JamieO Bio

Jamie Oberdick lives in Port Matilda, PA. Jamie has had a life-long interest in meteorology that he believes started when he witnessed a foot-deep snowstorm at the age of four.

Jamie worked for AccuWeather from 2002 until 2005 as a marketing communications coordinator. He currently works for Penn State University as a publications editor with Teaching and Learning with Technology, a unit of Information Technology Services.

As part of this blog, he will contribute his thoughts and observations about weather in the Centre County region of the WJAC viewing area.

Jamie was born in York, PA, and also lived in Pittsburgh for 12 years. He lives in Port Matilda with his wife and three cats, including one that may be as enthused about snow as he is.

Saturday: Lake effect snow will end from south to north as the day wears on. Look for more sunshine in the afternoon but it will stay cold.

L. Highlands:
Mid 20s
E. Alleghenies:
Near 30
N. Alleghenies:
Around 25

Sunday: This will be the pick of the weekend if you want some sunshine. It will be milder, but still well below average.

L. Highlands:
Low to Mid 30s
E. Alleghenies:
Mid to Upper 30s
N. Alleghenies:

Monday: Our break from the snow comes to an end with another cold front moving through.

Mid 30s

Long Term: Tuesday could end up being a fairly snowy day, especially in the Laurels and Northern Alleghenies on the back side of low pressure on the east coast. Snow from that system plus some lake effect thrown in will certainly cause some accumulations. We'll update you throughout the weekend, as next week is a huge travel week!
