  1. There was a big storm (24") in February of 83, but the winter of 83-84 was not a good one based off memory and my records. This is based as much on recollection as it is on facts, but I believe that generally speaking, abnormally cold or abnormally early season snowfall is NOT a harbinger for a good winter to follow...
  2. That's very impressive. I don't recall cold of this magnitude this early since I think it was 1983? That year I had a couple of frosts in September which came on the heels of getting down to the low 40s in late August. 37 and frostless here this morning. There has been some scattered frost the past 2 mornings around Lanco but nothing here as of yet.
  3. No frost advisory for me. That must be why my AC is currently running.
  4. Nice article on Lancaster Online today about Horst's retirement. Lancaster area people are going to miss him tremendously prior to and during winter weather events.
  5. Skyline Drive in the Shenandoah National Park. Though, if you can only go on a weekend it will be very crowded. Delaware Water Gap up near Stroudsburg is great too.
  6. My point and click for today is Mostly Sunny. The next 6 days are Sunny every day. Beautiful weather for sure - just wonder when it might rain again...
  7. All of my trips (approx. 20) have been to central FL and north and east of there. Many trips to Cocoa Beach and JAX. I often wondered what it was like in the panhandle.
  8. If it's snow, at least you'll be able to visit FL and enjoy it if you can't back up here.
  9. They got a lot of rain - and a heckuva lot more than you've gotten in many months. It's going to all even out this winter.
  10. Even though they've stumbled a bit lately there's no quitting in the O's. Nice to see them win a series against a very good Atlanta team. Akin was dealing tonight.
  11. It's all about the money. Imagine the cash cow that is PSU football on a fall Saturday with 107,000 fans shelling out the dough that they (okay, I) do.
  12. As an owner of 5 pets, 4 of which I rescued...my heart goes out to those of you who are dealing with sick animals. Talk about pulling on heartstrings... As pawatch mentioned, Sally's biggest story line is rain. Hard to fathom that some coastal areas might end up with more rain from Sally than Rouzerville sees during 2020.
  13. 65F at 2:00PM. Saw people in sweatshirts on the river trail at noontime. Not me of course, but still pretty awesome to see at noon in mid-September.
  14. From Horst: "Nice visualization of the smoke plume crossing North America from the western fires. The smoke layer over Pennsylvania is mainly between 15,000 - 20,000 feet, so there's no impact on surface air quality."
  15. Do I ever! I believe we had just had a strong cold front push through, and the forecast was for several days of refreshing, cool breezes and brilliant sunshine. At first I thought it was a colossal bust by all the mets until it was reported that the strong NW flow behind the front had ushered smoke from the Canadian fires right over PA. This is the 2nd most impressive "smoke event" that I can recall here.
  16. What a surreal sunset tonight. Wish I could have captured it but I was in traffic.
  17. Interesting that the sky is clearer in the direction the smoke is coming from.
  18. That's interesting...reading posts in the DC thread that smoke is obscuring the sky EAST of the Chesapeake...surprised it's not noticeable where you are. The sky here is almost 100% "white" with little to no blue visible.
  19. That's my assumption based on what I've been reading. Sky is very hazy.
