Itstrainingtime

I just hope that we all can get some snow. So much looks promising but I'll be honest...it bothers me that both Elliott and Chuck aren't enthused yet. They both like March. Hope they're right about that and wrong about February.

Yeesh, I need to be better than that. I misquoted him. I thought we were joking about setbacks, which was in his post. No wonder you posted what you did.

He said he's leaning warm for February with multiple cold shots. I think we were talking about this last week. "Setbacks"

Paul Knight (from Weather World fame) might be the most accurate forecaster I know of in my lifetime. He lives just outside of State College. He HATES cold weather with a passion. It's interesting how some of the people we look up to in forecasting aren't anything like we are.

I thought it was interesting too. Though, the next couple of weeks might not produce. Regardless, it won't be boring!

This thread was on page 4, now it's 3 pages. I wonder who removed posts?

Yes, they lost to Elco.

Low overnight was a chilly 17. Currently it's cloudy with some filtered sun and 24.

If anyone in the world reads LNP anymore, the headline in today's sport section has "Bubblers" in the title.

Yep, that's where I'm at as well. When I saw it was a 3 team deal I had my hopes up that we gave Embiid away. My understanding is that Morey doesn't want to do anything at the deadline.

Stunning. I don't think anyone saw that coming.

I cannot believe the things that people say to each other in OT. It's back and forth, every day, same group of people involved. I don't understand how or why they're not embarrassed by their own behavior.

Temp 29. First time in the 20s at this time of day in a while.

Most of the banter continues in the main thread. I can't nor do I want to try and force people to banter here, but I will continue to do so if there's any interest.

My anxiety over flying has increased big time this week. The scenes from Philadelphia last night were disturbing. Ugh.

Exactly the same here! 33 and .34"

Imagine the people in those homes.

Sucked that bad, huh?

Don't get me started... I just promised to be nice!

Ideally this would be a place that is laid back and friendly. Their is plenty of opportunity to be ugly, sarcastic and demeaning on the OT board. And that is the intended spot for political convo. I was careful with my thread tags in the title and purposely left out politics but I have shared my personal viewpoint in what was hopefully a very honest and respectful way. There were multiple people who asked for this, and at least one asked for it a couple of years ago. I thought it was time to break out as I really want to keep our little community intact. If someone checks in to see what's happening with the weather and has to wade through 40+ posts just to find something weather-related, I'm sympathetic to that.

Welcome! You and Sauss were both posting about the same event (PSU Wrestling) in 2 different threads earlier.

I'm kind of surprised that the NFL is back in New Orleans for the Super Bowl. Maybe this is unfair for me to say since I've never actually been in the building but I've always thought that the Superdome seems like a tomb. It comes across on TV as being very dark and uninspiring inside. Old too. A lot of the newer buildings are much brighter and vibrant...Ford Field, the place in Indy Atlanta, NRG in Houston and SoFi in LA are all "better" than the Superdome. And the Vikings place looks amazing.

Right, that makes sense. Well, some of the trends for rain today are troubling.

Did you say that the NWS Point and Click forecast is auto-generated? If so, I wonder how it's derived? My forecast was just slashed in half again. It's now showing a tenth to a quarter inch total. Earlier this morning it was a quarter to a half inch. Last night it was a half inch to an inch.

MU Weather Center 1/2 Once again, northern MD, southeastern PA and the LSV are caught in a dry pocket between heavier rain in VA/WV and light rain across northern PA and NY. However, I still expect a period of steadier rain between ~1-7 PM before it tapers off from W-to-E between 7-11:30 PM. 2/2 Due to this "dry slot," rainfall totals in most areas will now only range from 0.25-0.50", and that's unfortunate given the ongoing, moderate-to-severe #drought.
