Yeah, barely touched my oil tank level so far and received only a $90 electric bill yesterday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itstrainingtime Posted October 25 Author Share Posted October 25 If someone can find a definitive answer I'd appreciate it - I've been searching climo records trying to determine what is the longest streak of days without rainfall in Lancaster. I found one website that said it's 29 days but I don't know that i trust the source. Having said that...this is starting to feel unprecedented: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Lanco option that goes back farther. Note that 2024 is only at 17 days right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shut ours totally off two days before we went to PEI, so September 21, and haven't touched it since. Our gas bill this month was $26 (gas dryer and range) Our electrical bill this month was $73. Our house is 1970 sq foot so quite good! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those wondering, Harrisburg's record is 35 consecutive days, which was also primarily an October phenomenon, with a date ending 10/27/47. A couple of others tied at 28 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, it's mostly southeast of the big river that has shown the change. Everywhere else appears to be the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheClimateChanger Posted October 25 Share Posted October 25 Election Day continuing to look mostly benign. In fact, the GFS suggests that a fair amount of the Commonwealth may see no rain through Election Day, with generally light totals elsewhere. Some much needed rains showing up in the center of the country, however, with more than 2 inches in a swath from West Texas to Iowa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming we're dry until this time next week...we'd potentially be just a few days away from unchartered territory. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have to schlep across the city to play at the Steelers home. Pitt wants to build on-campus but space is a huge issue. The basketball arena was built on the former site of old Pitt Stadium.

On one of our annual weekend trips to see the Steelers years ago...I think it was 2012? We went to the Pitt-Louisville game on Saturday before the Steelers game on Sunday. Talk about a stark contrast in atmosphere...my son and I were in the upper level pretty much by ourselves. I think I remember they announced somewhere around 40,000 but it seemed like far fewer. Even at 40,000 that was over 25,000 short of capacity. Not a great gameday experience. Pitt really would benefit greatly from having a true home field onsite.

Yeah, I don't think they would stand much of a chance against THE Pennsylvania State University. But at least it would present a more interesting "story" than in years past.
