The wider storm

A large winter storm brought periods of snow, sleet and freezing rain to central Pennsylvania. The initial round of mixed wintry precipitation (mainly snow and sleet) occurred during the early morning hours on the 1st, before tapering off to spotty freezing drizzle during the afternoon and evening. A steadier and much heavier round of freezing rain mixed with sleet overspread the region from the late evening on the 1st and continued until the early morning on the 2nd. A minor snow and sleet accumulation of 2 to 4 inches was common near and to the north of Interstate 80. Significant ice accumulations between one quarter to three quarters of an inch were observed over nearly the entire area.
