Blizzard of 93 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 More CTP thoughts on the Tuesday snow chance for some of us. Short wave trof is forecast to round the base of the western upper trof and trek across the srn border of the CONUS, pass along the GOMEX coast and lift into the middle atlantic region by the middle of next week/end of the long term period. A blocking high over New England should provide the cold air for potential wintry precip over part of central Pa, as this feature lifts through late Tuesday into early Wed. Continued to bump up POPs for midweek with this system with rain over the southeast, a mix of rain/snow over central PA and the best chance for all snow over the northwest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 5 hours ago, Festus said: For anyone interested, the 611 steam locomotive is running at Strasburg today. I believe it is the second largest operational steam locomotive in the country. It is certainly a site to behold. And who knows, maybe a guest appearance by our resident train expert Itstrainingtime. At the risk of boring everyone with my fanaticism of trains, I was able to participate in some of the 611 activities in Strasburg last fall. Really cool to be a part of. They are charging nearly double for the 45 minute excursions pulled by 611 compared to 475 this weekend. Speaking of 475...what an amazing job the freight shop did getting her back and running after the accident last week. Strasburg operations are exceptional in nearly every way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my wife wouldn't have waited until the last minute to get her new photo license, I might have gotten a chance to meet you. We planned on going down there after she was done at the DMV, but they had a computer crash, and we spent most of the day sitting there waiting for it to come back online.

The place was absolutely packed. Tough to find parking but what a sight. So I had on a drag racing shirt and this older dude wanders up and starts chatting about racing. He had on jeans and a denim shirt with 611 on it. I'm thinking this guy is hard core. Next thing I know, he was in the drivers seat! What a thrill it must be to operate something like that. And to keep the post relevant, what an absolutely wonderful weather day. Was there for 3 hours and never needed the coat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
