Finished with .77" yesterday. None since midnight.

Very depressing...

My forecast for tomorrow just keeps getting colder and colder... Saturday Showers. High near 44. East wind 6 to 8 mph, with gusts as high as 22 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%

Yes I am. Three grandkids. One 18, one 16, and one 12.

Not really upset about the rain, although it will mess up a rare opportunity to see one of my high school senior grandson's baseball games, which will likely be postponed. We need it. It's the temperatures, which once again drop down into the mid 40's making for a wreched day... Saturday: Rain. High near 46. East wind 6 to 8 mph, with gusts as high as 22 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New precipitation amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.

Sitting at 77 at 4:30pm

25 here at the house, but looking at PWS's nearby, the coldest in the immediate region is down in the Lizard Creek valley near Andreas and my company HQ. There a station is recording 19 currently.

Yes, the rain is needed, but not the windy 40's. This isn't early March, either. Upper 50's to low 60's would be plenty comfortable.

Nasty day so far. Rainy, raw, and of course...windy.

I should be a fortune teller. When I saw that it was going to be cold on Monday I said to the wife that I'd probably get our Hazleton customer. Lo and behold, I'm doing Hazleton deliveries on Monday. It'll be 8 to 10 degrees colder (and much windier) there than at our Allentown and Reading customers. Such is my life...

Couldn't crack 90 as we topped out at 89.1 today. My Monday forecast keeps getting colder as the high is now down to 44. I'm still of the persuasion that this summer is going to be a rollercoaster ride of AN and BN temps every week or two.

88 was the high here. I was wondering if anyone got a 90 today.

.37" after I went to bed last night.

Seeing how we swing the pendulum back to almost winter again next week, I'm beginning to think this summer is going to be a roller coaster ride of hot one week, cool/cold the next.

Seriousf'nly????? Monday Mostly sunny, with a high near 47. Monday Night Mostly clear, with a low around 28.

Not sure what happened just before 9am, but look at my wind and dew point. Drastic changes

Late nooners. 83 in my backyard in Tamaqua.

Still burning per photos from a family friend.

I was just going to say that there's a good one going near Palmerton. They're using helicopters to scoop water out of the Lehigh River to fight it.

Yesterday's winds were so bad that I lasted only two innings at my grandson's HS baseball game in Stroudsburg. They were cold, and blowing from left field to right field and right into my face.

62 over a forecast high of 57. It got nice late, but this morning was another story. Drove to East Stroudsburg to see my grandson's baseball game. I lasted 2 innings. The cold, in your face wind, was just too much to take.

0.03" here. That line must have fallen apart before it got here.

I hope the sun burns these clouds off this morning...

So, this summer our local Reading and Northern Railroad will be hosting the massive Union Pacific Big Boy steam engine as it makes its way from Scranton to Philly. A special excursion will run behind the Big Boy from Nesquehoning to Pittston. Meanwhile our own stream engine (the 2102) will also be running in conjunction with it. After that, it appears that the Big Boy will run the rest of the Reading and Northern trackage to Reading and then eventually Philly. If it does this, it'll pass through Tamaqua along the way. It's going to be one hell of a railroad and steam event.
