Special Weather Statement issued November 19 at 9:29PM EST by NWS State College PA

Effective: Wed November 19, 2025, 9:29 PM
Expires: Thu November 20, 2025, 5:00 AM

Locally dense fog will reduce visibility to a quarter mile or less in spots through the night. At the same time, many locations are near or even below the freezing mark. This may lead to slick spots on roads, especially bridges and overpasses, and on sidewalks. If traveling, be prepared for changes in visibility over a short distance, and also for a thin layer of ice that may be difficult to recognize. The fog will dissipate and visibility will steadily improve in the morning.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
