Mount Joy Snowman

Well, I'm comfortable going out seven days through next Sunday and saying that I think we'll knock a good 2-3 degrees off during that timeframe. In fact, I'll say we're sitting at a monthly mean temp of 46.6 by next Monday morning, which is 2.3 below the current average of 48.9. After that, it gets a little tricky, as we could see a bit of a warm-up during the last seven days of the month. Plus, the period just looks generally more unsettled. But if I must, I'll say that the last seven days adds an additional 1.2 degrees and brings us to a final monthly mean temp of 47.8, which would put us alone in 6th place all-time. Book it.

There really needs to be either an eyeroll or yawn emoji.

Low of 34 here. 'Twas a lovely weekend. Things look mostly dry and chilly for the foreseeable future. National high of 91 at Fort Lauderdale and low of -4 at Peter Sinks. Onward.

Just got mini-mow #1 in. Only did the heavy areas that sprouted up early. Don’t think I’ll be mowing again for quite some time.

Low of 37. Should be a rock solid weekend on tap. Also, for those who care about such things, the mean temp for the month now stands at 48.6. Just sayin’

Low of 55 with .02" of rainfall.

Well we had one, but instead of blocking out the sun with ash and soot it released record amounts of water vapor into the atmosphere, thereby exacerbating the problem. Can't catch a break ha.

Let's take a moment to give a nod to March of 1960 -- the coldest March in Harrisburg history. With an average temp of only 32.0 (mercy!), it is almost a full degree lower than 2nd and 3rd places, which are from the 1800's ha.

It seems this has been addressed by the fine work of Bubbs and JNS but to add.......MDT is likely to have a monthly mean temp of ~48.6 by end-of-day tomorrow. This would represent a +9.5 departure, so no double-digit, but would be good for the warmest March ever to that point. Now, that is likely to come down in a big way through the back half of the month, but as of now, they don't come much toastier.

Yeah my wee bit of elevation has cost me the last couple of nights.

Low of 45, currently sitting at 51/37. Looks like a pretty solid weekend on tap before we get into the chill. The max min of 52 tomorrow at MDT could be very close. It will all depend how quickly the temp drops prior to midnight tomorrow evening. Right now the midnight temp is projected to be ~51, so close call. Other that that, nothing too exciting.

I am prepared for my beating but yes, I am still rooting for maximum snowfall. April is when I turn the page. Until then, I root for pain haha.

A shallow inversion must have set up shop around here. It was only 44 when I left the house but hit 34 on the car thermo through the low-lying rurals.

Hey @Bubbler86 I believe it was Thursday morning you and I were discussing that Sunday could put on a show and boy did it deliver. Some places around Erie even got into the 6-12" range. Just a very solid wintry day for most of the Commonwealth.

Low of 35 here and still a smattering of snow/graupel on various surfaces. Yesterday was a good reminder that, despite the warm week ahead, winter has not yet had its final say.

An insane graupel shower just rolled through here and covered everything — .1” going in the books. What a day!

An impressive squall just rolled through here with very intense wind gusts and a temp drop of nearly ten degrees. Nothing laid but a beautiful scene.

Snowing heavily at my buddy’s cabin up near Galeton right now.

I matched you to a T — 1.24” as well.

Same here but heavier stuff on the doorstep. I’m on my way up to Hershey this afternoon for the state wrestling finals. Stopping at the Hidden Still first. Weather should be nice and miserable.

Low of 35 here, yet had to scrape my windshield. Wasn’t expecting that.

Yep, had my eye on that for a while now. Could be rockin'.

MDT officially set the max min record yesterday of 48. A quarter inch of rain here. Count me amongst those who think the back half of March is more likely than not to end up BN. Whether that means any snow to track, only time will tell.

47 with thick fog and .15” of additional rainfall, bringing event-total to a pedestrian .29”.

Not often you are damn near 20 degrees higher than those of us down this way.
