Central PA Spring 2026 Discussion/Obs Thread
pasnownut replied to Voyager's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
good luck w/ the crops. Sounds like later is better for your garden. Happy planting. We gave up on our garden a couple years ago. I/we miss the "fruits of the labor, but it was my wifes hobby, and i was just the weed guy. I hate pullin weeds....lol. She just does small batch stuff in some of our larger beds. Jalapenos going in very soon she says. Her pepper jam is a crowd pleaser, just like her horseradish used to be. Have a good weekend all. -

My wifes family is 2 generation farming family (Pine View Dairy for those that know the area). They told me many moons ago that safe bet was memorial day for planting. I think because of the many warm springs that've been sprinkled in, it has moved up the planting timeframe, but to the peril of the planter. Spring hasnt changed that much, that its worth the gamble imo. I see sweet corn already 4-6" tall near my house, but thats much smaller scale gamble than a few hundred acres of regular corn. Fruit folks, totally diff ballgame (and not a good one this year). Hope yall are doing well. -

Left cabin yesterday w/ snow/sleet combo, and had a few slushbombs hitting windshield on way to office this morning. Not sure were done w/ flakes flyin up north, but it was a fitting end to my trackin for the year. Cave's a callin, but I'll stop in once in a while. -

While you are correct that we should all pay attention, there was little reason IMO for public/private businesses to shut doors at 1-2pm. While you cant put a real value on loss of life, the signs just really didn't look THAT ominous. Secondly for those of us who had to buck it up and ride the storm out from our cars/work whatevs.... knowing that the real show wasn't to start after rush hour (here in east central/eastern locals), that wasn't a good look and one where distrust can fester from. Tough calls, but I agree, the misinformation shown on soc. media, didnt help AT ALL. -

Ive watched Ryan, and hes not too bad, but yeah some of them are really just as good/useful as giving me a Youtube channel as I can spout off the same crap they do w/ little added value. -

On way up to cabin Friday night, once we got to wellsboro, it started to snow, and by the time we got to Tyoga Country club, it was easily the hardest snow I've seen this year. Huge flakes, and from there to Ansonia was a crawl. Up on top at cabin ended up w/ 1-2" depending on where you were. Cut wood saturday morning in a snow covered landscape. Was nice. regarding today, yeah its been showing up consistently on some models and I'd think NC and NE Pa stand best chances for some late season shenanigans. hoping we stay cloudy long enough to mitigate sever to just a nice squall line w/ Tboomers -

While i've not gotten the levels of grief that you have, whenever they as me about weather here, I just say "its up in the air". They give cockeyed stare but most know why I do it. -

Yeah. as you suggested fringe folks dont have the rates for flippage. I expected nothing as I shared yesterday, but some mood flakes always make me smile...no matter when I see em. Save a snowball for me down on Turk hill -

Pics are great (as a weather geek), but glad it wasnt worse. Sure felt raw out there this am, but the grass was looking appreciative of the precip as its starting to green up for me -

My wife loves Dipco's long island iced tea. Dont let your significant drink more than 2 on an empty stomach....trust me. That was ugly. I'm down for most anything Asian, so I'll have to tell my wife about Issei. I'll pass on the cocktail though. Maybe she can try one. Thanks for the heads up. -

Well...they either implied or wished by some....my post had nothing to do with you saying as such, but yes i did include your ex. into the convo. Point to be made, any and all can be wrong once in a while....NO exceptions. -

beer bet says no. Still gonna be a rude awakening.... THIS is why I try to suppress the early chatter of the "its over" crowd. This happens almost every stinkin year. Wishing for sustained warmth in early March, is like wishing for 4 weeks of nice snow cover. It can happen, and just did, but a rarity, and not something worth complaining over when it doesnt happen. -

Southern Market is really cool. not outdoor, but its an international style venue, w/ many different cultural goodies to pick from. Rally nice bar in the center that'll suite you well...me thinks. -

took my wife there a couple weeks back. Really like that place. I also agree that a phone call for outside seating might be smart, as they may not be ready for outdoor service. -

I'm headed to cabin this weekend for work weekend. From what i've seen much ice is gone from Pine. You should start to drop soon. Not sure there's enough of a pattern change to worry about flooding, but hoping drought concerns are mitigated. Gonna be what its gonna be. Happy spring fling all. Didnt mean to come off as a jackwagon, but its seemed a bit tense as we transition away from winter and what's next. Every year the first warmup seems to give false hope, and we all should know that its too soon to "call it", let alone squabble over uncertainty.
