Early Sunday morning, our crew of three departed for North Fort Myers, FL, to bring a patient back to Pittsburgh. The whole trip took 47.5 hours and covered 2,275 miles. Our crew had time to stop to see a few things along the way. A special thank you to Mike, Shannon, and Phil for taking time away from their families to complete this special trip.

** WINTER STORM SNOWFALL MAP FIFTHCALL **

Posted: 1/5/2025 at 9am. Check back for more updated information.

Timing: Late Sunday Night (after 11pm) through Monday night (10pm)

Confidence: HIGH

Our much-talked winter storm will be arriving in the state late Sunday night and linger throughout the day on Monday. I think a more northerly track will win out with this storm as I analyzed the current height patterns with the newest model initializations.

Significant impacts are expected across much of southern Pennsylvania where there is an increasing risk for 6" or more inches of snowfall. Minor to moderate impacts will stay at I-80 and southward. Travel plans on Monday should be put at a halt, with snow-covered roadways and interstates likely expected.

** HEAVY SNOWFALL RATES OF 1"+/HR WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTHERN PENNSYLVANIA MONDAY MORNING WHICH WILL LEAD TO VERY ROUGH TRAVEL CONDITIONS **

RED-DOTTED LINES: Those within the red-dotted line remain under the highest uncertainty. A 15-20 mile difference in the track will mean *SIGNIFICANT* changes in the snowfall amounts (aka, areas in the 3-5 could see 8-12 if it shifts north of areas in the 8-12 could see 3-5 if we see a southward shift).

If you are planning to travel, especially Monday morning and Monday afternoon, be on alert for snow-covered roadways and interstates, especially close to the PA/MD/WV borders.

Stay tuned and reach out with any questions/concerns!
