Indeed...

But...it's hard to get excited about the summer like weather when the forecast high for Saturday drops all the way down to 58 with mid 40's lows again.

We'll take it one day at a time.

Yesterday's Tamaqua high was 94 degrees.

A well earned high at that!

I got stuck doing Hazleton loads yesterday. That godforsaken place has a whole different climate from even Tamaqua. Save for a brief period of sunshine, it was mostly overcast and windy up there, and I had to wear my hoodie almost all day. I checked the local stations and it didn't get above 60 the whole time I was up there.

The Hazleton climate is the main reason why I hate delivering to that customer.

 

Sounds like Hazelton will give you depression. I was up to Hazelton a few times to attend a class, seminar (for my employer) at The Top of the 80's about 10 years ago. Yes it's a different world up ther.

Yesterday the afternoon was really nice to be out. My high was 73

Nasty day here in Vancouver. Fairly heavy rain, 52 degrees and 30-40 mph winds. 

Does it remind you of the weather that you left a few days ago?

Was mowing for 2hrs. On the riding mower this afternoon. I got cold out there. It felt like I was mowing in November with a temp of 53. Then got a surprise rain shower which put down .02 rain. Have to finish mowing tomorrow since the grass got all wet.

My wifes family is 2 generation farming family (Pine View Dairy for those that know the area). 

They told me many moons ago that safe bet was memorial day for planting.  I think because of the many warm springs that've been sprinkled in, it has moved up the planting timeframe, but to the peril of the planter.  Spring hasnt changed that much, that its worth the gamble imo.  I see sweet corn already 4-6" tall near my house, but thats much smaller scale gamble than a few hundred acres of regular corn.  Fruit folks, totally diff ballgame (and not a good one this year).  

Hope yall are doing well.

Yea I was talking about field corn and soybean planting. As far as planting my garden. I planted my potatoes about 2 weeks ago. There not up yet. Just planted stringbeans and peas e days ago. I should have some sweet corn planted by now, but that ground is too cold yet. And now just had .88 rain last night. And my garden is in the bottom land next to a creek. Last night during the thunderstorm my garden was basically underwater. If it would be a sunny day today and temps in the 70's I could get in the garden later today. But with a completely overcast sky and cool temps that won't be the case today. Hopefully it warms up soon and stays.

Another cloud filled sky day, temp 51. another dismal day. Talked to someone that helps farmers out planting an harvesting crops. He said planting is running behind schedule with this cold May.

My rain rate was 2.03in. hr. during the thunderstorm last night. It's been awhile since I think last July that my rain rate was that high.

Good thunderstorm we had here. Heavy rain some wind and pea size hail. Continuous thunder and lightning. And .87 rain.

Yes, it's broad but I swear I see more rotation in lines consistently than any other spot right in this area where the mountains form a V that I wonder if its terrain enhanced

37 low in Marysville 

It gets any colder you'll be posting snow maps.

31.6 this morning with frost and ice on the vehicles. This upcoming warmup can't get here soon enough. Covering up plants to protect them from frost is starting to get old.
