Mount Joy Snowman

Low of 48. Official tally from the overnight Saturday/Sunday early morning rain was .12”. The weather gods again treating us too kindly this week. 

Low of 60 with an eighth of an inch of rain. First football sunday!

Just saw video, Prescott spit first, but he spit down a Carters feet and gave a shit eating F you smile. He should be tossed too

Yep. But also what the heck is Carter doing damn near in the Dallas huddle. He was still the worst actor here in my eyes but just dumbness all the way around. Such a stupid way to start a game. 

Low of 63 with 1.09” of rain. Seems like I may have been the big winner yesterday? Happy Friday!

Barely a sprinkle in south Philly 

I can’t stand how over-cautious they are with modern weather delays, and I say that as a weather enthusiast. 

Some more nice storms rolled through. Might be over an inch now. Feel bad for the Harrisburg folk who keep missing out. Seems like everything this season has fired just to their southeast.

You did much better than I did - .32" is my total. 

Yeah I noticed that. Some nice stuff firing upstream though. We’ll have to see how it plays out. Curious if the Bird’s game sees any action tonight too. I have some friends down there, wild scene. 

Man oh man, the lightning here was downright scary. House was nearly struck again on a few strikes. Looks like a little under three quarters of an inch out there. Good storms. 

Really nice line of storms here.  Drenching with T&L.

Low of 61. Rain chance this evening and again on Saturday, and then we get another taste of fall. Happy Thursday, y’all. 

54 when I left the house, 50 through the rurals with some nice valley fog.

Both Harrisburg airports have remained at the same location since they started reporting weather obs. MDT records go back to 1992 while Harrisburg Capital Airport go all the way back to 1939. 

If you had any doubts that MDT records are questionable, as many have mentioned/joked since I purchased a home in 2019 and followed the forum, this summer's records are all the evidence you need.

MDT monthly temp anomalies respectively:

+1.3, +2.5, -2.6 = monthly average of +.4 (normal is ofter defined as +/- .5)

Capital Airport monthly temp anomalies respectively:

+.7, +1.2, -4.0 = monthly average of -.7

I’ve been meaning to make a post of this nature because, when I do my daily checks, I’ve been stunned by how many times this summer MDT has come in a good 2-5 degrees warmer than even CXY for daily lows. I know we’re all aware of MDT’s tendency to run high for minimums this time of year but it seemed especially egregious. They are routinely the warmest station in the state along with PHL. That’s why I had to laugh when that one guy popped in a while back to rant about MDT being too cold of a spot for our area. I didn’t bother responding but about spit out my drink haha. I’m not even in a cold spot relative to most of the forum and I can’t tell you how many times my low will be something like 54 and MDT’s will be like 60 ha. Speaking of, it was 54 when I left the house this morning. Carry on.

There aren’t enough antibiotics in the world to get me to touch that water ha

Ah C’mon Candy, live a little! We go in the river all the time. Got to build up that immune system. It’s like George Carlin used to say, they never got sick as kids because they swam in the Brooklyn River haha. “We swam in sewage!” 

Low of 52. The perfect Labor Day upon us. 

Low of 48 again. #BoatDay

Low of 48. Love hearing about these low readings. Might do it again tonight. 

Sitting at 55/48 at midnight…..oh yeah, gonna be lots of 40s out there tonight. 

Here's a new one......national low of 27 near Big Bay, MI.

Looks like a ULL feature could control our weather late next week through the weekend, and then a possible warmup after that.  Onward. 

Low of 56. Just stacking days. What a stretch. 

National low was 31 near Davis, WV........Bradford hit 35.  Damn.

Low of 52. Another perfect morning.

Bottle up this day. Decided to buy tickets again today for the Sox in Baltimore since it’s so nice. 

Your boys have been something else this year. Who would have thought they’d be tied with the Yanks at this juncture.

I have calculated the ending average temperature for here in East Nantmeal Township using the current NWS Forecast. If the forecast temperatures verify - this will be the chilliest August since my records begin here from back in 2004 across 22 years of data.

Again, @TimB I'm not sure what's funny about this.  You know who else is looking at a really chilly August?  MDT, who's likely to finish with its 1st or 2nd coldest August in 30+ years.  I'm not here to carry the banner for @ChescoWx or vouch for everything he says, but at this point you're just trying to be a d$ck.

Could be wrong but I believe we have our first "official" reading in the 30s for Pennsylvania, as BFD hit 37 last night.

You’re in such a great spot for inversion nights.
