Here, 3 miles outside of Watsontown PA, it is currently (12:30
am)
sleeting at a good clip. It has been doing this much of last afternoon
and
evening, with the exception of between 6 and 8 pm when a break moved
over
the area. primarily snow fell during last morning, with accumulations
of
3.1". Just to my north, in Muncy, 7" fell! Sleet accumulations were
around
an inch. I never did experience much freezing rain at my location like
predicted, but areas of southern and western PA certainly did! Tree
limbs
down and many power outages are reported in western PA because of the
ZR.
Roadways are very hard to drive on, and in some areas virtually
impossible.
Several area roads here in the Middle Susquehanna valley have been
closed
because of too many accidents. Hundreds of schools in just
central/eastern
PA have closed both yesterday and today. Public places, like malls,
have
closed early yesterday. The Hazleton mall never even opened! That is
the
smart thing to do. You end up spending more money on electricity bills
and
paying the employees than you would ever make from the customers on a
day
like yesterday. Interstates like 80 and 180 were not well maintained
today.
Actually, only every few hours did a PennDOT truck even come by!
According
to them, temperatures were too cold to have the special chemicals (like
a
new anti-skid material, being used for the first time this year) work
effectively. Allentown PA didn't get out of the single digits all
afternoon! Temperatures were coldest at the lower elevations during the
day
today, due to cold air damming and warm air streaming in just a few
thousand
feet overhead.
Winter storm warnings remian in effect through this morning for most of
PA...
drive safely....
