First Call Snowfall Forecast & Timing for Sunday Evening – Monday Morning Rain to Snow Storm

A stretched out low pressure system will rapidly intensify as it moves up the I-95 corridor. However, it won’t be a significant event for Pennsylvania because the low will just begin bomb out at our latitude. This will benefit Upstate New York, New England, and Eastern Canada much more so. For us, it’s a light event with perhaps moderate accumulations in parts of Northeast Pennsylvania.

As we are still outside of mesoscale model range, which is able to pick out the fine details, it’s a bit too early for future radar. However, a new feature we will be doing are Winter Storm Timing Forecast tables. Timing is focused on when wintry precipitation is expected, and the more wintry precipitation expected in an area, the more cities from that area there will be. Find your area below!

 

We will be going live Saturday Evening at 8:30 PM, and you will receive an invite link through your email to join us and ask questions if you’d like!

Josh has been passionate about weather as long as his memory dates! From watching the Weather Channel at age 7, to making hand-drawn hurricane maps at age 11, starting his first weather site at 13, and founding PWA at 15 and forecasting for the state for the past 9 years, Josh's interest in weather has never dwindled! As difficult as it is, he greatly enjoys forecasting for Pennsylvania due to its countless microclimates. The state is an East Coast severe weather hotspot and nearly always home to the rain/snow line during winter storms!
