EasternUSWX Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 Same to you Mike! We are soooo young, it doesn't make any sense. Life plain blows sometimes. Got that right. I got a disorder called ALPS it is an autoimmune disorder. Causes my platelets to get attacked by my own body. Was in hospital tons of times for that. Now I have to take meds everyday. Also had 3 collapsed lungs. I a only 22 as well. It sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PottercountyWXobserver Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Ok test results are in! They aren't bad, but they aren't good either. I have Gastritis and a hint of Gastroparesis, an Ulcer, and inflammed gallbladder. All these can be controled by medicine thank goodness, but painful none the less. No cancer or anything serious , but I have to be carefull with the Ulcer in the future because doc says can turn cancerous later in life. Basically means my digestive track is fn stupid and can't do its job right. Anyways back to the weather side, I had some surprise snow this morning! wasn't much but was enough to raise my hopes up. The Ulcer is probably from the Winter of 2011-2012! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Jamie, it means alot, normally I don't mention my private health to anyone. Just wanted to make sure you guys were aware, in case I wouldn't post anymore. The Ulcer and Gallbladder pain is some wicked pain. I wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieOber Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Huh....any comments on this?: LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/... A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE AT THE SFC AND ALOFT WILL BUILD OVER THE REGION FRIDAY NIGHT WITH GRADUAL CLEARING...BUT MIN TEMPERATURES A FEW TO SEVERAL DEG F ABOVE NORMAL. TWO...FAST MOVING SHORTWAVES EMBEDDED IN THE NORTHERN STREAM WILL BRING A FEW BOUTS OF SEASONABLY COLD WEATHER AND MAINLY MOUNTAIN SNOW SHOWERS SATURDAY...AND AGAIN SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT. BOTH WEATHER FEATURES /AND THE FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH THEIR THERMALLY INDIRECT JET LEFT EXIT REGIONS/ WILL BE CAPABLE OF BRINGING LIGHT SNOWFALLS OF 1-2 INCHES ACROSS THE NW HALF OF THE STATE. THE SECOND SHORTWAVE LATE IN THE WEEKEND WILL BE RELATIVELY STRONGER WITH NOTABLY COLDER MID LEVEL TEMPS /-22C AT 700 MB AT 00Z MONDAY/ AND WILL LIKELY SPREAD SNOW SHOWERS INTO THE CENTRAL MTNS AND SUSQ VALLEY. AFTER THE EXIT OF THE SHORTWAVE EARLY IN THE WEEK WITH A SHOT OF COLD AIR AND SCATTERED UPSLOPE/LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS...A BLEND OF U.S/EURO GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT THE UPPER FLOW ACROSS AT LEAST THE ERN HALF OF THE U.S. WILL BECOME HIGHLY ZONAL WITH TEMPERATURES CLIMBING TO 7-10F ABOVE NORMAL TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY WITH MAINLY DRY CONDITIONS. PERIODS OF WARM ADVECTION CLOUDS WILL AFFECT THE NRN 1/3 OF THE STATE AT TIMES NEXT WEEK...BUT PRECIP CHCS WILL BE QUITE MINIMAL UNTIL A SHORT WAVE AMPLIFIES ACROSS THE MID MISS VALLEY WEDNESDAY...AND POSSIBLY SPINS UP A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE ALONG EITHER THE CAROLINA...OR DELMARVA COAST. TEMPS WILL COOL FOR THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY NEXT WEEK WITH A CHANCE OF SOME RAIN OR MIXED PRECIP IN THE SE PART OF THE STATE...AND MIXED PRECIP OR SNOW ACROSS THE NW HALF OF THE COMMONWEALTH.

Voyager Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 30.3°, have had light freezing rain all day. Potter, good to hear you're doing okay, man. Heard that the higher elevations from McAdoo to Hazleton and along I-81 were pretty icy. My neighbor said that in the McAdoo area along PA-309, a lot of trees are bent and hanging low. Sounds like they had a pretty good ice accretion up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PottercountyWXobserver Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 06Z GFS suggest long duration Mix/ice threat north of I-80 then eventually rain at the end. It is still trending, but more than likely there will be some type of a decent threat next Thursday-Friday.

JamieOber Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 You know the Winter has been bad when we have to wait an entire week for a potential storm. Well, it's been bad, but that isn't a good indicator of a bad one. Even the good ones have had no-potential periods. At least it's not like the last several days, when there was nothing for 15 days. Hopefully we all can get in on the action with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawatch Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Have been watching JoePa news coverage. Getting tried of Tom Clark on WNEP 16 saying if this rain would have been snow we would have 7". The other day it was 5" I'm thinking yeah right...his forecasts never call for that much snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
