Area forecast discussion, Feb 17, 11:01 AM EST, 3 hours 30 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service State College PA
1101 AM EST Sat Feb 17 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
Fast moving locally heavy snow showers and brief squalls are
possible through the afternoon. Snow shower activity will fade
into tonight. It will remain breezy and with a noticeably chill
factor through Sunday. Expect a dry weather pattern to through
the middle of next week with temperatures trending above the
historical average for mid to late February.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 7 PM THIS EVENING/...
Breaks of sun are fueling an uptick in coverage and intensity
of instability/diurnally driven snow shower activity heading
into midday. We issued a blanket SPS earlier this morning to
highlight risk potential for fast-moving/transient and cellular
snow showers/clusters/squalls moving quickly across the area
from NW to SE through the afternoon. So far, webcams have been
showing sharp drops in the visibility, but with little to no
accumulation on roadways. Road temps are rising above 32F
downwind of the mtns, so will need to monitor flash freeze
component. Conditions are turning blustery with frequent wind
gusts expected to peak in the 30 to 40 mph range making air
temps in the mid 20s-30s feel more like teens and 20s. Expect
snow showers to fade with the loss of heating into tonight.

&&

.SHORT TERM /7 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
Lake effect/upslope snow showers eventually shift north to the
NW Mtns and near Lakeshore areas tonight and Sunday as the mean
llvl flow become more parallel to Lake Erie as llvl trajectory
shifts/backs to the WSW by Sunday. It will remain breezy/wind
for the entire weekend with frequent gusts in the 25-35 mph
range. Sunday looks better than Saturday on the margin with mix
of sun/clouds and maxt trending +5-10F vs. Saturday.

Winds subside to start the upcoming week as high pressure
builds into the area. Temps begin a nice warming trend with
highs climbing back to seasonal averages for mid February (mid
30s to low 40s).

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Medium range guidance all points to fair weather and light winds
early next week with moderating temperatures, as the upper
trough lifts out and surface high pressure builds in from the
Grt Lks. The warmup should continue into Wednesday with well
above average temperatures, as a weak shortwave and associated
surface low track north of the state. A few rain showers appear
possible Wed PM (mainly over the NW Mtns) as the trailing cold
front pushes into the state.

All medium range guidance indicates a deepening upper level
trough and associated cold front will approach from the W Grt
Lks late next week. Falling heights and surging pwats ahead of
the front is most likely to result in a mild and possibly
showery Thursday. The latest EPS and GEFS then indicate
potential phasing of the upstream trough with a weak southern
stream shortwave, resulting in a deepening wave on the front
lifting from the Southern Appalachians northeast across the Mid
Atlantic Thursday night into Friday. This scenario indicates a
potential rain to snow event, especially over the higher terrain
of Central PA. Although models appear to be coalescing, there
remains plenty uncertainty inherent in a day 6/7 forecast. What
appears more certain is that we will see blustery and significantly
colder weather arriving by Friday PM as the upper trough swings
across the region.

&&

.AVIATION /16Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Late morning update.

Snow has ended in LNS. Winds picking up some now. Added some
tempo groups to handle bands of snow showers moving across the
region, but so far no real widespread or heavy snow showers.

Will continue to monitor update as needed.

Earlier discussion below.

Already seeing some improvement across the area and expect that
to continue over the next couple of hours as snow exits to the
east. Lingering MVFR ceilings are expected across the western
highlands (BFD/JST) today, with VFR elsewhere.

A northwesterly wind will become blustery areawide later this
morning. Along with the gusty winds, scattered heavier snow
squalls and/or blowing snow will occasionally worsen vsbys. The
best chance for scattered showers/squalls will be across the
northern airfields (BFD, UNV, and IPT) where a TEMPO group has
been added to attempt to target the window where reductions are
most likely. As confidence increases that squalls will affect
airfields, IFR/LIFR visibilities may need to be introduced into
future amendments.

Improving conditions are likely areawide by this evening as snow
squalls taper off and clear/VFR skies develop nearly areawide.
There is a chance MVFR conditions will redevelop at JST and BFD
toward daybreak on Sunday, but going with an optimistic forecast
at this time. A strong low-level jet will move into western PA
early Sunday morning and LLWS conditions may be met.

Outlook...

Sun...Improving conds and becoming predominantly VFR areawide.

Mon-Tue...No sig wx.

Wed...Increasing clouds w/ rain showers developing late across
the west.

.CTP WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
None.
