Eskimo Joe Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Millersville University - Virtual Seminar Series **TODAY @ 1:00pm Eastern Time** Title: Integrating EM and Meteorology Background: Friday, April 15th at 1 PM EDT the CDRE's final Virtual Seminar of Spring 2016 semester. Chris Walsh, the former state meteorologist of Georgia, will be speaking about the integration of emergency management and meteorology. The United Nations Office of Disaster Risk Reduction released a report last fall stating 90% of the major disasters between 1995 and 2015 were weather-related. The relationships between EMs and meteorologists must strengthen in order to reduce the impacts of hazardous weather and climate change.

PennMan Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Lol, if not for the historic, record breaking blizzard this winter was garbage for the LSV!!!!!

heavy_wx Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Not sure if we hit 80F today or not, but it was gorgeous nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superstorm Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Depends where you were...my parents in Lebanon County had >45" of snow and 3 warning level events. I saw two storms of 8" or more and one of them was 28" here in LSV. There have been much worse (for snow lovers) winters even if you took out the Blizzard.

NortheastPAWx Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Houston got more precip yesterday (9.92") than AVP has for 2016 so far (9.71"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Had a 100% chance of rain last night through today at 6 pm. Not a drop. Oops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Hey now...I got whopping 0.01" overnight. Now they can drop the red flag warnings and lift the burn bans...woohoo!!! Seriously though. I don't know if they got it under control, but I drove through the smoke field from the Monroe County fire all the way up on I-84 heading from Scranton to Port Jervis. We really needed at least 0.25" (or more) to help out with the dry, tinderbox conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NortheastPAWx Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 AVP recorded 0.1" overnight to snap 10 days without measurable rain. Always just enough to snap a run but still keeping things miserable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NortheastPAWx Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Looks like we're on pace for our first below normal temperature month since last March. It has been 12 consecutive months above normal since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Absolutely perfect weather the past 2 weeks. Loving it! (we could use some rain, though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sauss06 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Whats the chance of Severe weather today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Whats the chance of Severe weather today? Minimal. Weak mid level lapse rates and leftover clouds from last night give us a meager chance. Wouldn't be surprised if the SLGT was removed at the midday update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Got caught in that storm walking home. Wind nearly blew me into the river. I'm also soaked to the bone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Question...does hail automatically make a storm severe? We had an impressive storm here, lots of wind, (like strong) near zero visibility rain, and small hail at the onset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had an impressive storm here, lots of wind, (like strong) near zero visibility rain, and small hail at the onset. The hail must be 1" in diameter (quarter sized) or greater.

heavy_wx Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Classic garbage easterly upslope flow day today. At least we have pretty much reached leaf-out for most trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Classic garbage easterly upslope flow day today. At least we have pretty much reached leaf-out for most trees. Ironically we are no where near leaf out yet here in Tamaqua. Maples seem to be the farthest along but the oaks are just dragging their heels this spring. Up in the higher elevations of Hazleton and along the I-81 ridge top, as well as over on I-84 in the Poconos, if it weren't for (somewhat) green grass, you'd think it was February. In those locations, forested areas are still about 80-90 percent barren of leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Any thoughts on severe threat Sunday? Flying back from Dallas to BWI Sunday night. Funny enough we've been in three tornado warnings tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voyager Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Why can't THIS coastal storm do what they normally do in the winter when it snows? Slide south and east and miss the area... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
