At 8:50 a.m. on Saturday, the National Weather Service issued a forecast for lake effect snow in Northern Lycoming, McKean, Potter, and Tioga counties through 9:30 a.m.
A lake effect snow band was visible at 8:49 a.m. along a line that ran from close to Bradford to 16 miles southeast of Wellsboro. The weather service said that the lake effect snow band was almost motionless.
“In winter weather conditions, conditions can rapidly deteriorate,” the weather service says. Be ready for roads covered with ice or snow. Reduce your speed and give yourself more time to get there. If you have to go through or into this lake effect snow belt, proceed with additional caution. Accidents may result from abrupt changes in visibility and perhaps slick roads.
