    Mesoscale Discussion 0113
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0455 AM CST Wed Feb 20 2019

    Areas affected...Northern Virginia and West Virginia...western
    Maryland...much of south-central Pennsylvania

    Concerning...Heavy snow

    Valid 201055Z - 201700Z

    SUMMARY...Snow rates are expected to increase into the 1-2"/hr range
    through mid-morning with an eventual changeover to sleet from south
    to north.

    DISCUSSION...Southwesterly flow aloft continues to moisten profiles
    this morning with a broad area of lift and precipitation extending
    from the OH Valley to the East Coast. Most of the precipitation is
    snow across the MCD area, but rain exists across central WV where
    warm advection in the 850-700 mb layer is strongest. Snow should
    remain the dominant precipitation type across the MCD area due to a
    surface ridge and cooler temperatures, but a warm nose aloft will
    eventually lead to snow changing to sleet from south to north later
    today. Until then, snow rates are expected to increase to over
    1"/hr, possibly up to 2"/hr at times from far northern VA/WV into
    south-central PA.
