Might be the only say to mow in the next 4!

Quite frosty here this AM. 34 degrees.

LOL, I was just having fun but what if it snows in July? I wonder if they count then in 20-21. LOL.

I love looking through these records. Some other interesting stats: * After November 2nd it has never hit 80 at MDT until March the following year. I would have thought there would have been more 80's later in the month after recent February runs at 80. * In fact the February average of record highs are quite comparable to November at MDT. Very similar maxes over the different days of the month. I guess that makes sense. Dec and Jan are the two colder months when it comes to averages of record highs. * But when it comes to record lows February is much colder than November records. * In 1945 it hit 49 on July 2nd at MDT * In 1941 it hit 49 on August 5th at MDT ***** The records show it snowed at MDT on August 15th? Maybe some graupel?

18Z Nam and GFS both focus on the southern half of PA. Main differences are the Nam staying snow in more places. 18Z Icon looks a lot likes its 12Z run.

I am fine as long as whatever snow falls does not make our "season" anything but the least snowiest ever recorded. Here is the link for Williamsport and Harrisbirg showing what I would consider to be their latest snow falls. Altoona, Johnstown did not record snow. Get this...Bradford hit freezing on August 5th, 1972! https://www.weather.gov/ctp/climateRecordsWilliamsport

Totally agree with highlighted comment. Mag's post showing T's amounts at some point in the last several decades and thought someone else's pointed out another year it happened but maybe not at LNS. MDT has apparently recorded May snow 3 times but never over a trace. I had asked about this in the last day or two so decided to go find it. Also of interest from this page the lowest temp ever recorded at MDT, in May, is 31 so there is a bit of a chance that is challenged! Add on-Williamsport has trace May amounts several times and actually recorded 2/10" in 1948. Their all time May Low is 28 several times.

It almost got to 80 a few Feburary's ago. I did not know snowflakes in May were more than 10-20 year rare and I thought Mid 90's in November was once a century so he overstepped his bounds. LOL.

I could have sworn people on here were saying it just happened in the 90's (flakes at least) Then there was once in the 70's.

Well accumulating snow maybe but snow flurries...I assumed that happens once every 10-20 years in the LSV. I did not check end of November averages though just picked a number that would spoil the day....anything above 70 on Turkey day is a complete fail.

LOL, come on now. We NEVER want it in the mid 90's. Snow in May is equal to 80 on Turkey Day.

NWS added the word 'snow' to the LSV zones for Friday night and Saturday. That almost feels like a minor victory in itself.

Yea, the we have had a bit of sun actually. I saw the southern edge was very close to you.

Seems the rain for today in the LSV was kind of over stated? We have been dry since 10AM.

12Z Euro drives the SLP through the middle of PA instead of under it so the results are as below. Should we throw it out because we are within 60 hours and outside the Euro's wheelhouse time? :-)

I only count 4 months. Oct, Nov, April and May :-)

LOL. The most anticipated run of the Euro for May (ever) just started rolling.

If we are I am going to have a beef with @Blizzard of 93 and his "All snow counts for the season" thought process. June 2020 snows do not count toward 19/20 winter snowfall totals! LOL.

I will say that the low position from the NAM matches up fairly well with the Icon and GFS for this hour. Just a matter of the NAM being more (probably too) snowy.

Totally agree.

I would be pissed if my closest PA station, MDT, got enough snow to get over the total for making this the least snowiest winter ever. We are in May now and I want to keep that distinction and not have it blown on a May 3-5"" slopfest miracle.

That was why I did not post the snow map just the "hey look it might snow some in May" thought of my post...sine surface temps were really too high for accums.

12Z Nam. Shows snow accumulated but temps do not match so not sure about that though they do fall below freezing after the qpf has left.

Several flashes of lightning here.

Thanks, so as depicted this would be a historical event.
