I was thinking that 'could" have been our precip day 59 here I saw the NWS AFD talking about it but the GFS and CMC showed little to nothing and the Euro was more concentrated in N PA with some cells (no widespread rain anywhere near us). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just coming to post about the GFS through the next 8-10 days as it pertains to precip. Even next Monday is minimalized now. Sort of like having your spouse offer to take you out for burgers and then pulling into Dairy Queen and trying to sell you on some Brazier BS. A nothing burger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to look for the Brazier sign! LOL. Sometimes they have to turn away men who think Brassiere is spelled brazier. The Wayne Heights DQ sells hot food. Apparently these are phasing out the Brazier reference and you jsut have to check if your DQ has hot food or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We covered some plants the last two nights and will cover again tonight in case the RGEM keeps its hot streak going. Frost Watch all the way down to SC and GA.

canderson Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I remember going to a DQ here and ordering a steak finger basket. They looked at me like I was a martian. DQs are a staple in every small town in Texas. Good eats. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Dollar General has a whole team that looks for towns with no stop lights to put stores in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahantango#1 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I replaced my tulips last fall. I ordered from a bulb co. in Michigan. Now that the tulips are up for a few weeks now, they aren't very tall and look stunted. I wonder if the cold weather has played havoc with them. They are smaller than usual and some have the flower not opened on them. To me they look ki da pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 One thing I like about this group (that some do not). You never know what you will talk about in any given day. Who had Brazier Burgers on their list today? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDreamTraveler Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Reaching 90 might be doable on Friday. If so might be the earliest we've seen it hit 90 in a lot of places. Also speaking of record warmth it's going to be more extreme out west. A friend of mine in Wisconsin might beat their record high temp by 7-9 degrees 2 days in a row 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Today begins a stretch of well above normal temps that will last into the start of the weekend. Looks like we cool down to normal to a little below again by the middle of next week. We should see 80's by Thursday and Friday...but we should stay well below the record highs for those dates. We could use some rain as we are now at only 71% of normal through today. Records for today: High 84 (2017) / Low 23 (1909) / Precipitation 1.85" (1894) / Snow - today in 1894 marks the end of the greatest 2 day late season April snowstorms in the counties history. With today's 18.5" of snow along with the previous day's 9.7" we recorded a wet snow total of 28.2" in Western Chester County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 39 was my low in Harrisburg. 49 here in Texas. Flying back to PA today just in time for stupid potential record heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mount Joy Snowman Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I hit 32 this morning on the car thermo while going through farmland. Record highs for Thu/Fri at MDT are 85/89. Probably a smidge out of reach but maybe not. The best bet may be the max min record of 59 for Saturday. We shall see. Death Valley reclaims its throne with a national high temp of 101, which means summer must be on the way. Low of 10 near Grand Mesa, CO. Outside of the Pacific NW, pretty bone dry across the Lower 48 today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article continued that with a relatively calm week ahead across the country, we'll drop back below the record pace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WmsptWx Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 This may be me having a memory based entirely on attending a school that was built in the 1950s without air conditioning, but I remember dying in class in April with open windows achieving nothing. I've always operated under the belief that until the last several years when winter has transitioned to March through May that we would usually get our first 90°F day in April. I don't remember the last time I saw an 80°F day before mid-May. This feels like it's going to be a scorcher from the very go.

WmsptWx Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 MDT has never hit 90 prior to April 17th. So that leaves 13 days in April where I may remember baking lol. I should also clarify that during this time I lived in the ridge and valley Huntingdon so AOO was probably the local station of note, so I assume their first 90°F day took place a week or two later.
