Itstrainingtime

2nd severe threat of the very young season already:

I admit that yesterday was exceptionally nice to be outdoors. And it was obvious judging by the throngs of people on local trails that many, many people were feeling the same way. Having said that, I'm sorry but I found nothing brutal about this winter. I enjoyed every single bitterly cold day we had and I won't apologize for it.

AC will be humming this afternoon. Got up to 71 in the house yesterday and I'm not down with that nonsense again today.

Well there's at least 2 that I've never once seen "waffle" - doesn't mean they're right but I think you're being a little too dismissive just because they don't fit your narrative.

If winter isn't over, the fat lady's warmup is now ramping up a few octaves. Discouraging to see good mets in the New England forum waving the white flag now.

For sure. Just not when you specifically tell us to get our shovels ready.

I mean this in both a fun and respectful way - you say this at least a couple of times every year. I'm pretty sure that I've never had to shovel a single time after you've said that.

Total rainfall here was 0.00". Sigh. Today; however is a gem! Temp is already 67.2!

Just had the first TOR warning issued. Several thunderstorm warnings also out currently.

Heading there as well. To the zoo.

Endless drought talk? What? I haven't said a word in months. Literally.

Not a good look but fits the pattern and seasonal trend. Can already see how the LSV gets jumped on that map. Late developing Miller B.

I am. It's been an ongoing concern for months. That's kind of a strange comment to make when some areas of the LSV are already in a moderate to severe drought.

Thanks for sharing. I'm well below normal as well. I know that many here only care what MDT has recorded as their basis for for determining snowfall, but I'm WELL below what MDT has recorded this winter and quite frankly...to me, that's what matters.

.63" of rain fell yesterday, .94" for the week. Air this morning is noticeably (to me) chillier than it was yesterday. I thought it felt humid, this morning it feels raw. Temp is 39 currently.

Thunderstorm in progress here. Cats aren't happy.

I hope that doesn't translate for up here.

Amazing how much better you good folks did over your way compared to just to your west in Lancaster county. I'm sitting at 22.3" of snow/sleet for the season.

You drubbed me! Just .03" since midnight at home when I left this morning.

While each advertised warmup has been muted, the seasons are changing despite that fact. This is living proof.

I was thinking the same yesterday, but the east winds might put the kabosh on that threat to at least some extent.

Hey, hey, hey now! I finished with the exact same numbers of you. Who woulda thunk?

It was 31 when I came in to work this morning. All roads along my drive were just wet. There was enough brine, salt, cinders and grandma agnes's hair oil on the roads to melt an iceberg.

I saw the same thing that you did, and decided to head to the office a little later this morning than normal. There was also an accident on 30 just west of the 441 exit in West Hempfield. All of it was cleared when I came in this morning.
