Euro shows Philadelphia flirting with the century mark this weekend.

My ten day shows 49 for the high next Thursday before the heat shows up for next weekend. Next weekend is opening weekend at Delgrosso's in Tipton, which is basically a babysitter for the true central. Last year opening weekend was cloudy and damp with 50s for highs. I'll take next weekend's current outlook

It has barely rained in those areas.

Ten day shows a lot of clouds, but no 50s. I can live with sixties in May.

Mow #2 is in the books. Finally feeling like I've caught up to the growth of the last year. Holy hell.

Decent thunder above about an hour ago.

I feel like May is always our coldest non-winter month.

I think what pisses me off is that right now it's sunny and 75°F and I'm sitting inside working. By the time Saturday rolls around, it'll be cold and wet again. Because at least here, that's how the weekends go in May. This past weekend I got home from my kid's T-Ball game, which was a nightmare because by the time all the pomp and circumcision was finished, it was cold, windy, and wet, and then snowflakes started mixing in with the rain. Two days later, it's a gorgeous spring day. And the point and click shows more cool and wet on the weekend to where I took time off work tomorrow to mow the grass because it already needs to be done again. Last year felt worse than this so far, but it seems like the first half of summer is going to be lousy. I can understand in Lancaster, where it's supposed to be warmer, it was. Here it's been a mixed bag.

What the hell is going on?

Froze to death this morning/early afternoon as a wonderful feature of being here in the higher lands is the sun was out at this morning at 9:15 and 38°F felt nice. By game time at 11:30 (after pictures and a parade) the clouds and wind arrived and 44°F was unbearable. I fucking hate May.

My kid's T-Ball Opening Day is tomorrow at 9:30 AM. Current forecast in Curwensville is 38°F at 9:30 AM. I played baseball in snow. I was not four-years-old. This pattern needs to change.

Interesting development: Thunder

Mine was way overdue but I also haven't been there in 12 months to mow and I had to use the second highest blade level on the push mower just to keep it from shutting off. It's going to need another touchup the next sunny day and from there it'll be regular maintenance.

Mow #1 in the books

Gullywasher here in the south middle of the state. Drought being busted.
