These are the reports as of 7am. I will forward others this afternoon
if I can make it back for lunch or else when I get home from work
tonight. I'm not even sure that I can get to work yet.

My report from State College PA this morning is that I have 11" of snow
on the ground, and it's still falling, heavy at times (7am).
Temperature is 27.

I'm taking the videocamera to work with me to work in case there is
anything interesting so it will not update until lunchtime when I can
hopefully return to home base here.

Now... to try to get my tiny car through a foot of snow...

Other reports this morning:

West Haven CT - Member Gary Townley
temp. 42
hum. 100
press 28.99
wind w 10-17mph
sky cloudy no precip.
the lowest pressure recorded at this station in 11 years. Since
Hurricane Gloria. I think 1986.

WATSONTOWN, PA: MEMBER GREG DROLLINGER

STORM TOTAL OF 7 1/2" AS OF 3 AM. THE SNOW WAS SO HEAVY BEFORE, I
COULDN'T
SEE ACROSS THE STREET! NOW THERE IS JUST LIGHT SNOW FALLING, AND I
EXPECT
IT TO STAY THAT WAY HERE FOR THE MOST PART, JUDGING BY RADAR & SAT
LOOPS.
CURRENT NEXRAD ALSO INDICATES THAT MOST OF THE SNOW IS NORTH OF
WILLIAMSPORT, ALTHOUGH THERE IS SOME HEAVY SNOW OVER CENTRE AND
HUNTINGDON
COUNTIES STILL. I FIGURE THAT THE TOTAL HERE WILL BE AROUND 8 INCHES.
THERE WAS MAJOR BACK UP ON I-80 IN THE LATE EVENING HOURS AND PAST
MIDNIGHT.
A TRACTOR TRAILOR FLIPPED AND BLOCKED THE ENTIRE WESTBOUND LANE FROM
11:30
TO 1:15. THE PRESSURE IS VERY LOW HERE. IT HAS BEEN FALLING LIKE A
ROCK
ALL NIGHT AND IS NOW AT 29.07"!!!!! THIS STORM WAS CERTAINELY VERY
INTERESTING!!!!!
