD
KEEP THE WATCH GOING WITH THE IDEA THAT THE BEST CHANCE FOR LAKE
EFFECT TO SET UP WILL PROBABLY NOT BE UNTIL LATER IN THE DAY AND
OVERNIGHT THURS INTO FRI.

WILL WAIT FOR ALL 00Z GUIDANCE TO COME IN BEFORE MAKING DECISION
WITH REGARDS TO WIND CHILL WATCH/WARNING/ADVISORY. HOWEVER...CURRENT
THINKING IS THAT THE ALLEGHENIES WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY EXPERIENCE
ADVISORY CRITERIA /-15 TO -24 BLW ZERO/ THURS NITE AND EARLY
FRIDAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
NOT LOOKING QUITE AS COLD NOW OR WINDY FOR THE PERIOD FRI INTO
SAT MORNING. DID EDGE TEMPS UP A FEW DEGREES HERE AND THERE. WIND
CHILL ADVISORY VALUES NOT REALLY MET UNTIL LATE THU... THUS MAINLY
AFTER THE SECOND PERIOD. THUS HELD OFF ON AN ADVISORY FOR NOW. WE
DO CLIP WIND CHILL WARNING VALUES BY A DEGREE OR SO LATER THU
NIGHT AND FRIDAY NIGHT ACROSS THE FAR N. HOWEVER...IF MODERATION
TREND CONTINUES...WE MAY NOT REACH THE MINUS 25 WARNING THRESHOLD.
THUS HELD OFF ON WIND CHILL WATCH FOR NOW.

SOME SHEAR FOR LAKE EFFECT...BUT THE EXTREMELY COLD AIR
WILL PASS ACROSS THE WARMER LAKES...AND GIVEN HOW COLD THE
AIRMASS IS...UPSLOPE WILL HELP ADD TO THE SNOW. THUS A
LAKE EFFECT WATCH LOOKS GOOD FOR NOW.

SMALL WARM UP SETS IN ON SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY. STILL THINK
HIGH OVER QUEBEC IS A HINT THAT LAKE ONTARIO WILL KEEP THE
REAL COLD AIR TO THE NORTH. THIS MAY RESULT IN THE NEXT
CLIPPER GOING FURTHER NORTH ON SUNDAY. THUS I DID NOT GO
REAL HIGH WITH QPF AMTS.

FCST GETS MORE COMPLICATED AS ONE GOES OUT IN TIME. DID NOT
CHANGE MUCH FOR MONDAY INTO TUE...TRIED TO KEEP BEST CHC OF
SNOW IN AREAS OF UPSLOPE FLOW.

BETTER CHC FOR CLEARING ON WED...AS WEAK RIDGE BUILDS IN.
ANOTHER POOL OF COLD AIR LIKELY TO BE JUST TO THE NORTH...
THUS WARM UP AFTER THIS MAY BE SLOWER THAN EXPECTED...
ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NE PART OF THE CWA. HOWEVER...STILL
LOOKS LIKE AT LEAST A SMALL WARM UP FOR SEVERAL DAYS
LATER NEXT WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /03Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
SNOW SHIELD AHEAD OF LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER OHIO IS MOVING
ACROSS CENTRAL PA ATTM. EXPECT WIDESPREAD IFR TO CONTINUE/DEVELOP THROUGH
THE EVENING HOURS AT MOST TAF SITES WITH VISIBILITIES BELOW 2
MILES MOST OF THE TIME. THE EXCEPTION WILL BE OVER SERN AREAS /MDT/KLNS/
WHERE THE SNOW WILL BE LIGHTER.

WE SHOULD TRANSITION INTO A POST-FRONTAL WESTERLY FLOW REGIME
THURS...MEANING MOST TERMINALS WILL RETURN TO VFR WITH JUST
SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS BRINGING OCNL REDUCED CONDITIONS. AS
USUAL...JST/BFD WILL REMAIN THE WORST THE LONGEST DUE TO TERRAIN
AND LAKE-PROXIMITY ISSUES. THEY COULD STAY MVFR/IFR RIGHT THROUGH
FRIDAY.

HIGH PRESSURE BRINGS A BRIEF RESPITE FOR FRIDAY BEFORE ANOTHER
CLIPPER BRINGS SOME SNOW AND REDUCE CONDITIONS FOR LATER SATURDAY
INTO SUNDAY.

&&

.CTP WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY UNTIL 7 AM EST THURSDAY FOR PAZ006-
010>012-017>019-025>027-034-035-037-041-042-045-046-049>053.
