    Just wait for the gamma, kappa, and sigma strains......maybe zeta, who knows!? Oh my!!! Yawn.

    Yeah and the HRRR has been hinting at some areas of moderate to heavy rain this evening but unfortunately one of the GFS's greatest known biases is overdoing the extent of light precipitation. Failed Elsa has, into exile she must go *my best Yoda voice*

    Oh don't I know it. On the other side of those intense outer swirling bands are often strong zones of subsidence. Such is the game of chance we call weather.

    I am not amused. Our best shot over here may be with the weak frontal passage tomorrow afternoon. Still holding out hope for some action this evening, as some of the other models want to bring something through. But the best of Elsa's remnants almost certainly seem to be staying east.

    So true. Take Lancaster County for instance, my little area in the northwest part of the county is well under average the past couple of months while the rest of the county is fine. I've only gotten an inch in the past three and a half weeks.

    Topped out at 98 here today. Luckily we were able to take a late afternoon dip in my parent’s pool. Looks like no rain out this way tonight, really hoping to get in on the western edge of that Elsa action late tomorrow.

    touché

    Yeah I believe it, sad what's become of so many of these small towns. I will say Penns Tavern is a cool place, stopped there a time or two.

    Don't be, it just means I'm a weirdo

    Well played gentlemen, well played *applauding*

    Eh loosely but not as much as other areas. However, I do consider myself a bit of a PA geography buff. The guys at work used to razz me because I could fill in all 67 counties on a blank map. I will say that most of my family is from the Sunbury area but I've rarely traveled on your side of the river, although my Grandma's favorite spot for years was the Herndon House haha. Is that still a thing?

    I'm going to venture a guess that you're closer to Pillow than Dalmatia? I could study terrain maps for a lifetime and be content ha. Feel free to shut me up if you think I'm giving away too much about your personal location haha.

    97 here as well.

    Indeed. I put a hurting on our friend's whiskey cache, although not as viciously as I would have in the past. Having a baby will do that ha.

    Damn right I do! Although I've only been in Warren once and that was while visiting the Allegheny National Forest. Bet you guys had an amazing weekend up there.

    Hmmmmm actually I'm drawing a blank. Where is that gift shop exactly? I do love myself a good dinner at that Log Cabin Inn though yum yum.

    I'm back in action. We were out in the sticks of western PA for a few days so left the phone by the bedside. Stopped at Ohiopyle on Friday and then stayed outside of Smithton for a couple days with some friends. Actually had better weather out there than you guys had here back east. Only had .1" in the gauge from the Fri - Sun period while we were gone, a bit disappointing. Looks hot for a while, but it is July so I guess we can live with that.

    My buddy’s cabin that I’ve been going to for decades is just west of you, a few miles south of Gaines on top of a hill. It really is like leaving the modern world behind when you go up there, love it.

    what do ya know, exactly the same here.

    Great post Bubbs, but if I recall correctly there was another June that was hotter, I wanna say 1943?? Don't have time to check right now....
  21. Mount Joy Snowman
    Well, despite being a warned storm the gust front never arrived here, although I did get some much needed liquid H2O to the tune of ~.3", bringing me to almost a half inch for the day.

    As Oberyn Martell once uttered to Tyrion Lannister, "I will be your champion Wellsboro"......for the GOT fans out there, I may or may not have added the word Wellsboro......
  23. Mount Joy Snowman
    You bite your tongue about Wellsboro!

    So, I finished June with 2.33" on ten days of measurable precip. Pretty remarkable that for Harrisburg it appears this will be the third hottest June on record despite carrying an anomaly of only 3 degrees above average, and yes I understand those anomalies only compare against the most recent 30-year period, not the entire period of record (in reality it's more like 4.4 degrees above average), but still......

    That whole Kenai Fjords area is amazing. We had to have our day cruise out of Seward canceled when we were there due to smoke from the wildfires, which were plentiful due to the aforementioned heat wave they were experiencing. Good stuff Training!
