Bubbler86 Posted March 10, 2022 Author Share Posted March 10, 2022 Rgem drops 1-2" of rain in the LSV BEFORE any snow. This is one wet system. A flooder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mt. Nebo and Martic Township, at their higher elevations, were even snowier. That area is a VERY unique microclimate that many people don't know about. Good stuff. Solanco school district is huge with a varied climate. I recall many times where they'd have delays and no other districts would. They just cover such a vast swath of hilly terrain. You are right most don't realize what it can be like down there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are exactly right - I was a student at Marticville back in the 1970s. (gulp) I remember one winter when we got an early dismissal at the middle school - by the time the busses pulled out of the lots, there was probably close to 6" on the ground and it was snowing like crazy. I was pumped! My bus headed NW towards the outskirts of Millersville and by the time I got home...there was less than 1" on the ground. I was never more ready to go back to school that day. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a blue mtn and points N and W dealeo again. State College is sittin pretty as per most maps.

GrandmasterB Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Hard to believe we just toss the Euro, but the RGEM snow map looks much more realistic and the Euro has not been great around here this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah no doubt the "river hills" would hold the cold a bit better. As you know, my wife went to PM and elementary in Conestoga. When i road raced bicycles for Rich Ruoff (the Chameleon club), we hosted a race there. "the Tour of Mt. Nebo". What a gut wrenching road race let me tell ya. Arguably one of the hardest road race coursed I've ever seen (locally mind you). I derailed a chain on one one of the early climbs and was off the back, so I dropped out. 50 miles of climbs...lets just say I was pissed, but only mildly so. I was a sprinter, not a climber.

Yes, indeed. It's really fascinating how it works. The areas I mentioned are actually in Penn Manor School District. The district is huge in area and the southern end from where I was outside of West Willow to Mt. Nebo had a more extreme climate than other areas of the county. More snow, wind, and INTENSE thunderstorms. Those storms would form over southern York county and roll along the hills into S. Lancaster county. The local news stations always would broadbrush "lowest snow totals" there because it was "south", which didn't always work out. I remember several times going from Millersville down to the Conestoga River on Rte. 741 with nothing, and then coming up the hill to the New Danville Turkey Hill and then all of a sudden snowcover. Like I said, the further south towards Mt. Nebo and in higher elevation, it was even more extreme. I always wanted to live down there. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived on the hill right above Fisher's Steel and Pequea Elementary School. I could see Marticville Middle School miles and miles away from my house. Oh, the view!
