Thursday Blurb

Another day of severe weather!

 

As the low in the midwest pushes towards the northeast, a continuous stream of storms will move into the area. Already severe storm watches have been posted, along with flash flood watches. Definitely keep a look out as these watches may change to warnings.

 

Several of these storms have also already been capable of producing several tornadoes as we have seen in Alabama today - something that we could see in eastern PA. Additionally, gusts up to about 35mph are possible. It's going to be a busy day for weather!

Severe weather will be the story for the third stay, this time more severe than the last two days.  Moderate risk of severe weather for Western PA, and Slight risk for the rest of PA.  So be warned and be alert for tomorrow.

Get ready for some rumbles.

Please, Please, Please watch the skies and www.weather.gov as we have a cold front pushing through the state today, and assoicated with that is some severe weather.  The SPC has put a slight risk for the Eastern third of the state today, but the severe weather could begin earlier in our region of interest.

Hello all,

Friday should be a continuation of the nice weather associated with the high pressure system that we have enjoyed on Thursday. Unfortunately, this high pressure will begin to exit the picture in the evening, bringing in a low pressure system that will affect the region in the first half of the weekend. No worries about watching the weather on Friday, but stay tuned for Saturday, as flood threats are certainly possible.

Hello all,

Expect a wave of precipitation associated with a low pressure system to the south to affect the Commonwealth all day Friday. Heavier precipitation bands will in the southern areas, while northern regions will receive lesser amounts. There is a possibility of some nuisance flooding, but I don't think that it will be a widespread threat, thus there is no need to be extra vigilant with looking for any advisories.

Hello all,

We have had peaceful weather on Thursday, thanks to a high pressure system that was situated over the region for the past couple of days. This pattern should continue into Friday, so I don't expect much in the way of severe weather during the day. This weekend should have soaking rains throughout the Commonwealth, especially late in the weekend, so if you can, look out for possible flood watches or advisories being posted at the latter part of the day.

Have a great Spring Break!

--Nick Parker

High pressure has worked itself into our region for the mid-week, but a cold front will push through.  Good news is the fact this front will be dry, so only clouds to deal with.  Our next system comes at the start of Spring Break.

As a low pressure system approaches on Monday, with it will come plenty of rain, showers, and possible thunderstorms. This, along with current snow melt, could make for some pretty good flooding throughout the state. There are already Flood Watches issued for most of PA. There is a high potential for more watches, warnings, and advisories to pop up, so do keep a watchful eye on tomorrow's weather; should be a busy day!

After the major storm of Friday, we return to calmer weather this weekend.  Snow will fall across Northern PA (mainly along NY-PA border and North of I 80), watch if any advisory get posted.  Besides that Flood Watches will most likely be posted this weekend for the nice warm weather of Monday.

Hello all,

We are without any doubt in a very active regime, with a cornucopia of advisories, watches, and warnings throughout the Commonwealth, ranging from Winter Storm Warnings to Flood Watches to High Wind Warnings. This is due to the rather strong low pressure system that is currently causing the severe weather outbreak in the southeastern United States. As the low tracks through the Commonwealth on Friday, be prepared for heavy rain and gusty winds as the cold front moves through. Although the precipitation will be subsiding throughout the day, the flooding potential remains high due to melting snow packs. Be prepared for any new advisories being posted, especially for wind and flooding.

On a semi-related note, Monday looks like a good pattern for some thundershowers!

-- Nick

Wednesday Blurb

Sunshine should rule the skies today under high pressure building in from the west.  Temperatures should reach around freezing.  Unless CTP (State College NWS) is on something, no watches or warnings or advisories should be posted (even for Friday's delight).

Hello all,

Unfortunately, our honeymoon with springlike temperatures will be cut short Friday, as a cold front will begin to pass through the Commonwealth from mid-morning in the northwest to the afternoon and the evening in the southeast. There will be scattered showers from the approaching front, but they should be on the light side. Because of this, I am not concerned about any decent threat of advisories being posted, but it is always good practice to keep an eye out for it.

Hello everyone,

Things are finally quieting down in Pennsylvania, and with a warm-up on the way! Currently, there's nothing in the way of rain or snow, but it's getting blustery out there. Sustained NW winds of 20-25 mph are possible, with gusts potentially reaching 45-50 mph. A few advisories have already been issued from Bradford all the way south into Johnstown, so watch out for any more that may pop up.

-Erin Rohland

A warm up?  Sadly yes.  But before that we will be dealing with two light clippers passing for Western and North Central PA Saturday and Sunday.  Nothing should not really accumulate, but watch out for any advisories.  Other than that it should be mostly to partly cloudy for the rest of the state.  For those still here, enjoy the quiet campus.

