If this is true, then I hope they build a few data centers around Tamaqua. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2521256-ai-data-centres-can-warm-surrounding-areas-by-up-to-9-1c/

23 here. My tulips are toast. Too many frosty mornings since they first popped out of the ground.

Not sure what happened, but CTP made a major correction overnight. Maybe mahantango's exorcism gif did the trick... Wednesday Night Showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 44. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Thursday A chance of showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 55. Chance of precipitation is 50%. Thursday Night Showers likely. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 40. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Friday Showers likely. Cloudy, with a high near 56. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Friday Night Showers likely. Cloudy, with a low around 46. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Saturday A chance of showers. Cloudy, with a high near 61. Chance of precipitation is 50%.

It wasn't the freezing rain that got me, but the cold air and chance of frozen precipitation falling. I'm pretty sure the snow (hopefully anyway) wouldn't accumulate either. I'm not saying I want 75 every day going forward, I'm just sick of the cloudy 40's, and wish we'd not drop below 50 on the cooler days.

Sweet mother of God. It just won't end... Wednesday Night Rain showers likely before 2am, then a chance of rain and snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 37. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Thursday A chance of rain and snow showers before 2pm, then a chance of rain showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 47. Chance of precipitation is 50%. Thursday Night Rain showers, snow showers, and freezing rain likely. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 35. Chance of precipitation is 70%. Friday Rain showers, snow showers, and freezing rain likely. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 47. Chance of precipitation is 60%.

I'd have to move whether my wife came with me or not. 40's all summer would close to literally make me want to kill myself.

C'mon man. You know better than this. Some people would love cloudy and 40 from now till October

But then there's next Fridays forecast. Back down into the 40's... Thursday Night Showers likely. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 38. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Friday A chance of showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 48. Chance of precipitation is 50%.

WTF.... It's only 38 in my Tamaqua backyard. Do we HAVE to get THIS cold the day after a 70+ reading? I'd be ok with 48-52, but really...

Like I said to Mikeymac, I may not understand the love of winter, but I at least try to respect it.

I hope so, because while I may not be able to grasp the concept of loving cold, snow, and the gloom and mess of winter, I try to respect it.

Over the past few days, my Saturday high went from 44 to 42 to 41 to now 39. Ridiculous...

Seriously? Hell of a way to describe weather enthusiasts who like something other than endless cloudy days, snowstorms, and frigid temperatures that coincide with a dead looking landscape.

Man, these last few posts. All true for me. 87storms. You sound like the Mid Atlantic version of me. A true warmanista. My work as a truck driver, hauling spring water, and spending 50% of my day outdoors makes me prefer temps of 50+ as a minimum. IronTy. That's about how I feel about winter. Christmas to Valentine's is about enough for me.

You are 100% correct.

Today's mid 30's feels SO much better than yesterday's mid 30's. Sunshine changes everything.

Just to add insult to injury, to go along with the stupid 32 degree temperature, now it's snowing up in Hazleton too.

38 in my backyard. 31 to 33 depending on station in Hazleton.

That's because I'm not there. If I was, it would be warm here and cold there...lol

I just hope we don't ride the boundary all summer long where we get a nice day or two followed by 2-3 muck days, then a nice one again, and so forth and so on. I'm delivering Hazleton today again, and it's cloudy, drizzly, and 36 outside. Nasty, depressing stuff.

Seems to be garden variety stuff here, but was kind of expected. Supposedly there were 10 strikes near my station, but I've not heard one rumble of thunder.

AccuWeather future radar indicates a potentially busy next couple hours here in Tamaqua. I just hope the hail stays away. Back in May 2011, we had a prolific hailstorm the ruined the Dodge Stratus I owned at the time. The pic is one of the hailstones I picked up in our backyard from that storm.

First drops here, but no noise, or even lightning detection, yet... Edited to add that future radar shows more interesting stuff coming after this first slug between 6:30 and 7:30.

Of interest (whether good for storms or not) is that we were partly to mostly sunny all afternoon. Now, the clouds that we've had around are pushing south, and we have a totally cloudless sky. Just wondering if that's going to fuel bigger and better storms, or if it's going to hinder our chances for severe. 68/51 currently.

It's been sunny up in Tamaqua for about 2 hours now. Up to 63 degrees so far as well.
