Updated Dec 15, 2020;
Central Pennsylvanians should use extreme caution if they need to leave home during Wednesday’s nearly 24-hour snowstorm in which 12 to 18 inches could be dumped onto the midstate, forecasters said.
In a winter storm warning, the National Weather Service said “travel could be very difficult to impossible” Wednesday in a number of central Pennsylvania counties. Both the morning and evening commute will be affected by the snow, the NWS said.
“The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation and Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission strongly encourage motorists to heed all travel restrictions and delay unnecessary travel as significant winter weather conditions will make travel very hazardous,” the NWS said.

Mayor Derek Slaughter says he is prepared to use $450,000 of an $850,000 City Hall renovation account to lower the cost on city taxpayers in his proposed $29 million 2021 budget.
But an executive at the Center for Independent Living, 24 E. Third St., an agency advocating on behalf of the disabled, said she wonders if removal of half of that account might mean further delayed accessibility upgrades to City Hall.
“Access to City Hall is a civil right for Williamsport city residents with disabilities and we would hope that should be a priority for the administration and council,” said Misty Dion, the CEO of the Center for Independent Living-Roads to Freedom upon learning about Slaughter’s intention.
