Bubbler86 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Screw the cold, I'm flying to Houston Wednesday for mid 70s. I am going to be up there (S Central PA) this Thursday and would not be surprised to see some bank therm's showing 70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieOber Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I am going to be up there (S Central PA) this Thursday and would not be surprised to see some bank therm's showing 70. Yeah, no doubt. We should even get into the 60s - no CAD to screw us like last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I know this really isn't Central PA per say but as we await the heavy heavy torching poised to take over in a couple days check out what has been happening in the Arctic the last several weeks.

CoraopolisWx Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I know this really isn't Central PA per say but as we await the heavy heavy torching poised to take over in a couple days check out what has been happening in the Arctic the last several weeks. It could have an effect mid to late month. One last cold plunge building in the arctic, could interact with a strong, high energy storm that we've seen the past two weeks. Remember two Friday nights ago, limited moisture, but abundant energy helped spark those intense snow bands. So I guess it's worth keeping somewhat of an eye on.

Part of me really is pulling for a big April snow just because after the crappy winter and the October snow, it would be just plain ridiculous.

Porsche Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Anyone notice any bright streaks in the sky in Lancaster, I'm hearing from several people they saw a bright flash and reddish hue, and some have seen a greenish hue. I haven't seen anything my self though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSTWX Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Said on the news there was thundersnow in Johnstown. Looking at cams, there seems to be rough travel on Chickaree Mountain and around the Galleria in Johnstown. Had some thunder at my place around 5pm. We ended up with 3.5" last night. Did a little late season sledding with my son. Good times in an otherwise boring winter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Winter arrives just in time for baseball/softball season! Wednesday and Thursday look to be AWESOME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Yeah, Winter arrives just in time for baseball/softball season! I hope not, but on a side note, one of my friends on FB posted this graphic showing a forecast for the JAS period being cooler than normal. That would just suck if something like that were to verify.

JamieOber Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Yeah, Winter arrives just in time for baseball/softball season! Wednesday and Thursday look to be AWESOME. I didn't experience snow and baseball/softball until I moved to Pittsburgh and played here. Only time I'll wear a batting glove, lol. I hope not, but on a side note, one of my friends on FB posted this graphic showing a forecast for the JAS period being cooler than normal. That would just suck if something like that were to verify. Crap.....I can already see the fungus diseases growing in my garden. That also looks like a wet pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hckyplayer8 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 As much as I love cold and snow....as I am getting older I come to realize I love Spring 60's and sun too. Scares me a bit actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualOfTheTrout Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I didn't experience snow and baseball/softball until I moved to Pittsburgh and played here. Only time I'll wear a batting glove, lol. Crap.....I can already see the fungus diseases growing in my garden. That also looks like a wet pattern. The first thing that came to my mind was "Oh great, another tomato blight year". Although, a slightly cooler than average summer would be fine with me as I tend to not do well in heat and humidity, plus, since we all saved some money on winter heating bills, why not save some more on summer cooling! As much as I love cold and snow....as I am getting older I come to realize I love Spring 60's and sun too. Scares me a bit actually. I agree with this. I do find myself looking forward to warmer days as I age but I still prefer shorter days and cold weather. Is there such a thing as opposite seasonal affective disorder?

If you guys knew how obsessively I track summer showers/average thunderstorms on radar during dry periods, you'd think.....well, you'd think I was waywayway into gardening. I am talking more intensively than snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Hello, spring! Funny, we're flying to Houston tonight for a wedding, returning Sunday. Go figure it doesn't rain for a year in Texas, yet the four days we'll be there it's going to rain every single day. The wedding's outside Saturday too. Or should I say, was scheduled to be outside.

hckyplayer8 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 So I called the fire house about what I believed was a rapidly spreading wildfire...and it turned out to be a controlled burn. So if you are driving up I81 to Lickdale, yes the mountain is on fire and yes it is under control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just flurries, nothing to really sneeze at. Trace, about it. Might as well enjoy this, because long range says possible 70-80F in about 12 days!

PottercountyWXobserver Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Just as I said we have only had flurries, some decent snow showers have rolled through and I have a .3" on the ground. Wonder how much I will be able to pick up tonight, maybe 1" if I'm lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
