The episode as NWS CTP wrote it up.
A significant ice jam flood was observed along Losey Creek in Middlebury, PA (Tioga County) on March 12th. The flood waters along with some ice chunks flowed across Rt. 287 and other secondary roads, affecting homes located in low-lying and poor drainage areas near the creek. The water eventually froze and contributed to the flooding impacts.

NWS State College, PA wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Mar 12, 2:45 PM EST, 15 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE STATE COLLEGE PA 345 PM EDT WED MAR 12 2014 .SYNOPSIS... LOW PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO DEEPEN AS IT LIFTS RAPIDLY FROM SOUTHERN PENNSYLVANIA NORTHEASTWARD ALONG THE NEW ENGLAND COAST THROUGH TONIGHT. TEMPERATURES WILL PLUMMET TONIGHT INTO EARLY THURSDAY BEHIND STRONG AND GUSTY NORTH-NORTHWEST WINDS. THE COLD BLAST WILL BE SHORT-LIVED WITH A NICE REBOUND IN TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY. A SERIES OF CANADIAN FRONTAL PASSAGES OVER THE WEEKEND WILL SEND TEMPERATURES SEASONABLY COLDER INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/... THE COLD AIR FINALLY GOT INTO THE NORTHERN TIER COUNTIES AS DID THE SNOW. LAST LOOK BRADFORD WAS 29F AND SNOWING. SNOW AND COLD AIR WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY CHANGE RAIN TO SNOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER THIS AFTERNOON. FARTHER SOUTH...A MODEST BAND OF INTENSE SHOWERS HAS DEVELOPED IN THE WARM AIR ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE MOUNTAINS. IT IS A FEW TENS OF MILES AHEAD OF THE REAL COLD AIR AND IT CAN PRODUCE BRIEF STRONGER RAIN SHOWERS AND CAN BRING DOWN GUSTY WINDS...WINDS ARE OVER 60KTS ABOVE ABOUT 5-6KFT. METARS SHOW THESE CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS CAN BRING DOWN 35 TO 40 MPH WINDS. JUST PAST KJST ABOUT 230 PM. THE LOW AT 18Z WAS OVER SOUTHWESTERN PA CHUGGING EASTWARD. CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AREAS WILL SEE THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY AND LINEAR ENHANCED CONVECTION SWEEP ACROSS THE STATE OVER THE NEXT 2-3 HOURS. EXPECT SNOW IN NORTHERN TIER TO BEGIN ACCUMULATE. THERE ARE TWO SHOTS AT SNOW IN NW PA...WITH THE BAND JUST NW OF THE LOW AND THE LARGER DEFORMATION BAND OVER NE OHIO AND LAKE ERIE. HAD TO BRING SNOW TOTALS DOWN CONSIDERABLY SINCE LAST UPDATE. THE FRONT SHOULD SWEEP ACROSS ALL OF THE REGION THIS EVENING AND COLD AIR WILL CHANGE ALL REMAIN PRECIPITATION TO SNOW/SNOW SHOWERS. AREAS WHERE IT RAINS AND RAPID TEMPERATURE FALLS COULD PRODUCE ICY ROADS/FLASH FREEZING CONDITIONS. IN NW WHERE IT SNOWS THERE COULD BE SOME BLOWING SNOW. IT WILL GET WIND BEHIND THE COLD FRONT AND WINDS WILL BECOME QUITE TONIGHT. VERY COLD OVERNIGHT TOWARD MORNING TEMPERATURES SHOULD FALL TO AROUND 0 IN NW AND UPPER TEENS IN SOUTHEAST. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/... COLD WINDY START....BUNDLE UP ON WAY OUT IN THE MORNING. WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH LATE MORNING INTO THE MID AFTERNOON HOURS. VERY WINDY VERY COLD. NO SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION. JUST A COLD WINTRY DAY WITH A SHOT AT SOME NEAR RECORD LOW HIGH TEMPERATURES IF TEMPERATURES DO NOT BEGIN TO RISE BEFORE SUNRISE ON FRIDAY. