AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA
551 AM EDT SAT APR 2 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
WINTER MAKES A COMEBACK OVER NORTHERN PENNSYLVANIA TONIGHT INTO
MONDAY WITH SEVERAL INCHES OF LATE-SEASON SNOW FORECAST TO THE
NORTH OF I-80. LOCATIONS TO THE EAST AND SOUTH OF THE I-99/I-80
CORRIDOR WILL SEE A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW BUT LITTLE TO NO SNOW
ACCUMULATION. STRONG WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 50 MPH ARE EXPECTED
LATE TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. TEMPERATURES WILL AVERAGE BELOW
EARLY APRIL CLIMATE NORMALS THROUGH NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
IMPACT WEATHER: LATE SEASON SNOW ACCUMULATION (NORTHERN PA) AND
WIDESPREAD NON-TSTM WIND GUSTS 45-55 MPH LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY
SUNDAY MORNING.

HIGHEST PCPN PROBS THIS MORNING WILL BE CONFINED TO SE AND NW 1/3
OF THE CWA BEHIND THE INITIAL (YESTERDAYS) SURFACE COLD FRONT
DRAPED ALONG THE MID ATLC COAST...AND AHEAD OF THE MAIN UPPER
TROUGH/SECONDARY COLD FRONT OVER THE GREAT LAKES AND UPPER OH
VALLEY. TEMPS WILL BE COLD ENOUGH TO SUPPORT RAIN/SNOW SHOWER THIS
MORNING OVER THE NW MTNS. OVERALL ANY PCPN WILL BE BARELY
MEASURABLE AND LARGELY INSIGNIFICANT PRIOR TO 18Z. MAIN FOCUS IS
IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE PERIOD ON SNOW AND WIND HAZARDS.

A VIGOROUS MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE/UPPER JET DROPPING SOUTHEAST FROM
SOUTH CENTRAL CANADA ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST/WESTERN GREAT LAKES
THIS MORNING WILL REACH THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY AND NORTHERN MID
ATLC STATES BY THIS EVE...CARVING OUT A DEEP 500MB TROUGH WITH
HEIGHTS ON THE ORDER OF -2.5 TO -3SD BELOW THEIR SEASONAL MEANS.
STRONG DYNAMICS WILL HELP TO INTENSIFY A CLIPPER TYPE SFC LOW AS
IT TRACKS QUICKLY EWD FROM SRN LWR MI ALONG THE PA/NY BORDER
SATURDAY NIGHT BEFORE REACHING THE CAPE COD VCNTY BY 12Z SUNDAY.
THIS SYSTEM WILL DRAW ANOMALOUSLY COLD AIR INTO CENTRAL PA WITH
RAIN MIXING AND CHANGING TO SNOW. MODEL GUIDANCE REMAINS IN GOOD
AGREEMENT IN PRODUCING A SWATH OF LATE SEASON SNOW ACCUM OVER THE
NORTHERN TIER OF PA/MAINLY TO THE NORTH OF I-80 DURING THE EVENING
AND OVERNIGHT HOURS. THE HEAVIEST ACCUMULATIONS OF 3+ INCHES ARE
EXPECTED TO THE NORTH OF I-80 AND ESPECIALLY ALONG AND N OF ROUTE
6. EXPANDED WINTER WX ADVY TO POTTER AND TIOGA COUNTIES BASED ON
COLLABORATED SNOW AMOUNTS AND COORDINATION WITH BGM.

