A strong cold front crossed Pennsylvania during the early morning hours of March 12, 2022. A few rain showers accompanied the front across the area, and then a wave of low pressure developed along the front as it slowly pulled east of central Pennsylvania. As steadier precipitation arrived, colder air arrived behind the front and changed the rain over to snow from northwest to southeast across the area into the mid-morning of March 12. A relatively short-lived period of moderate to heavy snow produced widespread 4 to 6 inches of snow, with localized amounts approaching 10 inches. Gusty northwest winds resulted in considerable blowing snow and reduced visibilities for many locations by the afternoon of March 12, as low pressure continued northeastward and rapidly intensified off the New England coast.
