Snow showers overnight could produce accumulation north of I-80 and in the Laurel Highlands.
Moisture looks pretty limited, and the ground is still relatively warm. Snowflakes will have a hard time sticking, especially to paved surfaces. The grass, mulch beds, and rooftops could be dusted by very light accumulations, especially near I-80 and through the Laurels. These areas – including the higher terrain of Fayette and Westmoreland counties, along with forest, Mercer, Preston and Tucker counties – go under a Winter Weather Advisory at 1 p.m. today and will run through 1 p.m. Tuesday. Venango County is under a Lake Effect Snow Warning for the same time frame.