STRONG CAA/STEEP LOW-MID LVL LAPSE RATES WILL TEAM WITH RAPID
PRES RISES TO PRODUCE STRONG WIND GUSTS IN THE 45 TO 55 MPH RANGE
FROM AROUND MIDNIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. EXPANDED WIND
ADVISORY TO COVER THE REMAINDER OF THE CWA. TRIED TO SIMPLIFY THE
SNOW/WIND HAZARDS BY NOT ISSUING WIND/WINTER WX ADVY FOR THE SAME
ZONES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
SNOW ACCUM AND STRONGEST WINDS SHOULD END BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS A
SFC RIDGE BRIEFLY MIGRATES OVER THE AREA. ON THE HEELS OF THE
FIRST SYSTEM...A SECOND CLIPPER TYPE SFC LOW QUICKLY ENTERS THE
PICTURE ON DAY 2 DROPPING THROUGH THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND UPPER
MIDWEST BEFORE STREAKING EWD THRU OH VLY SUN NGT AND ACROSS
CENTRAL PA ON MONDAY. ANOTHER STRIPE OF ADDITIONAL SNOW IS
EXPECTED OVER THE NORTHERN TIER COUNTIES WITHIN ZONE OF LOW TO MID
LEVEL FGEN ALONG AND TO THE NORTH OF THE LOW TRACK. BY MONDAY
NIGHT...SOME AREAS OVER NORTHERN MAY PICK UP UPWARDS OF 6 INCHES
OF SNOW. PCPN SHOULD EXPAND SOUTHEAST DURING THE DAY MONDAY WITH
RAIN OR RAIN SNOW MIX LIKELY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN 1/2 OF THE CWA.
PCPN WINDS DOWN FAIRLY QUICKLY MON NGT INTO TUES AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILD INTO THE AREA.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
TUESDAY LOOKS DRY BUT RATHER CHILLY WITH MAX TEMPS ABOUT -20F
BELOW NORMAL. THE HIGH SHIFTS OFF THE MID ATLC COAST BY WED
AFTERNOON. MEDIUM RANGE MODEL AND ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE SHOWS A LOW
TRACKING THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES INTO THE SE CANADA BY 07/12Z
WITH PCPN FOCUSING ALONG ITS TRAILING COLD FRONT CROSSING THE
APPALACHIANS. 02/00Z MODEL DATA NOW SHOWS SECONDARY LOW FORMATION
OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST AS A REINFORCING SHOT OF UNSEASONABLY
COLD AIR SPILLS EAST OF THE MS RIVER BY FRIDAY. MAX PCPN APPEARS
TO BE FOCUSED ALONG OR OFF THE MID ATLC COAST. A BRIEF RESPITE
FROM THE CHILLY WX ON THURSDAY WILL BE FOLLOWED BY RELATIVELY
SHORT DURATION COOL DOWN FRI-SAT.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRES OVR THE AREA SHOULD ENSURE VFR CONDS
AND LIGHT WIND ACROSS THE MOST OF CENTRAL PA OVERNIGHT. THE ONE
EXCEPTION WILL BE ACROSS THE NW MTNS...WHERE APPROACHING COLD
FRONT WILL LIKELY BRING DETERIORATING CONDS AT KBFD IN THE FORM
OF -SHRA AND BORDERLINE IFR CIGS BTWN 09Z-14Z. A WEAK AREA OF LOW
PRES SLIDING OFF UP THE E COAST COULD GRAZE KLNS/KMDT WITH A BIT
OF LIGHT RAIN BTWN 09Z-14Z. HOWEVER...CURRENT MODEL SOUNDINGS
INDICATE THERE WILL LIKELY BE ENOUGH DRY AIR IN THE LOW LVLS TO
SUSTAIN VFR CONDS EVEN IF IT DOES RAIN.

SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL DISSIPATE AS IT MOVES THRU CENTRAL PA
AND COASTAL LOW WILL SWEEP EAST OF THE REGION BY LATE AM...WITH
WIDESPREAD VFR CONDS EXPECTED FOR MOST OF THE DAYLIGHT HOURS.
BUFKIT SOUNDINGS INDICATE WEST WINDS WILL GUST TO BTWN 20-25KTS
DURING THE LATE AM AND AFTN.

MAIN CONCERN LATE SAT AND SAT EVENING WILL BE LOW PRES TRACKING
FROM THE LOWER GRT LKS INTO NORTHERN PA. THIS SYSTEM WILL SPREAD
RAIN INTO CENTRAL PA BY EARLY EVENING...WHICH WILL RAPIDLY TURN
TO SNOW OVER THE W MTNS...LIKELY RESULTING IN IFR VSBYS AT KBFD
AND POSSIBLY AT KJST/KUNV/KAOO DURING SAT EVENING.

OUTLOOK...

SUN...WINDY...ESP EARLY. SNOW WITH LOW VSBYS POSS KBFD EARLY AM...THEN
AGAIN IN THE EVENING.

MON...AM SNOW/LOW CIGS POSS NORTHERN PA.

TUE...NO SIG WX EXPECTED.

WED...RAIN/SNOW POSS LATE.
