Regional Weather Summary
National Weather Service State College PA
352 PM EDT Mon Apr 14 2025

A cold front will bring some showers and even a thunderstorm
to the Keystone state this evening. Some showers may linger into
Tuesday. Some snow will be possible across the far north and west
late Tuesday into early Wednesday, as much colder air works into
the region. A few inches of snow will be possible.

Some of the storms could be on the strong to even the severe
side across far southwestern Pennsylvania this evening.

In addition, gusty winds over 40 mph will prevail on Tuesday
and Wednesday.

Lows tonight will range from the lower 40s across the north and
west, to the lower 50s across the southeast. High temperatures
will range from the mid 40s across the northwest, to the lower
60s across the southeast. Lows Tuesday night will range from
the upper 20s to lower 30s across the mountains, to the mid to
upper 30s elsewhere.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service State College PA
127 AM EDT Tue Apr 15 2025

.SYNOPSIS...
* SHRA/TSRA in advance of a pair of fronts
* Become windy and turning much cooler with rain throughout
Central PA
* A light accumulation of snow from more numerous snow showers
across the western mountains late Tues into Wed.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 AM THIS MORNING/...
Strong (40-50KT) of deep layer shear along the dry line/front
where it nudges some meager moisture. Subtle jet streak of 125KT
at 3H has pushed into wrn NY, so these might be in the right
entrance region of that jetlet. They are very disorganized now
after being more discrete mini supercells. Those cells were
splitting, and some may have made some small hail. Still worth
monitoring as some still have mesos inside them. Dry air
underneath the storms would likely make it difficult to spin a
tor to the sfc.

Just rain now along the MD border after earlier convection died
after hitting drier airmass. Rest of the night should have the
current convection along the front starting to wane in an hour
or two and become much more scattered as the jetlet moves away
and they hit the dry and stable air in the eastern half of the
CWA. Mins will hold in the 50s SE, but the much drier and cooler
air will be into the NW shortly. Mins NW around 40F.

&&

.SHORT TERM /8 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
Cyclonic NW flow will aloft and with falling heights due to
deepening trough axis over PA bring chilly days Tue and
Wednesday and sct-nmrs post frontal showers over northwest PA,
as well as generally the higher terrain of northern PA and the
Alleghenies...extending into the Central Mountains. Downsloping
and drying westerly wind and moderately strong cold advection
at low to mid levels will combine with anomalously deep vertical
mixing to create wind winds of 45+ mph later Tuesday morning
into Tues Evening. Wind Advisory remains in effect from 14Z Tues
to 00Z Wed.

This downsloping/drying flow will lead to much less in the way
of shower activity by the time you get to the Susquehanna
Valley. However, clouds are still likely to have the upper hand
for many areas on Tuesday, along with a stiff breeze, and
noticeably chillier temperatures. In fact, by later in the day,
low-level temperatures will likely be cold enough to support wet
snow showers over the higher terrain.

Tuesday night and Wednesday will be downright chilly with
frequent snow showers and flurries over the Alleghenies and
extending into the Central and N Central Mountains. There are
hints of Huron connection streamers to potentially nose into the
Central Mountains late Tuesday night and early Wednesday. While
inversion heights lower on Wednesday and snow showers/flurries
diminish, highs will only reach the mid to upper 30s north and
the upper 40s to around 50 south.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
1030 PM Update... Latest NBM seems acceptable. No major swings
with perhaps a little mild temps for Easter Sunday with this
cycle. Sat will be the warmest day with widespread 70s to near
80F numbers.


Prev...
The chilliest night/morning of the upcoming cold stretch should
be Wednesday night/Thursday morning as the sfc ridge axis
extends from northern Ontario to the central Appalachians
Thursday morning along with clear skies. Winds won`t entirely
die off in this northerly flow, but frost and/or freeze
conditions will be monitored for midweek. High pressure on
Thursday will lead to plenty of sunshine, low RH and decreasing
winds. The week will end on a milder note with southerly winds
helping temperatures trend above normal again on Friday. The
late week system continues to slow down with recent model runs,
with the upper trough trending weaker/more zonal. This outcome
would favor comparatively milder temperatures and lighter
precipitation. A weak cool front may drop across the region on
Saturday, followed by cool and dry conditions once again, but
considerable uncertainty exists as to the location of backdoor
cold front, with even some onshore flow possible south of that
boundary somewhere over the mid Atlantic region.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
A few elevated rain showers are continuing to linger across the
northeast. Overall rain will continue on a downward trend with
most sites expected to stay dry for the remainder of the
overnight hours.

Thus the main concern late tonight into Tuesday will be gusty
winds from the northwest, as a strong cold front moves
east of the area. Wind gusts on Tuesday could exceed 40kts
across the western half of the state near JST, AOO, and UNV.

Another chance for showers will arrive on Tuesday, as the upper
level trough moves eastward across the area, and the cold air
deepens. Also main chance for lower CIGS will be later in the
day into Wed. Some chance of snow at BFD and JST Tuesday into
early Wed.

Outlook...

Tue-Wed...Gusty northwest winds (likely in the 25-35 kt range).
Rain and snow showers will primarily occur at KBFD and KJST,
with associated restrictions. Generally VFR elsewhere for the
central PA terminals.

Thu...VFR.

Fri...Rain showers and possible restrictions could develop by
afternoon.

Sat...Widespread showers. Perhaps a thunderstorm, as a cold
front moves eastward across the region.

&&

.CTP WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
Wind Advisory from 10 AM this morning to 8 PM EDT this evening
for PAZ017>019-024>027-033>035.
