Fifteen years ago today, “Snowmageddon” bared down on western Pennsylvania with as much snow in 20 hours as we’ve seen so far this entire winter season.
This is a complicated system, and the forecast will change so stay with Severe Weather Team 11 for the latest updates and have the Severe Weather Team 11 app for alerts, watches and warnings.
Today will be cloudy and a touch colder with highs in the low 20s. We’ll have one more very cold night with most spots in the single digits as we wake up Saturday.
The brutal cold will continue through the middle of the week with temperatures averaging nearly 25 degrees below normal for this time of year.
Our next weather maker rolls in Friday night and early Saturday with on and off light snow.
High temperatures will be in the 30s Thursday and Friday, but it will barely make it out of the 20s this weekend.
Enjoy a brief break in our wet weather pattern on Tuesday but keep the umbrella handy as another system moves in later this week.
Have the umbrella packed to start the week, and you’ll get good use out of it for a couple of days.
Temperatures will be jumping for Sunday, giving us our warmest high temperatures since before Thanksgiving.
Winter weather alerts have been posted for much of the area into Friday as a blast of winter weather barrels into the area.
