Winter Weather in Juniata, Pennsylvania

A winter storm produced 4 to 5 inches of snowfall in Juniata County in the morning and afternoon hours of January 6 with additional light accumulations continuing into January 7, 2024. Two separate accidents on the westbound lane of US Route 322 involved a total of 13 vehicles and led to eight people being transported, with an additional accident elsewhere on US Route 322 leaving one vehicle overturned.

Low pressure stationed off the New England Coast allowed for a long duration snowfall across much of central Pennsylvania beginning in the morning hours of January 6th with the bulk of snowfall ending in the evening hours. As the low pressure system moved further east on January 7th, northwesterly flow allowed for orographically enhanced snow showers to continue into January 7th along the Allegheny Mountains.
