Central PA Spring 2026 Discussion/Obs Thread
Voyager replied to Voyager's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
The bolded part is what makes me bitch and moan. I'm tired of the wild 30 degree temperature swings. From here on out, I'd like to see the cooler periods hold in the 70's, not drop back into the 50's (like yesterday) and 60's. -

Kind of breezy and cold here this morning. It's 47 currently, but the wind has a bite to it. -

Probably be a 30 degree swing between next week and the end of the month and Memorial Day ends up being 65 and cloudy...lol -

I mentioned this in the Central PA forum when I got blasted for complaining about the cold spells. The huge swings in temps are annoying. -

I can handle a solid rainy day, but multiple days of easterly fetches and drizzle makes me want to drive my truck off a bridge... -

It's strange how our human bodies work differently. The older I get, the more I despise the cold. When I was young, I didn't mind it, but as I got older I started to dislike it. Now I flat out hate it. If it's really cold, it can be downright painful, but in general, I just hate bundling up anymore, and love the freedom of a short sleeve shirt and shorts/jeans. As for the snow and ice, that's a trucking thing. If I worked inside and just had a to and from work commute, I'd probably somewhat like snow -

Different story up here. With a high of only 66, it was more of a damp feeling than a humid one. Borderline jacket weather for me. As for rain, only 0.01" so far. -

Yup. It's getting quite old... And yet ANOTHER semi crappy weekend day today. Chilly, damp and drizzly. -

Got a surprise shower with some thunder a few minutes ago (4:30AM). Picked up 0.02"...lol -

This is true. It's much cooler in Tamaqua, then adding in that a lot of my work puts me in Hazleton, which is even colder than Tamaqua, and you can see my frustration. Also, a malfunctioning thyroid makes me even more cold intolerant, and there you have it. A perfect recipe for complaining. So I too will apologize. Perhaps I need to tone it down and respect other folks' likes and preferences. -

And another thing, and yes, I'm a bit feisty this morning, but what can make this forum unreadable at times isn't the complaining about heat or cold, but the sports (basketball) posts that litter this place up from time to time. Those belong in the banter thread. -

Take out those anonymous near 90 degree days (which even I don't necessarily want in April) and it wouldn't have been. -

Sorry you feel that way, but it's about consistency. I don't need a torch, but I, like most people, don't really want frost and freeze warnings this time of year, nor windy -10+ to -15 daytime departures. Give me 45/65 and I'm quite fine with that. -

Just a random one-off in this decrepit cold spell. I was just outside and needed my winter coat because in addition to the cold, the wind had to ramp up as well. -

Yeah, I was quite surprised this morning. It's 38 now, but was 41 when I first woke a 4am. Yes, I'm an early bird and can't sleep in even on my days off. -

I didn't know it was going to rain all night. Picked up another .17" from this little event. -

Ended up with another .11" from last nights little rain event. Sitting at 36 this morning, so perhaps a light frost in colder areas closer to sunrise. -

It started raining again here (Tamaqua) around 5:30pm. Hasn't stopped since -

Anyone seeing rain/drizzle? Up here in wretched Hazleton today, and of course I'm getting rained on. If there's one place I hate, it's Hazleton. The weather is always shitty in one form or another up here. -
