Stole the following pictures from Facebook In long exposure images, a massive mountain fire rages in mountains between York County and Cumberland County, near South Mountain Road, Sunday, March 14, 2021, in Franklin Township, not far from Dillsburg. Firefighters have been battling the fire for over six hours. .

In honor of our fire watch issued for tomorrow from 8am till 10pm does anyone know about the worst forest or wild fire that PA ever encountered? How about expanding the area to all states that border Pa? .

What were your wind readings overnight? I wish there was a website we could check your current wind and guests in real-time. I would turn that into my default tv setting .

Probably will be cloudy and Canderson will record a 50mph+ wind guest. At this point I’d be fascinated if an Isabel type storm slammed out this summer just to see his wind guests make a run at 100 .

Is there not a moderator? .

Look at all the red flag warnings to our south and east .

That looks like a powder keg about to blow .

March 5th, 2015. Capracotta, italy is due east of Rome in central Italy at 4215’. Recorded 100.8” of snow in 24 hours .

It was April 14th 1921, 28 miles west of Boulder Colorado, at Silver Lake, at an elevation of 11,250ft the snow started. 24 hours later they had received 75.8” of snow. An average of 3.15” per hour. I believe that is the 24 hour snowfall record in the United States. .

Monday December 27th. If there is a storm around then it will be in your name & honor .

I remember how shocked I was to find huge qpf disparity between capital city and kmdt within the last 20 years. The best I could do as spot check some of the anomalies outside summer thunderstorm ones and discovered they seemed to coalesce around events with precipitation with a strong sw to Ne and ssw to nne movement component with led me to decide that the most likely reason was a rain shadow from Reeser’s summit. Still is quite shocking to me the magnitude of it .

That data there is accepted as official and has been certified .

There can be wild temperature ranges mere miles apart when you are talking about radiational cooling and record lows. I tend to believe you both are correct .

March 1st record high 69 March 11th record high 69 .

There is a site that has all storms that generated a NESIS ranking going back 15 years I believe. It allows you to put in a location and a radius of say 100 miles and pull in all the snowfall amounts listed by spotter reports within that radius for each storm in an easy format for data collection. I’m thinking of doing it centered around kmdt to build a good data set of snowfall distributions and since each report has a long/lat I can built grids of say 10mi^2 or smaller to create a density map of accumulations in its most basic form. Depending on how deep I go with Python will determine what all I can do but I should be able to find some neat microclimate trends and hard data to support some of our theories here. .

There’s a couple places. I think I actually have records for mdt for each hour going back 50 years .

It’s quite loud outside. I remember when I think Isabel came through. That night sounded like a constant jet engine. I went to my parents and made everyone sleep in the basement. About 6 am an 80 foot tree feel, barely missing the house, neighbors house and 3 cars had minor damage. It basically fell perfectly to avoid horrible outcomes. From that day forward my parents and siblings listened to me without question when it came to weather .

Looks like we are getting 1” of rain in the next 24 hours .

3 hours 1/2mi visibility SN = T .

.

Talk about a forum special. I can already see in my mind my neighbors faces upon waking to snow tomorrow .

I miss those June days where a back door cold front stalls out just west of us and we have 60 and fog and drizzle for days where seven springs makes runs at 90 and driving the turnpike there is a 20 degree temp difference within 3 miles of each other .

I’m sure you’re aware by taunting the winter gods what weather you will be experiencing .
