Issue Date: 730 PM EST WED DEC 16 2009
Expiration: 730 PM EST THU DEC 17 2009
THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA.
.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.
NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.
LOW PRESSURE WILL DEVELOP NEAR THE SOUTHEAST U.S. COAST LATE
FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT...BEFORE MOVING NORTHEAST AND BECOMING
LOCATED OFF CAPE HATTERAS NORTH CAROLINA SATURDAY EVENING.
A RANGE OF FORECAST MODELS SHOWS SOME DISAGREEMENT IN THE STORM`S
TRACK AFTER THIS TIME. HOWEVER...OVER THE PAST 24 HOURS THERE HAS
BEEN A TREND FOR THE STORM TRACK TO BE FURTHER NORTHWEST AND
CLOSER TO THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC COAST.
THEREFORE...THE POTENTIAL EXISTS (THOUGH LOW AT THIS TIME) FOR
SIGNIFICANT SNOW ACCUMULATION TO OCCUR SATURDAY INTO EARLY SUNDAY
AS THE MAIN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE TRACKS JUST A FEW HUNDRED MILES
SOUTHEAST OF PHILADELPHIA AND NEW YORK CITY...WHILE A WEAKER LOW
HEADS EAST FROM THE OHIO VALLEY.
IF YOU PLAN TO TRAVEL THIS WEEKEND...ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE GOING
TO HEAD SOUTHEAST TOWARD THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR...KEEP
ABREAST OF THE LATEST NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECASTS WHICH
WILL BETTER DEFINE THE LIKELY TRACK OF THE LOW PRESSURE AREA.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO RELAY SNOWFALL REPORTS TO THE NATIONAL
WEATHER SERVICE IN STATE COLLEGE VIA THE INTERNET OR PHONE.
