Central PA Summer 2026 Discussion/Obs Thread
Jns2183 replied to Voyager's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
Here are my updated heatwave rankings. It doesn't have the latest one in them simply because I need to wait till July passes to properly weight the temperature. I don't think most people know just how dry the summer of 1966 was, nor that our hotest summer by max temperature was 1949. The 1930's to 1940's were brutal here. Hot summers and crappy snow in the winter. Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk -

I tried to find the most defensible position in putting every summer day from 1895 to 2025 on a 2025 scale. I looked at various methods. Homogenization is not meant to answer that question and it provided less clarity the deeper I went. Future work is to try to get more a handle of what I saw there. This i feel is a strong position where I honestly put forth confidence positions. I look forward to feedback. For future work I think there's lots of potential in an area I have not seen developed at all and that is using the aerial surveys that were digitized by Penn State starting in the 1930s through the 1960s all across Pennsylvania where we could actually see the land use changes in real time in the placement for some of these long-term climate sites and the stations that they are correlated with maybe combining that with the metadata we can get a better idea of what was going on at different times and what adjustments are supported which ones are artifacts of piecewise correlations. I find this absolutely thrilling and exciting because it really has a bit explored much from the angle I'm looking at. Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk -

I wonder if we are going to get a single good cape verde Atlantic storm this year or if it will all be Gulf and homebrew Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk -

Thank you and thank everyone for letting me vent from my swamp castle the past few days. If anything I'm now interested in seeing what DIY solar, backup power solution I dump my weekends into. Because why do things easy when I can program a raspberry pi, a used portable solar generator and whatever gas generator I come across in a couple weeks as some people always sell after the appropriate amount of time. I also will be posting my final heatwave rankings, where I decided to get in the muck of temperature trends to have a defensible adjustment so that every year is as equivalent as possible to 2025. I think the results are absolutely amazing and will spark some fun conversations Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk -

I called PPL and all they could say was sometime between today and Friday. The app still says today, the latest I was able to even find in the app was Thursday. I'm torn when I should just bite the bullet and get a room at the Springhill Suites by me. I think I'll try to wait till 6pm. I did a 1.5 mile walk around our neighborhood and nobody has even seen a ppl vehicle yet in the entire neighborhood and I managed to talk to about 20 people Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk -

They still seem adamant it will be fixed by tomorrow night, but I'm also starting to see Thursday night pop up in some of the smaller outages on the map Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk -

That storm yesterday brought a tree down in my neighbor's yard that blew up the new fence we just put in along with deck. I've been dealing with insurance and chainsaws all morning. Work has power so I'm going to go work 12 hours just so I get some AC and fresh food Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk -

I am thankful for the 70's. I have all my windows upon and got my house temp down to low 70's. They haven't seen to make a dent in the power outages near me so I'm assuming it's pretty much a complete collapse. Sent from my SM-S731U using Tapatalk -
