Wild Pressure Swings, Snow in NE
Light snow from a coastal storm and heavier lake-effect snow blanketed much of the Northeast overnight. To see how the storms mixed, check out a 1-day radar loop.
GET INVOLVED!
Temperatures were above freezing outside of the interior Northeast, so the snow didn't cause any traffic problems in the major cities.
In fact the New York City cams showed snow on the ground and on vehicles but traffic appeared to be moving rapidly.
If your ears are popping or you have a headache, it's no wonder -- it's been a wild pressure ride this week in the Northeast. Here in State College in Central PA, we have gone from 29.80" to almost 30.80" and back again in just a few days. Pressure readings above 30.60" are rare in the continental U.S, as are swings of an inch in a few days.

We've even got a dusting of snow on the ground outside AccuWeather HQ this morning (you can see it on the The J-CAM -- sadly, it's the most snow we've had all winter!)
