January and December were two completely different months for us here in the Northeast weather-wise. December might as well have been named October, with record breaking warmth including days reaching 70 degrees. January however, was a much different story. We predicted below average temperatures and that’s exactly what occurred. Also, one…
The Blizzard of 2016, or Winter Storm Jonas, the storm that we will be talking about for decades to come will go down as one of the biggest storms in the history of the United States. The rumors all started to stir about a possible big Winter Storm the weekend before (January 16th/17th) when Josh…
There have been many talks in the past few days regarding another storm late this week. We would like to calm them down because ALL models indicate the system will stay off the coast. Why? A flat piece of energy coming into the Pacific Northwest will compress our ridge out west.…
We are now about 24 hours from the start of our biggest winter storm in several years across Southcentral and Southeastern PA. Let’s dive right into the timing for this storm. By about 5-7 PM snow will cross the Maryland line entering into bordering PA counties. This…
PLEASE LOOK AT THE DATE THIS WAS PUBLISHED…THIS WAS FOR THE BLIZZARD THAT HAPPENED A MONTH AGO….. We have high confidence in today’s forecast as it appears models are locking in at last. Models yesterday were a mess, however the storm came ashore Tuesday Night providing brand new information which has now…
We will begin by mentioning the stated amounts are very broad, and WILL need to be adjusted as we move closer to the storm. How much adjustment? That all depends on coming model runs. Models today have been consistent, once again indicating a major snowstorm and even blizzard with the exception of…
AN UPDATED ARTICLE HAS NOW BEEN POSTED REGARDING THIS POTENTIALLY CRIPPLING STORM >>> https://paweatheraction.com/potentially-crippling-winter-storm-friday-into-saturday With storm after storm this season, it has been all about what the system could have produced instead of what it did produce, which has often been rain. Why is that? We have had little to no…
Late next week holds the potential for wintry weather. The modeled storm track would make it extremely difficult for PA to see rain, but of course that is subject to change. At this point it’s looking like a light event that would be considered more of a moderate event this season with…
Snow will move into Western PA Tuesday Morning and spread east. We expect light snow to fall much of the day across Western PA and potentially through the mountains of Northern PA. As you work your way into Southern and Eastern PA, this is looking much more like a snow-squall type deal. Snow squalls will…
This winter has gotten off to an extremely slow start but things are beginning to get exciting. While many are talking about the potential major winter storm next weekend, there is still much to be worked out with that. A clipper system will dive down from Alberta…
A clipper system is targeting our region beginning late Tuesday Afternoon for our Western Counties and late Tuesday Night for our far Eastern Counties, and will be out of here by mid-morning Wednesday for all of us. Here is the GFS valid Tuesday Night: Many of us will receive a period of light snowfall for…
Snow squalls associated with lake effect and a passing cold front will fall throughout Western and Northern PA Monday. Not everyone will be impacted but those who are will experience a short period of moderate to heavy snow and strong winds. Behind this cold front will be the coldest air of…
The cold has finally arrived and winter-like weather is here to stay. January will be a much different month weather-wise than December and honestly a complete flip. Temperatures near average now (highs in 20s and 30s, lows in teens and 20s), until January 9th will lead to well below normal temperatures…
We have been tracking this storm for quite a while, and even mentioned the potential all the way back on December 8th. Now, a major winter storm has its eyes set on the region as models are reaching a consensus. Nearly 80% of the state will see wintry precipitation, take a…
FORECAST HAS JUST BEEN UPDATED – CLICK FOR DETAILS This storm has been a roller coaster on the models and Saturday things trended slightly colder than previous runs on Friday. It is now clear that some areas in PA are in store for a major ice storm. Where? Take a look…
