Everyone beats Thomasville now since they have been down for weeks. I just noticed LNS coming in with a 46 8AM Ob! That is pretty chilly. Ob says Fog.

Dating myself here, but as a kid who was glued to his NOAA weather radio in the 1970s, I remember the temperature roundups each hour. I still hear Russ Jordan saying "currently, it's 12 in Harrisburg, Lancaster is 7, and in York...it's -2". I got a kick out of that as a kid and it's still cool today. Literally. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LNS sits in a bit of a valley like THV. (in case you weren't aware) I do remember Harrisburg always being the warmest or second warmest city in the state even when I lived in Philly. Of course the 'Burg is cooler in certain situations but during heat waves and such it could be 96 in Philly and LNS and the 'Burg is punching 100. I think Philly officially holds the highest average yearly temp though they have plenty of HIA there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot in Central PA though. Did not move to Philly until my 20's. Herb was still there when I moved to Philly but he retired not long after my move. I remember John Bolaris. Philly ran him out on a rail after a bad storm prediction. In Philly you either win or move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly because of that prediction (which is a shame, I thought in general he was really good) but he also had a "vibe" around town that didn't sit well with a lot of people.

Kyw...Newsradio....1060.....with a background jingle. Then some typing noises, the temp downtown as well as the time. At that point and on the 15 min, if a storm was near, you would get a live update from the Accuweather met on call. Interesting history of that station. It started in Chicago and moved to Philly. That is pretty unique. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personal life Bolaris has one daughter, Reina, who he had with Tiffany McElroy, a former reporter. Bolaris is known in the Philadelphia media for being a "ladies man." He has been in relationships with Lauren Hart, Jane Robelot and Nicole Miller.[20] In 2010, while in Miami, Bolaris was drugged and charged for $43,000 on his American Express card. Bolaris contacted the FBI, who connected Bolaris' story to a crime ring run by a bar owner. 17 arrests were made in connection with the crime ring. The story was the subject of investigations on ABC’s 20/20 and American Greed.[21][22] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
