  1. Pre-frontal winds were a big nothingburger here, but we did get 2.22" of rain, which looks to preyy much be our final tally for the event.
  2. Aren't you guys west of the front/convection, or is there more to go yet? Radar to the southwest of the capital region looks rather weak...
  3. We may be under the watch here, but I highly doubt we see any severe up this way. We really never had a break from the rain, no wind whatsoever, a solid overcast, and what just seems to be a fairly stable atmosphere. I'd be willing to bet that any severe probably stays south of the turnpike.
  4. Welcome ssavon! Just to let you know. I'm the forum warmanista. While the others live for snow, I live for summer, and that in itself is a testament as to the fine nature of the folks here. I'm certainly an outlier, but am welcome just the same. Overall we have a great passion for weather and get along quite well.
  5. My forecast low for Friday morning is 29 so we shall see. I suppose I could put some pillow cases over the plants and hope it's enough.
  6. Over in my forum we've got a guy still posting fantasy snow maps...lol. Now that's one thing I don't want to see any more of this year. I've got green, growing grass, flowers, budding trees, etc. Time for spring and to put winter to bed until November...
  7. No wind here as of yet, but 1.39" in the gauge so far.
  8. Quite a bit of rain overnight, tipping the gauge at 1.14" as I type. Wind so far is not an issue, but will likely change later. As for storms, what is everyone's best take on who sees the best potential for severe storms and excessive wind gusts? South central? True central? The eastern locations? I suppose some consideration has to be given to if anyone sees any sun today, but I just wonder what's going to take place today, and where the worst might be.
  9. Why did I unignore this? I am so sick of seeing potential snow maps. I'm depressed enough with the Covid-19 stuff, the restrictions, the lack of warm weather to at least take a pleasant walk or work in the yard, lack of work, etc. I don't need anymore depression or I'll end up in an institution...
  10. Are you going to shovel that or just sweep it aside?
  11. Since that big gust it's been kind of quiet here. I don't even hear our wind chimes much.
  12. 65 mph here. Nextdoor neighbor lost some siding and the garage across the street lost half it's shingles...
  13. True that. I've found that my morale is a bit higher when it's fair and warm. I'll go take a walk or work in the yard. Yesterday I power washed the front of the house and the porch. When it's cold, or cloudy and rainy, all I want to do is crawl back into bed and do nothing.
  14. Screw that. Our hyacinths, azaleas, and tulips are in flower. My wife's bleeding heart is about 4-5 inches out of the ground, and my grass seed is just starting to germinate. If it couldn't snow when it was supposed to, then I sure as hell don't want to see snow now...
  15. I sincerely hope your cousin will pull through this quickly and fully recovers. I hate hearing about folks I know and care about having to deal with this.
  16. If I can find a local trucking job, I'd take it if the conditions were right (I'm not desperate), but as for being scared, I am of one thing. Being a long haul driver far from home and coming down with the virus. I wouldn't want to be stuck in, say, Omaha, NE for 2-4 weeks while I "hopefully" recover.
  17. This site here breaks it down into percentage and ratio, which is what I, myself, have been paying attention to. Sure, the big numbers are impressive, but the rate of infection is a better indicator of how good, or bad, a particular county is. To get the ratio and percent, for those who haven't seen it yet, zoom the map and click on the specific county. https://infection2020.com/
  18. 13 new here in Schuylkill for a total of 90 now...
  19. Considering how long it's taking Italy and the rest of Europe to turn the corner, I'm about ready to write off most of the summer.
  20. Pennsylvania tops 10,000 positive cases on Saturday, jumping nearly 1,600 since Friday... https://www.mcall.com/coronavirus/mc-nws-coronavirus-saturday-update-20200404-epomznrqjze3tckcb4top3gin4-story.html
  21. We have more here in the Skook than Cumberland County. I wonder if it's that we are sandwiched between Allentown and Hazleton. Two fast growing hot spots.
