This was damage about 2 miles (as the crow flies) from me. Three Frontier poles down, two uprooted on Klinger Road in Upper Paxton Township Dauphin County.

This was the pic of the sky before the storm hit yesterday.

cool April will come to an end beginning this weekend.

Central Park temps during the summer are definitely too low because of bad siting. They are also very low with wind speeds for the same reason, they are blocked by foliage. Even here, right by the ocean we often beat them in summer high temps.

storm tracks depend on whats going on upstream though, none of these storms was even close to being a snowstorm here lol

That storm ran quickly up the coast, this one was a slow moving typical spring cut off low that you won't ever see during the winter.

41 when I left the house with winds doing their thing. Rainfall = .01”.

Yesterday's wind was impressive in the afternoon but just a few sprinkles with it. Nice cool breezy morning. Gotta cherish them before they're gone. You guys had two nice days this week so no one should be unhappy. Tomorrow and beyond look pretty darn good too...what a difference a week makes!

From this morning LWX AFD for Sunday into next week temperatures Thereafter, forecast uncertainty increases markedly, with both deterministic models and their respective ensembles showing considerable spread. This spread is illustrated well by comparing the GFS vs the Euro and Canadian. The GFS maintains one coherent trough, which progressively lifts northeastward over time, placing us on the warm side of the system on Sunday, with a strong cold frontal passage and much cooler air following for Monday. On the other hand, the Euro and Canadian break the initially positively tilted trough to our west into two pieces. The northern half of the trough rapidly progresses to our east on Sunday, causing high pressure to build to our north at the surface in its wake, and a back door cold frontal passage to occur, leading to much cooler temperatures on Sunday. The southern half of the trough is left behind as a cutoff upper low over the center of the country, which is subsequently picked up by a trailing trough. Southerly flow out ahead of that system would lead to a warming trend early next week, following cooler conditions on Sunday. To further illustrate the uncertainty, ensemble members from the GEFS, EPS, and GEPS show highs anywhere from the upper 40s to near 90 on Sunday, from around 50 to the lower 80s on Monday, and from the low 50s to mid 80s on Tuesday. Along with that, there`s also uncertainty with respect to precipitation. The current forecast calls for low-end chances for showers each day, which seems reasonable given the uncertainty.

Funny I work at BWI currently as an observer so these comments have been fun to read. I was not there 15 years ago as I was in my first year of college but I do remember the crew who worked during that time. We do not actually report snowfall anymore (even though we still record it ourselves) since the place we do snowfall observations is on a roof and the board is right next to an HVAC system lol. They sent it down the EMS/ fire team which is about 1 mile away from us and closer to the bay which I feel has an influence on totals. Unfortunately there are many times we find inconsistencies with their report and ours so Sterling still calls us for snowfall records to match and get a better understanding. The way I use to measure snow when we did have it was split the board in half. On 1/2 the snow would be untouched showing the total depth of the storm then on the other half we would split that in half again( 2 quarters) the one would be the 6 hour total (00, 06, 12, and 18z) while the other half (or quarter) would be the hourly snowfall accumulation so we could get an idea for SNINCR within the remarks. End of day would be a depth and 24hr total new snowfall which would be done at 12z each day. Now that we do not by FAA standards do snowfall recordings we leave everything blank.

two lonestar bites for me this spring

Got my first tick bite today, so at least we got that out-of-the-way!

Road trip to New Brunswick!

Tomorrow

Looks paltry!

nice downsloping winds

It's still very early but so far the current roster construction has multiple flaws from last year and none were fixed and in some cases got worse. All the attention is on Burnes leaving but O'Neil is not Santander. Santander was one of the few clutch hitters the Os had last year. They are worse in multiple spots. Oneill worse than Santander. Morton much,much worse than Burnes. Lacking at back up catcher. Worse in the outfield. This is looking like a 70 win team. This is on Elias no doubt.

Definitely saw very small hail on the way home. So sick of this cool rainy stuff. Yesterday was so nice, wish we could even get sustained 60s and a few dry days in a row.

This was not any kind of advisory event. We had like 2 hours of occasionally gusty winds and they died down before sunset. I think the winds gusted like once every 10 minutes for 2 hours. Not even 50 mph here, maybe 40, but even that's pushing it.

Oh I agree. Feels like Elias took winning for granted.
