I walked from the Nittany Lion Inn to my office in the Rider Building, my ears hurt. Although I am almost getting used to it. The 40s will be a decent break.

canderson Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 This snow will be so fluffy it'll be fun to play in. Also I was just outside protesting for a few hours - guys it's chilly out, not sure if you were aware. (The river's ice is now across the entire width here in HBG. Saturday I'll get some pictures when it's a bit more firm). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got that inch or so Monday then a bit last night. It's so cold it remained, but I think it actually sublimated some, lol, instead of melted. Overall though we've had snow on the ground much more than not since Dec 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djr5001 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Yesterday's MDT recorded temperatures of min - 11 and max - 21 put the day's average temp of 16 as 14 degrees below normal. This day alone brought the monthy average down from 4.0 degrees above normal to 3.3 degrees above normal. Crazy that early in the month we were looking at how much above normal we would jump with the warmup and now we could fall very close to normal by the end of the weekend. It was 8 at the house yesterday morning so I think MDT has been running slightly warmer the past few mornings compared to the area around here. (Interesting stat of the day: In the last 30 years Harrisburg has seen a daily snowfall total of >=6" in January only 8 times. 2011, 2000, twice in 1996, twice in 1994, and twice in 1987) (Second interesting stat of the day: In the last 8 years, Harrisburg has recorded a daily high temperature less than 20 degrees only once - January 16, 2009 had a high of 15. Tuesday's high of 24 was recorded just after midnight and yesterday it briefly hit 21.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if that is due to big crushing airmasses in January? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
