I am still working and several co-workers are saying they are doing their Easter Plans regardless of social distancing. People are tired of being separate. I suspect some level of distancing will be going into next year just a matter of what level. Your tone suggests you may have misinterpreted my initial post today. I am not at all a Trump fan but my post was more pointing out the confusion and back and forth nature of the information. Nothing wrong with looking in the future. I agree it cannot stay like this.

I think a strong case can be made that either many in S Central PA have had the virus and did not notice or its not prevalent here yet. Need the tests to tell which way. The way it took over NY suggests something is different in S Central PA right now. I know hundreds of people and not one has even taken a test much less been in a situation where they needed to go to a hospital. I truly think no one knows enough to make definitive opinion on whether it will not a false alarm here or the bad has not even started yet.

Its not a problem but a large portion of people I know think we are closed down for May and maybe even June....heading into a great depression level event. Some states have already cancelled school until next fall. So definitely some major differences of opinion and the waves seems to go back and forth each week. Last week most of those pressers were doom and gloom. Now I am hearing people talking about getting together for Easter so frame of mind seems to go up and down like a Yo-Yo.

Below freezing for some this weekend. On the Virus talk seems the economists and optimism are ruling the day right now. It would not surprise me to see Trump start back on his "we need to open up now" rants.

They have to get the antibody test going as no vaccine means we would literally run into 2021 with this issue until we can determine who has had it and can move about more freely. This is all assuming immunity after your body deals with it the first time. The case can be made that some people may try to contract this on purpose so they can be among the earlier people who "go back to work" in the summer.

That is my take on it. Though best to follow for the sake of others and yourself.

It really is hard to find any difference between it and what other counties were under before. Maybe some business concerns...but you can still go to a park, get take out, etc...

Speaking of thunderstorms is anyone familiar enough with these tents all over the area, in NYC and around here, going up due to Covid and their ability to withstand a storm with strong downdrafts and high winds? When I see those things the first thing I think is that I would not want to be in one when a storm hits.

We do chilly and damp well around here.

Looks like the clouds moved in over your way as well. We dropped form 64 to 58 in a matter of 45 min after the cloud cover rolled in.

Looks like Adams and York County will be the "winners" today. Several readings in the 70's. Even @Cashtown_Coop is 66 over there in the North Pole of the LSV.

GFS has a a cold front pressing in Easter but temps are a bit marginal.

It does feel nice out with even with the wind...but getting so rare to see a temp bust low. I guess it may have for some east of the mountains yesterday.

Did not even make it to lunch and already above our forecast highs for the day. Saw York is at theirs already as well. Modeled temps continue to be off quite a bit.

You are a coldinista with temps. LOL. Anything under 60 is chilly if the wind is blowing. We did walk about two miles ourselves this afternoon so after coming into the weekend with a terrible weather forecast it did not turn out too bad. We ended up with only .65" of rain all together. Those heavy bands many here got yesterday went north of me.

I am actually glad we broke out in sun here. Grass is mowed, temps are great and the upcoming week looks quite chilly for April standards so needed a nice day like this. Feel bad for the folks east of me.

The LSV fog/cloud trap.

The radar looks pitiful. It's 71 here now and cannot see any clouds to the west. Did see the zone forecast just south of me says snow Wed AM!

I see a Wunderground report of 49 on the Adams/Franklin County line. We have spiked to 68 so it looks likely to make it. Low 80's in Western PA right now. That same phenomenon I reported a few months ago, where going about a thousand feet/one mile up into Cascade area turns into dense fog, is happening again. Its pretty cool. Clouds/fog hold at the top at the ridge then dissipate once you start down the west side.

We are at 66 here. Sun has been out for about 2 hours. Not sure if we make it or not. Add the Sat Pic. Punch of dry air coming up west of the South Mountain Range. Its yard mowing time!

Anyone hitting 70 today? If we get sun it will be a slam dunk here but the sun part is in question.

I was going to say aren't highs around 20 just stories our grandparents tell?

I am glad since it is not snow. Looks like Northeastern part of PA will be in steady rain a lot longer. Showers for us. I wish the sun would come out. Dreary weekends are especially depressing now.

Looks like the LSV may be "not as rainy" for the afternoon...a chance for a walk or drive or something to get out.

A mean April Fools joke for Philly.
