When someone dies all bets are off even down to the Life Insurance company coming after someone. So it depends on the order we are under. I actually had not researched it that much but if it clearly says it is ones responsibility to self isolate for 14 days after leaving the state then a case may have merit. Even what I do in going to MD to grocery shop could be taken as an offense if I then go into a PA store and infect someone especially if they end up in the hospital. just f'd up times folks.....f'd up times. Thanks for the explanation Bubbles . ( I make jokes/jabs at people I like so take it in fun).....and now its your turn to get me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was listening to Wolf's 2PM call today and he seemed pretty angry about questions related to not opening but he did say they would continue looking next week at some more counties. My county is in the middle of some type of outbreak right now so not hopeful here but maybe Mr Ed's Elephant Museum and Candy store and @Cashtown_Coop can get open late May. I did look at the PA travel order and it is more specific to CT, NY and NJ so not sure Mike has anything to worry about. I was thinking someone said it applied to all travel out of PA. I know I would not fly right now for any reason outside an emergency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greensnow Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Binghamton NY 257 PM EDT Fri May 8 2020 .SYNOPSIS... Any rain quickly changes to snow this evening with accumulating snow in the higher elevations. Snow showers will continue into the weekend. Gusty northwest winds and snow squalls are likely Saturday. Sunday and Monday will be slightly warmer with rain and a few snow showers. High pressure expected by the middle of next week. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... Tricky forecast for this evening into tonight as an area of low pressure at the surface tracks across Central PA this afternoon and starts to strengthen near Long Island this evening. However, this system doesn`t really get its act together and start to rapidly intensify until it enters the Gulf of Maine early Saturday morning. Nonetheless, although we thankfully will not be looking at a huge amount of snowfall, any snow that accumulates this time of year is significant. The best frontogenical forcing will be across NE PA and into the Catskills this evening. Dynamic cooling will quickly cause any rain to change to snow and likely for higher elevations to just be straight up snow through the event. There will be a narrow window from about 6pm through 10 pm tonight where the higher elevations of the Poconos and Catskills could see a quick 2 to 4 inches of snow.

This was what I read. It does have that "or states with community spread" caveat though. https://www.health.pa.gov/topics/disease/coronavirus/Pages/Travelers.aspx Coronavirus and Travel in the United States Should I travel within the US? It is recommended that if you are returning to Pennsylvania from New York, New Jersey, or states with community spread of COVID-19, to stay at home for 14 days and self-monitor for symptoms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People you live with just "love" when you come home smelling like a deep fryer. I like to find rare stuff at thrift stores so walking through Mr. Ed's museum was tough to not start grabbing stuff.

Their salad bar was nothing compared to Shady Maple but for a fast food place in Carlisle (or Lancaster) it was quite a nice deal and meal.

They keep looking for reasons to keep areas supressed, and while yes there are areas of concern, MANY areas are turning the corner and should be able to start.

Bubbler86 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 I brought up Shady Maple and just read that the FDA is going to permanently recommend the closing of all salad bar based delivery of food. Wow. Had to say something as now I feel bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 Snow reports on the mPing obs down into Cambria County now, snow on the ground on the 511pa cam on top of the mountain above Clearfield (I-80 Exit 111). That temp drop in western PA is pretty wild to see. Already freezing in Dubois and Pittsburgh metro is in the mid 30s. Still rain here but the winds have kicked up pretty good so temps are likely to start falling soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black ice is a definite threat later this evening with the gusty winds and the rapid temp drops, especially in the central counties but everyones probably going under 32 tonight. It's looking to bottom out at 25ºF here, which is really going to hurt sensitive stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I truly feel bad for the folks out your way that used the Pandemic time to get a head start on their garden and yard stuff. Its not fair really. Even here we may lose a lot of stuff we have worked on but mid 20's is going to hammer stuff out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAG5035 Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 Annd we have flipped to snow here... that quick. It's light though, the downsloping just off the Laurels is evident on the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 Here's the downslope shadow on the radar, the dashed line is roughly where the Allegheny Front is. The mPing snow report in Altoona is mine. I'll probably eventually make a drive up to the top of the mountain this evening. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