Hello all,

We are experiencing rather chilly weather throughout the Commonwealth, with cloud streams coming from the west. There are also a few Wind Chill Advisory counties in the northwest region of the state, slated to expire at 10am. These should expire because of the warm air advection that will occur when the high pressure system will slide to the east. This is all ahead of relatively weak clipper systems that will affect the area this weekend. Snow showers or flurries should start late Friday night. Although the clipper systems will be rather weak, just keep an eye out for any alerts in the extreme northern reaches of our coverage area.

-- Nick Parker

Good evening!

There really is not any potential for severe weather over the next few days according to the models. The only thing to look out for is Wind Chill Advisories as temperatures will dip into the single digits tomorrow night.

Wednesday Blurb

COLD!!!!  Wind Chill Advisory for all of BFB listening area until 10am, same from WKBI, and WCNS for Indiana County until 10am.  It is going to be cold today and tonight, so once again we will have to watch for wind chill as temperatures drop like flies to around 0.  This is as high pressure from the Northern Rockies moves south and east into the Mid-west and TN River valley.

Hello all,

For once in a long time, virtually all of the state is currently under clear skies! Not much will be happening during Friday, but this will transition during the night into a period of mixed precipitation throughout the Commonwealth during the weekend. The northeastern counties of Carbon and Monroe already have a Winter Storm Watch in effect from late Friday night through Saturday evening. Based on that, be on the lookout (especially during the latter half of the day) for any watches, advisories, or warnings being posted during the day for the weekend storm.

The second bang of the two bang storm will begin tonight tonite and will leave the state late morning in the west, to late afternoon in the east.  Everything is called in as of now, if anything changes, aka someone goes under ICE STORM WARNING, it needs to be called in right away.  So watch radar, and State College WFO, as the main www.weather.gov is still having issues.

Hello everyone,

The nicer weather we saw today is unfortunately coming to an end, as a major winter storm is headed our way from the Midwest. Currently, winter storm watches are covering almost the entire region, with the exception of the very northeastern tip of PA. Definitely monitor this situation carefully tomorrow, as these watches could very well turn into warnings. I think we can easily see up to 3-4 inches of snow from this storm, before turning into mostly sleet and freezing rain on Tuesday. Stay tuned for tomorrow's update!

A clipper system will provide snow for the region on Saturday.  Please watch for any advisories that do pop up.  I do believe the models are under doing the clipper.  Look at today for reference.  Sunday will be nice and partly sunny.  Our eyes turn to the west next week yet again.

Hello all,

This week has been fairly active snow-wise, and Friday will be no exception. Currently, snow showers associated with a clipper system are moving through the northwest areas of the Commonwealth. As for duration, the clipper should clear the area by Friday night. Accumulations in the affected areas shouldn't exceed an inch, but higher elevations may see greater amounts of snow. I'm not expecting much in the way of watches, warnings, or advisories, due to the relatively disorganized nature of the clipper. Looking forward to the weekend, a stronger and more organized clipper system will affect the area, so stay tuned for tomorrow's update!

- Nick Parker

Thursday Blurb

Today we will see lingering snow flurries. As the clipper moves off of the coast, temperatures will warm up into the upper 20s and quite possibly the lower 30s. Do not expect any advisories or watches as severe weather will not be an issue throughout the day.

Shannon Grumbly

Evening all:

Hope all of you have enjoyed your mild Tuesday, and have looked and scratched, and pondered on what the hell is coming for tomorrow.  Sadly we will see hardly any snow here as a storm system works its way up the coast.  Places to the South and East of us have already gone under advisories.  State College is calling about 2" for us and surrounding areas, including some of our counties that we must watch.  Therefore I expect some of BFB and WKBI to go under Winter Weather Advisories for the storm.  I will give everyone an equal shot to get these called in if they happen.  If they are not called in by 10:30am, I will call them in.  Also WCNS has Eastern Westmoreland County under a Winter Weather Advisory, this too must be called in by 10:30am tomorrow before I call it in.  I am doing this so that you guys can get some points, and it is just not me calling everyone in, this is a team effort.

Hello All,

Friday should shape up to be an interesting day weather-wise. The current snowfall experienced throughout the commonwealth should move out of the picture as the Winter Weather Advisory expires at 9AM Friday morning. As the low moves off towards New England, it should also deepen, which will strengthen the northwest winds associated with the low's departure. Although the relatively strong winds will cause blowing snow throughout the state, it will also bring in much colder temperatures for the weekend. I'm not expecting too much activity after the storm passes, but keep on the lookout for anything that is associated with the wind and cold.

This will be the case for all 3 radio clients.  So get tweeting fingers and phones ready, its going to be fun watching this!
