What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS State College, PA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Feb 16, 1:19 AM EST, 1 hour 53 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 16, 1:19 AM EST, 1 hour 53 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service State College PA 119 AM EST Sun Feb 16 2025 .SYNOPSIS... * Freezing rain across much of Central and Northern PA will result in slippery roads and hazardous travel overnight; A changeover to rain is expected Sunday morning * Turning very windy and colder with snow showers Sunday afternoon into Monday; single digit-subzero wind chills early next week * Temperatures projected to remain below the historical average next week with the potential for a winter storm Wed-Thu && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 AM THIS MORNING/... Passage of the LLJ Axis and slight veering of the low to mid level wind gave us a 6-8 hour period of much lighter precip late this afternoon and early tonight. Backing flow aloft and deep layer moistening linked to the development of a coupled jet circulation will transport another area of light to moderate rain (with areas of FZRA) across the region (focused across the NW half of the CWA) where an additional 0.50 to 0.75 of an inch of QPF is expected. Localized point amounts of rain near 1.0 inch are possible, which will greatly ripen the several inches of snowpack in that area and increase runoff into small streams and creeks, leading to significant rises from the currently low stages (NW), but likely staying below FS. Better runoff and the potential for flooding is somewhat higher across portions of the Laurel Highlands. Temps late this evening are holding tough in the 30-33F range (with mid and upper 20s common across the mountains North of KIPT). This will support a continuation of light FZRA and Rain through 06Z Sunday with slightly above freezing air first moving north into the Lower Susq Valley and Warren County in the NW. With temps hovering near to slightly below freezing across most of the southern PA counties outside of the Lower Susq Valley, decided to extend the Wint Weather Advisory through 4 AM EST Sunday, and maintain the 14Z Sunday expiration time across the Northern half of the CWA. Periods of moderate FZRA are expected after 06Z across portions of the Northern Mtns where another 0.2 of an inch of ice is probable. Previous Disc... Key takeaways so far for this event: 1. Initial WAA snow "thump" over performed with 3+ inches of snow observed this morning across the southwest zones 2. Ptype transition has been tracking well with the northeastward progression of the 850mb 0C freezing line 3. Precip could taper to freezing drizzle in the northern tier early tonight before another shot of QPF in the 06-12Z window HREF has been handling the ptypes quite well and expect a fairly steady and gradual changeover (southwest to northeast) from sleet/zr to zr/rain or just plain rain this evening through tonight. Freezing rain/ice will be primarily confined to the ridgetops tonight with max ice accum north of the PA Turnpike and between US-219 and I-99/US-220. && .SHORT TERM /8 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/... Noteworthy changes or callouts in the short term include: 1. Addition of winter wx advisory for the Laurel Highlands with upslope snow accum 2-4+" between 1PM Sunday and 3PM Monday 2. Kept high wind watch unchanged for now with peak gusts most likely in the 55-60 mph range 3. CNFP1 -- Forecast crest increased by ~2.5ft to 11.1ft or within 1ft of minor flood stage on the Youghiogheny River at Confluence 4. Potential for cold wx advisory as arctic air returns to CPA Monday night into Tuesday morning Previous Discussion: Mild and showery weather is expected early Sunday, as the region breaks into the warm sector Sunday afternoon, ahead of low pressure lifting across the Eastern Grt Lks. In all, liquid equivalent precipitation totals should be between 1 and 1.5 inches across the entire forecast area by Sunday afternoon, with the highest totals expected in Somerset County. The combination of rain and snow/ice melt could lead to some areal flooding concerns there Saturday night into Sunday night. In coordination with neighboring offices, a Flood Watch remains in effect for Somerset County for the potential of areal/small stream flooding there, but most indications are that the main flooding threat will remain to our southwest in the Ohio Valley. A strong cold front will sweep through the region late Sunday afternoon into the early evening, ushering in gusty winds, a period of rain changing to snow, and