There is still all of January, February and March.

A fascinating thread.

Well now, this thread certainly has come to life.

Or West Chester?

Not a bad idea.

Really?

Oh I remember, and yes I was being sarcastic. LOL

Just merge all of them!

He is very passionate about snow totals!

I meant that the page itself is new/updated...a new web address.

You guys are really digging deep into this!

Yes I know, and as I said I think we can do without the name calling.

Good that you contacted NCEI. Hopefully they will be in touch with you on what they decide to do.

I first thought about the gradient that occurs from east to west across Chester County, as it can be significant. Have you contacted NCEI (formally NCDC) regarding this? Also, are there any available reports closer to Coatesville to better understand if those values are completely off the rails or not? As ChesoWX stated above, that location was a long standing COOP station. It would be interesting to see what the synoptic setup was during those dates, as I would imagine at least some included intense banding.

This heat sucks! Dew points are awful.

What a first post you have there. LOL.

Okay, thanks. Lots of interesting information in his posts.

You seem to know how NWS Mount Holly operates, which you are just making assumptions. We are certainly aware of the USGS gauges as they are a partner of the NWS. The two gauges on the Little Lehigh are not forecast points, meaning there are no actual forecasts issued for them. Not sure what else to tell you, other than voicing your concerns directly to NWS Mount Holly via email or a phone call instead of ranting about it here on a weather board. Can you pass along regarding what happened up there last Thursday-Friday? Feel free to PM me.

Care to explain?

Ummm, okay. Some of your post is just simply wrong, we care about our entire forecast area. Perhaps reports of flooding were not received at the office. Not to say that this as an excuse (I was not working Friday, so not sure what happened), but our KDIX radar was taken offline starting last Friday for scheduled work on the dome.

The platform we use to log and issue reports went down for awhile today. Bad timing!

I am still there. Getting closer to 20 years now.
