What he said....very nice note.

Before it changes in a few hours, not far from a late April snow.

I was hoping someone would catch that.

I am sorry man.

Like my place, HGR gets less precip on average due to their rain shadow location between two mountain ranges. This mostly comes in to play in the summer when precip is more driven by mesoscale systems that dry out when reaching the leeward side valley of range 1 then reenergize with lift as they pass into Adams County. This area scores bigly with systems that drive in from the SE with the opposite effect in that we wring out and optimize the qpf.

With yesterday's precip added they are up to 12" and in the top 15 for this time of the year historically. Half of the top 14 have occurred since 1994, a period of 30 years, despite these records running back to 1899. However 2024 is one of only two in the top 15 since 2000. The 90's were wet there.

But DT......

This AM's GFS actually has no 70's for 18Z temps next week much less anything near 80. Temps would probably still break 70 a day or two but a big shift from just a couple days ago. Not used to seeing this continuous trend toward less heat. It is often the other way. CMC still has a two-day warmer look.

It sucks...I had to fix the latch on my wife's car trunk (not a euphemism!) yesterday and she wanted to leave it outside. I told her there was no way I was working out there in the 'Cane, bring it in.

40 windy degrees this AM.

Most people in the LSV do not have overly gaudy numbers right now. 13-15.5" seems to be the norm. MDT 15.74 LNS 14.83 CXY 14.37 THV 14.31 HGR 11.54

Heat activated. This is the one of the colder 51 degrees I have seen in a while. Winds gusting over 40 and no sun.

Models teasing that any 80 days next week may be a Sun/Mon thing vs. later in the week as progged before. Then Spring gets ugly for the flingers this time next week.

Nooners, back up to 52 degrees, Mostly Cloudy and quite windy with gusts in the mid 30's.

Down to 47 here. For the year we have had close to 13" now putting us in the top 20 wettest periods to this point using HGR numbers. Your total of 17.98" would be the second wettest start to the year since 1889 using MDT's numbers. As is MDT is #4 pending today's numbers getting added in.

WGAL let you down.

It is still on the MR though a muted single day or 2 vs the whole week....this is followed by a very chilly weekend.

A surprisingly 51 windy degrees and .45 since yesterday afternoon.

Losing streak over. The Caps and Flyers last several weeks are about as bad as it comes trying to get a spot. And the Pens and Wings tied which is worst case...3 points instead of 2.

Already up to .2". Wgal's predict in jeopardy.

In other news that keeps happening, Tom Brady is teasing a comeback though admits being an owner may squash it.

It forms in the humid air from our south.

The Meso's have most of that missing us as the SLP moves almost due North. Our stuff is developing per se.

I think an inch is doable if not a little more just not floods. I bet I get close 1/2 -1" here. It was starting to dry out a bit on the top.
