March 8, 1926: "Those who claim to know, say the view obtained from this tower is one of the best in the state. For an unbroken expanse of wooded landscape, this view is unsurpassed. From Snow Shoe towards the southwest to the Bald Eagle mountain below Jersey Shore, one can scarcely find an open field. The tower takes its name from a large coffin-shaped rock in the vicinity of the tower. It overlooks the Tangascootic creek and the Scootuc country, and the scene of extensive coal and clay operations. Evidence of these operations are still visible on the ground. The tower is best reached from Renovo by taking the mountain road, which leaves the township road just west of Pete's run, and continuing on to the forks of the Beech Creek and Snow Shoe roads. At this point signs will direct one to the tower, which can be reached by auto. This sixty-foot tower was built in 1921 and stands at a ground elevation of 2,325 feet, according to the United States geological survey. It the tourist wishes to avoid a descent to the streams north of south of the tower, he had better bring his drinking water with him." (Lock Haven Express) June 1, 1939: The tower at Coffin Rocks has been raised in height from sixty feet to eighty-six feet. (The Wellsboro Agitator) 1985: Lookout destroyed in a tornado. 1987: A 93-foot Aermotor steel tower erected, includes wrap around catwalk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 The HRRR raises the ante on this coming rain event being less than initially forecast for the LSV. There is almost no rain at all tomorrow and decent amounts are now pinned on the front slowing down/almost stalling as it nears the area on Thursday. 3K looks fairly similar at least for tomorrow.

I have the unofficial popularity tally for summer showing the following ranks. 1) Pillow, 2) Palouse, 3: Paw Paw, 4) Todd, PA. I feel like I am fogetting one or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffin Rock shouldn't count IMO since it's not a place - it's in Renovo. It's just the local name of a part of the mountain I think. You can see the weather radar on Google Maps. https://www.google.com/maps/uv?pb=!1s0x89ce87f4692cbf39:0xab2b90263fb6df31!3m1!7e115!4shttps://lh5.googleusercontent.com/p/AF1QipMbWi3XcRPt8odGpCu77jdKXiEo7KB2RUh_0fU%3Dw650-h218-n-k-no!5scoffin+rock+pa+-+Google+Search!15zQ2dJZ0FRPT0&imagekey=!1e10!2sAF1QipMbWi3XcRPt8odGpCu77jdKXiEo7KB2RUh_0fU&hl=en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that the rock(s) looks like Coffin's vs. making people go into Coffins does take some shine off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish pivotal weather was as "smooth" to look at as TT. Makes me shy away from looking at Upper Level stuff that is only available on pivotal.
