A low pressure will be crawling northward from the south, and will likely cut up into the Great Lakes Region, putting our area on the warm side of storm. HOWEVER, a strong high pressure system will be sitting in Southeast Canada funneling in cold air into our region. Cold enough that many of us begin as snow, before transitioning to sleet and freezing rain, and then eventually all rain.
First map: This image gives you an overall summary of who can expect what.
Second Map: This is our ice severity map. Central PA looks to be the bulls-eye for a potentially major ice storm.
Third Map: This map outlines the areas for who can expect the best chance at seeing accumulating snowfall. As of now, this favor areas in the far northern tier.
Still 4+ days away, small changes can make big differences down the road. But, this is how we see it playing out for now. If you have travel plans Monday Evening into Tuesday Morning, have a back up plan! You will NOT want to be driving in this mess, I promise you.