dramatically colder temperatures. Highs ahead of the front are likely to reach the mid 50s in southeast PA Sunday afternoon. A rumble of thunder or two are also possible in southeast PA, where a few hundred J/kg of MLCAPE could generate some lightning. After the cold front moves through, there is very high confidence in a 24-30 hour period of quite strong/gusty west to west-northwest winds sustained at 20-30 mph with gusts of 45-60+ mph from Sunday afternoon through Monday. BUFKIT soundings support mixing to at least 850mb Sunday evening through Monday, tapping into a strong 60kt jet. A period of very strong gusts immediately behind the front will be followed by a prolonged stretch of gusty winds that will continue Sunday night and into Monday afternoon. Have issued a High Wind Watch for all but Warren County, where the risk for 50kt gusts is high enough to warrant a Watch. A Wind Advisory (40+ kt gusts) is a sure bet for the entire region, but High Wind Warnings will likely be needed for a portion of Central PA Sunday evening into Monday. As cold air pours in behind the front, scattered snow showers will be flying for Sunday night into Monday as the DGZ lowers to occupy much of the thick stratocu layer. Narrow LES streamers could penetrate the CWA as far SE as the Lower Susq Valley given a well-aligned low to mid level flow averaging around 50 KTS. A prolonged upslope snow event in the Laurels could result in some accumulations over 3" there on the ridgetops by Monday afternoon and a Winter Weather Advisory may be needed. The combination of snow showers and gusty winds could also combine to produce blizzard-like conditions at times Sunday night into Monday. By Monday morning, temperatures will have dropped 20 degrees from Sundays highs, and daytime wind chills Monday will range from zero to 5 below over the N Mtns, to the teens in the Susq Valley. Winds will gradually taper off Monday afternoon and evening as high pressure builds in. All guidance points to cold and mostly dry weather Monday night into mid week associated with an elongated upper trough over the Northern CONUS and surface ridging over PA. Ensemble 2m temp anomalies indicate the coldest air relative to normal will be over the NW Mtns, where highs Tues are likely to be in the lower teens. Max temps over most of Central PA should be in the 20s both Tue and Wed. EPS 2m temp plumes continue to support single digit min temps Tue/Wed over the Alleghenies. Winds may remain high enough early Tue AM to result in wind chills around -10F over the N Mtns. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... Chilly/cold temps are in store for much of next week. Max temps over most of central PA should be in the 20s both Tue and Wed. EPS 2m temp plumes continue to support single digit min temps over the Alleghenies. The focus Wed PM into Thursday is a potential East Coast snow storm associated with the phasing of a southern stream shortwave and a deepening upper low over the Upper Midwest. The mean surface low track of the 18Z EPS/GEFS track the intensifying surface low too far east to significantly impact Central PA. However, there remains plenty of uncertainty inherent in a Day 5-6 forecast and there are a sizable minority of EPS members that track the storm much closer to the coast, which could result in widespread heavy snow across the region. NBM POPs around 60pct seems prudent at this point Wed PM into Thursday. Blustery and cold weather looks very likely to close out next week, as the intensifying low heads NE into the N. Atlantic. && .AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... Forecast challenge overnight will be the lingering precipitation and the timing of the transition from -FZRA/-FZDZ over the central mountains to plain rain. This should occur in the first few hours of the forecast period. Some patchy IFR to LIFR in FG will devdelop as well as the warm air moves over the earlier snow cover and icy ground. Winds will pick up from the south through the morning hours as a frontal boundary moves toward the area. Cold air returns to BFD Sun aftn after the cold front passes. The gusty NW wind will make some -SHSN off the lakes and with the help of the upslope flow. These will last into Sun night for BFD and Monday AM for JST where the IFR will last the longest. The wind will likely gust over 45 mph at most TAF sites Sunday afternoon and night and last into Monday as sharp pressure rises help to augment the already gusty westerly wind. High Wind Watches cover all of Central PA for the potential of even higher gusts of 55 to 60 mph. Outlook... Mon...Sub VFR cigs and SHSN JST (mainly AM).
