Central PA Winter 2024/2025

Recommended Posts

With yesterday's 14th minor (as most of them have) winter event we are now at 80% of our normal snowfall through yesterday and only about 5 inches below normal. Today will again remain below freezing before we rise to near normal for the weekend and above normal for much of next week. Before we turn back to below normal temperatures to close out February and start March. The next chance of any precipitation looks to be toward Tuesday evening.

Interesting that you say that about the group being sad - I don't know why but today feels different. While there are still weeks of opportunity left to enjoy wintry weather, the realization really hit me this morning that we're turning a corner towards spring. (also interesting that I felt this at a time it was in the teens) The posts are far fewer today which sort of matches the transition we often see as winter starts to slowly fade away. 

This is not me punting. Just sharing that today feels different. 

Circling back to this post from yesterday - I'm not ready to let go of winter just yet.

Although...my forecast for next week includes at least 4 days with highs at or above 50. Can't say I'm not looking forward to that.

GFS is uninspiring through it's entire run this morning. Big east coast low to close out the first week of March that slips east of us but would have likely been a rainer anyway. 

There is no one talking about LR threats in the MA sub either. I think partly because a lot of people are jaded by this week's epic miss and well...there just isn't much looking forward to see.

After today, Accuweather doesn't have a single day below freezing for me from here on out. Temps into 40s and 50s most of March and 60s to start April.

When the wind is not blowing, I think I can I hear that Willie Nelson song starting to play off in the distance.

Clocks jump forward in a week. To me that's the sign to stop hunting for snow.
