With temperatures 20 degrees below normal for April, Northumberland County saw precipitation in the form of snow and sleet Monday without accumulation, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).
NWS Meteorologist Craig Evanego said a deep upper level trough of low pressure caused surface pressure to develop along the mid-Atlantic coast and move into the area, bringing with it clouds full of snow and rain.
The high temperatures were in the low to mid 40s, which is 20 degrees below normal temperatures for this time of year, and low temperatures of upper 30s, he said.
There was a total of 1.25 inches of precipitation in the county since the storm started Saturday, Evanego reported.
Evanego said there was accumulation in State College, where there was a report of 6 inches five miles east of the college town. There was also reports of 4 to 8 inches of accumulation in Tioga County.
The temperatures for the remainder of the week will be moderate, staying in the forties until Friday when it rises to high 50s, he said.
There should be some light rain or a few wet snow flakes this morning, but that should taper off by the afternoon, he said.
The county is expected to have more rain showers in the coming days, but the weather will be mostly sunny on Friday and Saturday.