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE COLD BLAST WILL BE SHORT-LIVED...WITH A RAPID MODERATION OCCURRING ON FRIDAY. TEMPS SHOULD EVEN LEVEL OFF OR GO NON-DIURNAL LATE THU NGT INTO THE PREDAWN HOURS FRI MORNING ESPECIALLY ACRS THE WRN MTNS. SOME OF THE SHELTERED VALLEYS IN THE ERN PART OF THE CWA MAY STILL DECOUPLE TOWARD DAYBREAK. BREEZY SW RETURN FLOW IN ADVANCE OF NRN CLIPPER SFC LOW TRACKING ACRS THE UPPER GREAT LAKES/SRN ONTARIO AND DOWNSLOPING EFFECTS SHOULD HELP TO BOOST TEMPS INTO THE LOW/MID 40S NORTH AND LOW/MID 50S SOUTH. THE MODELS TURN THE LOW TO THE NORTHEAST UP THE ST. LAWRENCE VLY ON DAY 5/SAT...DRAGGING A TRAILING/WEAK COLD FRONT ACRS THE NORTHEAST AND MID-ATL STATES. 12Z MODEL GUIDANCE INDICATES SOME LGT SHOWER ACTIVITY ALONG THE COLD FRONT...WITH THE HIGHEST POPS BASED ON CONSENSUS BLEND ACRS NWRN SXNS BTWN 00-06Z SAT GFS AND EC ENSEMBLES SHOW A COLD UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH REMAINING A FIXTURE OVER ERN CANADA AND THE NERN CONUS...WITH RIDGING ALONG THE WEST COAST POSSIBLY BREAKING DOWN INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. AT THE SFC...A MODESTLY STRONG/1040MB HIGH PUSHING SEWD FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST/WRN GRT LKS SHOULD DIRECT COLDER AIR INTO THE REGION BEHIND A REINFORCING CANADIAN FROPA ON SUNDAY...WITH TEMPS TRENDING LOWER ON DAY 5/6. THE KEY FEATURE OF INTEREST WILL BE A SFC WAVE MIGRATING NEWD FROM THE TX/LA GULF COAST ACRS THE SOUTHEAST TO THE OUTER BANKS BY 12Z MONDAY. THE 12Z GFS TRENDED IN THE DIRECTION OF THE 00/12Z ECMWF WHICH HAS INDICATED A DEEPER AND 'MORE DEFINED' LOW FOR THE PAST FOUR CYCLES. THE 12Z UKMET IS VERY CLOSE TO THE ECMWF AND JUST A TAD WEAKER. THE GFS AND ESPECIALLY THE GEFS ARE MORE SUPPRESSED VS THEIR NON-NCEP COUNTERPARTS. REGARDLESS OF THE SOLN CHOICE...THE MAIN FCST CHALLENGE WILL INITIALLY BE THE TRACK FOLLOWED BY POTNL RAIN/SNOW TRANSITION LINE ON NW PERIPHERY OF THE ASSOCD PCPN SHIELD. FINAL POPS WERE NUDGED IN THE DIRECTION OF THE ECMWF BRINGING CHC MENTIONS OF RAIN/SNOW TO MUCH OF SOUTH-CENTRAL PA SUN NGT INTO MONDAY. && .AVIATION /19Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... RAIN SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD EASTWARD ACROSS SRN PA THIS AFTN...WITH MVFR AND IFR CONDS PREVAILING. A LINE OF HEAVIER SHOWERS AND EVEN SOME THUNDER RIGHT ALONG THE COLD FRONT AND IS APPROACHING KJST AT 18Z. THIS LINE WILL MARCH EASTWARD ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF SRN PA LATE THIS AFTN...AFFECTING KUNV...KAOO...KMDT AND KLNS. SOME LOW-LEVEL WIND SHEAR IS EXPECTED ABOVE A SHALLOW LAYER OF COOL AIR THAT IS TRAPPED ACROSS CENTRAL AND EASTERN PA THIS AFTN. RAIN IS CHANGING OVER TO SNOW ACROSS NW PA /KBFD/ THIS AFTN...AND THE RAIN/SNOW LINE WILL CONTINUE TO PROGRESS SOUTHEASTWARD AS COLDER AIR FILTERS INTO THE REGION. VERY GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS WILL DEVELOP AS THE COLD AIR IS DRAGGED INTO THE REGION BEHIND THIS SYSTEM LATE THIS AFTN AND THIS EVENING. FOR TONIGHT....IFR AND MVFR CONDS SHOULD SLOWLY GIVE WAY TO VFR ACROSS THE CENTRAL MTNS AND LWR SUSQ VALLEY. REDUCED CIGS MAY LINGER ACROSS THE WRN HIGHLANDS /KBFD AND KJST/.

THERE IS STILL ENOUGH ICE IN SPOTS TO LEAD TO ICE JAMS...THOUGH SIGNIFICANT DECAY HAS OCCURRED AT MANY LOCATIONS DUE TO THE RECENTLY WARM WEATHER. ICE JAMS ARE POSSIBLE BUT NOT PREDICTABLE. MONITOR WATER LEVELS CLOSELY FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK.
