Today is the last day of Snow Squall Awareness Week. Snow squalls are one of the most dangerous winter weather phenomena. After this week, you know what they are, how to be safe, and where to get the necessary information to always stay weather aware! #SnowSquallSafetyPA #PAwx

Multi-car pileups are what make snow squalls deadly. What should you do if you’re in a pileup? Whatever you do, DO NOT stand outside your vehicle on or near the roadway. Follow the guidance below from @PAStatePolice #SnowSquallSafetyPA #PAwx

A chilly and damp night is in store for central PA with temperatures falling into the 30s combined with scattered light rain and pockets of drizzle. Rainfall amounts will generally be light as it falls into a dry airmass across the region.

When a snow squall hits, visibility can drop to almost nothing in an instant. There is no safe place on a highway during a snow squall, but what if you get stuck on the road? Reduce your speed, turn on your headlights, and don’t slam on your brakes! #SnowSquallSafetyPA #PAwx

🌧️A cold rain continues to move into west-central PA. In Somerset, PA it's raining with a temperature of 36°F. A good day for soup! 🍲Rain will struggle to get much farther east than the Susquehanna River. #PAwx

When a Snow Squall Warning is issued for your location, avoid or delay motor travel until the squall passes. Even if it “looks” safe, visibility can drop within minutes! There is no safe place on a highway during a snow squall. More: weather.gov/ctp/snowsquall #SnowSquallSafetyPA

Wildfire danger is still high across much of the state. More than 20 counties have enacted burn bans, in addition to all state parks, state forests, and state game lands. Local municipalities and county offices may have additional burning restrictions or ban information. Please…

Today's theme is snow squall safety. When a snow squall hits, strong winds, a sudden drop in temperatures, and heavy snow bursts create very dangerous and life threatening travel. Simply put, there is no safe place on a highway during a snow squall. #SnowSquallSafetyPA #PAwx

For a flash freeze to occur, air temperatures must be 32°F or lower. As such, snow squalls can happen anytime between November and March. Remember this video when snow squalls are in the forecast. There is no safe place on a highway during a snow squall. #SnowSquallSafetyPA

Clear skies will allow temps across central PA to dip below freezing overnight. Patchy fog is also possible overnight, mainly across northwestern PA. Expect sunny skies for Wednesday, then increasing clouds Wed night ahead of rain, and possibly some snow showers on Thursday.
