Mount Joy Snowman

Believe it or not, I actually hit 90 here briefly earlier, now down to 88.

87 here as well. It's a rare thing to see you not coming in a couple degrees higher than me ha. Low of 59 last night for me.

Wow, if just the school and county rate was 6.85% that's crazy high and explains the insane taxes. For perspective, my total property tax rate here in West Hempfield is 22.1189 mills, or roughly 2.2%, and that's including a municipal rate of 1.95 mils that I'm not sure you were even factoring in. Wonder why they are so high up that way. I always tell my wife you never truly own your home, even after paying off your mortgage, and if you think you do, try not paying your property tax bill and see what happen haha.

Wow that must have been an insane millage rate to get taxes that high off of a property value of 179. Crazy.

I noticed that they went away on the site I use as well, hmmmmmm.... https://www.wrh.noaa.gov/zoa/getobext.php?sid=KLNS

Thank you, very kind of you. I take a lot of pride in being financially responsibly, have never spent beyond my means and as such, have never paid a dime of credit card interest. Totally agreed on the modest home with no debt. We're trying to stay positive and remember how fortunate we are to have a decent home. The main issue for us is wanting the second full bath so we don't have to share with kids as they age. As it currently stands we have 1.5 and nowhere to really add another one. Also the one car garage with single lane driveway sticks in my craw a bit but we can certainly make do. Modern day problems, I know ha. We have seen quite a few houses in Donegal that have annual property taxes in the 6-8k range. As I'm sure you're keenly aware, Donegal has some of the higher school taxes in the region.

Same here! Zero debt. The mortgage was the last hurdle. It's a phenomenal feeling. But it looks like we may be staying in our townhouse with two kids forever haha. Yeah thought I would go a touch lower last night. MDT is actually dead on for its June temp being exactly average to this point, at 72.3. The old culprits of Death Valley and Peter Sinks are at it again with the national high and low of 122 and 29, respectively.

Yep. It will level off at some point (we hope ha). Right now is just the worst of both worlds with the rates having risen and the market still being red hot with demand which is keeping prices high. Of course, interest rates don't matter when you're making cash offers and that's a lot of what we're losing out to around here. Ugh.

Congrats! My wife and I just became mortgage free last month, no better feeling. We have been in the housing market for over a year but it's absolutely impossible to buy a decent home in the Lancaster area these days. That's with offering well over already-inflated list prices, waiving inspections, appraisal waivers, 25% down, offering to pay transfer taxes, etc.....the works. Still not a chance, so we just said screw it let's pay off the mortgage on our townhome instead. It's a great feeling but also the housing situation is beyond frustrating. Also, low of 57 here last night.

A high of 79 here. A day for the ages, pure perfection.

A low of 55 here. A couple of splendid days on tap.

Some nice showers rolled through, to the tune of about an additional .07".

Hard for temps to go much lower when dews are hanging around 70! Sultry.

A high of 91 yesterday and low of 71, with a total of .25" of rain. Some more rain on my doorstep. Looks like a pleasant few days ahead, followed by things turning hot towards the first half of the weekend. MDT looks like it will end up right around average for monthly temp.

I'm not sure since I use a manual gauge and didn't check anything last night; however, after checking some WU stations, it appears you got in on some heavier cell action through the night, particularly around the 9 or 10pm hours last night that we didn't really get.

Sitting at a temp of 63 and with a total rainfall of .63". No, that was not a typo ha. A very nice soaking rain, was great to fall asleep to as well. Once again, @Itstrainingtime stole my lunch money. Should be a nice summery weekend.

Same here. Quite a boundary that set up today, and quite evident where that boundary is with regards to where all the storms are firing.

How ‘bout it. Down to 71 here.

A high of 86 yesterday with .01" of rain and a low of 64 last night. MDT now only .6 degrees above average for the month. Looks like a good drenching for many today into tonight, likely focused across the Midstate. Dare I say a Franklin County bullseye. I'm actually heading out to a cabin in northern Fulton County tomorrow for a brief stay, so I hope they don't get flooded out too much over that way. Onward.

Oh wow. Dropped to 47 here. Edit: I see now where you corrected yourself.

Low of 51 here. I’m going to have some beers and watch the US Open with my pops. Happy Father’s Day to all.

Yeah it’s pretty wild. Still holding out hope for it to clear up this afternoon and temps to pop a bit, perhaps even into the low 70s.

Virtually no sun here all day. I’m still sitting at 65. Remarkable.

My temp has been dropping through the morning. Now stuck at 65.

Dewpoint been dropping like a rock here the last couple hours. Think I’m gonna top out at 91. Splendid weekend on tap.
