Huntingdon County EMA Forecast for today from the National Weather Service State College: Rain and snow likely before noon, then a slight chance of rain during the early afternoon. Cloudy, with a high near 41. New snow accumulation of half an inch, with up to an inch possible in a few spots. A WINTER STORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT FROM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING. Heavy snow is possible. Total snow accumulations of 6-12 inches are expected. HCEMA

HUNTINGDON COUNTY WEATHER BRIEFING: From the National Weather Service State College- Steady rain will continue into early Friday morning. Rainfall accumulations of 1-2" will be beneficial for the drought-stricken region. Poor drainage from leaf debris may make local flooding a possibility, but antecedent dry conditions will limit overall flood potential. The Huntingdon County EMA outlook for today: Rain. High near 48. New precipitation amounts between 1 and 2 inches possible. HCEMA

Public Information Statement- Weather Light snow is expected Monday morning across Huntingdon County, and ending by the early afternoon. A coating to one inch of snow is expected, although a few spots could see close to 2 inches. Although most roads should stay mainly wet, the snow could cause slick travel on some untreated roads, especially those in higher elevations and the Southern Huntingdon County and Broad Top areas. A much more significant storm system will likely cause a widespread moderate to heavy snowfall over Huntingdon County and much of much of Central PA on Wednesday afternoon into Thursday. We'll have an updated briefing on that weather system on Monday. HCEMA
