...A SEVERAL HOUR PERIOD OF ACCUMULATING WET SNOW EARLY TODAY...

A period of accumulating wet snow will occur during the early to
mid morning hours today as a compact, but potent upper level
disturbance tracks east from South-Central PA to the Southern
Poconos.

The snow will end to the west of Interstate 99 between 4 and 5 AM
and become focused across the Middle Susquehanna Valley and
Western Poconos between 5 and 8 AM.

Snow will likely stick on untreated roads and cause slushy
driving conditions. Snow accumulations on colder, grassy surfaces
will be 1 to 2 inches.

This short bout of wintry weather will impact the mid morning
commute to work and school across portions of Central PA, mainly
to the southeast of a line from Altoona to State College and
Williamsport. This includes the Middle Susquehanna Valley and
Western Poconos.

Use extra caution if you must travel this morning as potentially
slick roads may lead to accidents. Slow down and allow plenty of
stopping distance between you and the vehicle ahead. Avoid braking
suddenly.
