  1. Yeah it's all about siting when it comes to anemometers. After a while I just took mine down because, like you, I couldn't get any readings worth a crap.
  2. It's always a good day to day drink. Booze just hits different with the sun up.
  3. Whoops I wasn't aware there was one, will head over there now.....
  4. November is my driest month, with a monthly average of only 2.78", but even by those standards this November was particularly dry, as I ended up with a total of 1.39". Millersville came in at only .99", marking their 10th driest November on record. It looks like MDT totaled 1.20" with a monthly temperature departure of -1.5. Oh yes, I also totaled .2" of snow, just under my average of 1.09". Carry on.
  5. Nice mood flakes here. I've had various parts of the morning where I was under heavier radar returns and nothing was falling and then no returns where nice light snow was falling, that is to say, we are entering winter radar season! Yes, I know the lower levels need to moisten up but still, dissecting winter radar is always fun, particularly when you live in the Bermuda Triangle of radar returns like we do around here.
  6. I’m in between MDT and LNS and topped out at 43 today.
  7. Looks like a widespread 1-2” for most of the mid-state and northern tier. Highest amount I’ve seen in PA is a report of 4.7” near Corry, which has had a heck of a start to the season.
  8. I had a legit tenth or two on the deck when I went to bed last night. Unfortunately didn’t get an official measurement with it being mostly gone now but it will certainly go in the books as the first snow of the year.
  9. I bottomed out at 24 last night. MDT only hit 29, I guess we'll take it ha. Mount Washington led the way by hitting -2.
  10. 26 here overnight. I always get a kick out of the various winter "forecasts".
  11. Yeah the Canadian kid looked pretty decent. More good than bad, that’s for sure. We shall see but I think he starts next week.
  12. Mel Tucker might want to hurry up and sign that contract before they change their mind
  13. This has been…how shall we say….painful. Meanwhile Ohio State should be arrested for what they are doing to Michigan State.
  14. Yes, yes they do. A noon kick in November with not much to play for against Rutgers should lead to quite a sad looking student section. I on the other hand will be breathlessly hanging on to every play, like some sort of fanatical weirdo. One day I’ll grow out of this.
  15. .06" of rain yesterday for me and one heck of a brisk day on tap.
  16. I hit 35 last night and awoke this morning to near-zero visibility fog. Now full sun and 62. Looking forward to this potent little cold front sweeping through this evening and then the lake effect machine kicks on briefly for our friends in NW PA. Nothing too crazy but someone up there will pop six inches (no dirty jokes).
  17. Feeling great over here in West Hempfield! My wife and I both got Covid last November (very mild for both of us) and in the year since haven’t had so much as a sniffle. Nothing at all, and that’s with us going to countless gatherings/shindigs, bars/restaurants, large events, you name it…..everything. That natural immunity is strooooooooong. But in all seriousness, sending my best to @Itstrainingtime and @Voyager and anyone else feeling under the weather. We’ll need everyone at full speed as we hit peak tracking season in the months to come. Get well friends!
  18. Corry, PA up in Erie County has 12 inches of snow on the ground. That is all. Good day. #WinterIsComing
  19. Looks like right about an inch on the nose for me. Last call if anyone wants my Penn State - Michigan tickets, dropping the price to $80!
  20. This is accurate. They will hone in on Dotson, shut down the run, and let loose on Clifford. On offense they will run the ball effectively enough to control the game flow. I was at the Maryland game and outside of a few big plays it was more of the same old same old, just meh. As always, I hope to be wrong on all of this ha. Notably, my Michigan tickets for this weekend still haven't sold. The wife is making me go to a wedding of a coworker. I just lowered them to $110 a piece, great value. Section WFU, roughly 40 yard line type view. Feel free to DM me if any of you are interested.
  21. The national high temp failed to reach 90 yesterday for likely the first time since last winter. We're getting close folks.
  22. It can be a different world sometimes when you're traveling westbound and come up out of that tunnel into Somerset County, leaving behind the lowlands and all.
