On a warm spring day, I think this was probably in 2003 or 2004, I was standing outside with a colleague at lunch and we were looking west across the river. (this is a 100% true story BTW) I say to the guy, "man...what an incredibly beautiful day!" (It was one of those days that the sky was the deepest of blues imaginable and it was probably about 65-70 at the time) After a few seconds of silence, his response was "eh, look over the landfill...there's a cloud over there." Sure enough, in the midst of a sky that was 99.98% clear...there was a single, small cumulus cloud to our southwest. One cloud. Perfect day. But he found that one cloud... #wasitactuallyruinthatIwastalkingto?

I responded to Elliott's post and informed him that according to you, his thinking is dead wrong and that he needs to do better. Shoot, I think he already pulled his thoughts down.

Elliott posted the map below and said he's not surprised... #itstimeforitstrainingtime'sacstartup

Franklin is finally trying to both appease the fan base while also acknowledging that he needs to do more to get to the level he's expected to reach.

Need high pressure in a good location for us.

Rain indeed, but the infamous central PA hole is alive and well!

I don't disagree at all...my human nature is to try and make people happy/satisfied. So much so that's it ties into my occupation. I'll get used to talking to myself over there.

I find it sort of weirdly satisfying that Franklin poached Knowles from THE. I feel like PSU is far too often on the other end of those types of shenanigans.

You know, you're absolutely right. And to that point, I just created a banter thread for all non-weather related topics. I've contributed more of that stuff than anyone here, and thank you @pasnownut @CarlislePaWx @Voyager and others who have asked for this for a long time. Message received. Some have been skeptical or have not desired to have a separate thread but I'm willing to do my part and give it a go.

It's time. I've contributed as much if not more posts that are non-weather related than anyone here. Thread will only be as good/active as our family wants to engage here.

Petering out over Peter's Mountain?

(Someone tell CTP) Wednesday Mostly sunny, with a high near 45. Breezy, with a west wind 14 to 19 mph increasing to 20 to 25 mph in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 46 mph.

Too much going on to look this morning but my low of 35 was the first morning in some time that stayed above freezing.

I did a little (emphasis on that) research over lunch, it appears as if January 2025 will be the first BN temp month at MU since November 2023 if I'm reading this correctly. https://www.atmos.millersville.edu/~wic/climo/t-anomaly.htm The last month that MU was at least 5 degrees BN was April 2018. Edit: The cold Januarys of 1977 and 1994 really stand out on that graph. We all talk about 1994, for old guys like myself, 1977 will always be the benchmark. Over 11 degrees below normal for the month. The Chesapeake Bay was walkable shore to shore that winter.

Thank you! That's quite helpful. Here is the exact forecast for Wednesday in Maytown which would validate your post: Wednesday A slight chance of rain showers between 1pm and 4pm, then a slight chance of snow showers after 4pm. Partly sunny, with a high near 45. Breezy, with a west wind 15 to 24 mph, with gusts as high as 45 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%.

My CTP forecast for Wednesday is "Breezy, with gusts to 45mph". I wonder what constitutes windy?

Other than completely exposed south-facing areas, I still have pretty much solid snow cover. Current depth is 1" in open areas facing south to 4" in sheltered areas. Been some time that I've had continuous snow cover for over a week's time.

Hopefully the Eagles can beat the Chiefs. And the Referee...the Umpire...the Field Judge...the Back Judge...the Line Judge...the Down Judge...the Side Judge... I don't complain about officiating. Like hardly ever. I think it's just in bad taste. But when the Line Judge comes running in last night a full yard beyond the line to gain (which, in fairness, Josh Allen did not clear that line by a full yard, but I thought the ball broke the line easily) and ends up "backing up" to JUST behind the line to gain...I've about had enough of Orange-tainted calls. Back to weather. I needed to get that out.

Craziness...my low was 21.

Great point. Just like hockey, sometimes the bounces don't go your way.

Washington self-destructing today. Different game if they play clean football.

I don't see those things anywhere in my closet...

Up to 44 as 26 makes PSU proud.

Overachiever once again...42 here at 12:15pm.
