Low Level lapse rates are extremely steep right now, close to 9 C/km. Mid-level lapse rates are meh (as usual, when are we gonna get a decent EML plume to roll in one of these days?). Shear is weak and SRH is meager. But LI is decent. It's a wind event type of day, so meh no TORS but I'm here for at least the first "severe" storm of the season.

Of course, you're welcome! The pollen levels have been brutal here in Millersville all month. Literally CLUMPS of pollen just laying all around. Would be nice to get some rain!

Lancaster AP now officially at the driest month of MAY on record (as of now with a week left). Only 0.78" of precip has fallen all month, and barely any measurable rain since May 8th/9th.

Day 3 marginal for NW areas

Well, it really has been dry here. Only 0.76" of precip this month in Lancaster, with nothing but hot and dry in the forecast. It hasn't rained in 12 days. The dome of high pressure might allow for some 90s this weekend. Possibly maybe some storms Sunday evening as a weak trough system passes to our north? It might try to drag down a cold front and initiate some storms on the leading edge. Looking past this weekend, another drier week is likely with some slightly higher POPs as of now.

Gas up to $3.20 here. Sick of this, it's taking a fortune to fill my tank every week. In other news, looking forward to the PGA Championship this week, my pick is Rory McIlroy after his great win at the Wells Fargo two weeks ago.

According to the KABE climate data, since April 7th, we've seen almost 2" of precip. It's definitely not wet here, but certainly not "drought" worthy. Is it below normal precip? Yes, technically. KABE averages like 3+" in the month of April. But we've seen our fair share of precip to keep things moist and green

Lol a 51 HDD in late March is just insane

To all the college basketball fans, it's nice to see Drexel punch their ticket to March Madness for the first time in 25 years!

Windy as heck out there right now

Tonight/Tomorrow morning

Tomorrow, albeit the BL looks horrendous for any accums (those NW)

56"

4" total in Fleetwood

Right around 4" here in Millersville, now over to predominately sleet. Should wrap up the storm, solid thump this morning and lived up to the hype!

3.5-4" here at Millersville. Just went over from heavy snow to sleet in an instant

Dumping here in Millersville

Crossgates has not been friendly to me! I think my low is around a 75 or 76 as well. I remember starting my round with 3 straight birdies once.... gave them all back and shot a +2 on the front. I haven't been able to get out recently because of the snow, so looking forward to spring soon. I play on the Club golf team here, I actually am the founder and president. We had a fun "Ryder Cup" type event within our club team last fall and I don't think I lost a single match haha. Probably the most fun I've ever had golfing. Playing competitively just with friends is a blast. And I didn't know you went to MU, I love this school and wouldn't trade going to any bigger meteorology school (Penn State, Rutgers, Oklahoma, etc.)

Golf is my sport! I've played competitively all the way up from high school and now into college. No lessons, no teachers. Just myself and the course. I'm a 5 handicap so it's taken lots of effort to get to where I'm at. My favorite pros are actually alot of the British guys: Rose, Westwood, Fleetwood, Fitzpatrick. Idk, I've always gravitated towards them haha. Favorite American golfer is Schauffele.

Embiid dropped career high 50 points last night

52"

1" of new snow in Fleetwood

Ukie for Monday. BL is warm, but if rates are heavy enough higher elevations could squeak out 2-4"
