ITT maintains D2 Northeast Drought Summary Temperatures were near normal over most of the region with most places being a couple of degrees above or below normal for the week. The warmest readings in the region were in eastern Maine with departures of 3-6 degrees above normal. Almost the entire region recorded over 100% of normal precipitation for the week with only portions of western Pennsylvania and western New York right at normal. The greatest departures were in portions of southwest Virginia and into New England where over 300% of normal precipitation was observed. With the pattern being wetter recently, improvements were made in much of the region. Extreme drought was removed from Massachusetts while moderate and severe drought and some abnormally dry conditions improved in Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, and Virginia. Even with the good week of precipitation, some long-term indicators were still lagging and didn’t have the complete response to show even more improvement

41 and mostly cloudy for nooners. Made it to 44 earlier but has fallen back.

I concur with this thought, SMU's QB is very good, they have a good running back and are just a fast team over all. If it were snowing/raining that would definitely hamper them but sunny and 30 will not. Does not mean they are not stomped but they are one of the best teams in the country. White out may un-nerve them.

The Dubois of the forum.

A wet Christmas too though it is mostly on its own with that right now.

GFS QPF through rest of Dec.

Icon gave up the ghost for the most part.

If Hanover did that, the Starlight would be hammered as people passed over them.

I feel like I get caught in a trap when trying the back roads but it can take me 15 min to get from the mall area to 194 which is ridiculous. Not always that bad but sometimes it is.

Yeah, just one lane which is part of the issue there and all 3 have parking in the circle. I have to Adamstown a lot and figured you meant the route 30 abbott. Lol

That is UTZ in the Upper right of the pic. In what would likely be the most controversial of the options, alternative 2 would replace the intersection with a two-lane roundabout. While the most expensive option, at $2.926 million, alternative 2 showed the greatest benefit to traffic safety and congestion, according to the presentation. This option would also have the highest impact on surrounding properties, with eight properties displaced by the construction. By 2045, a roundabout would cut congestion to less than half of the estimated delays from any of the other proposals, according to the numbers shared in the presentation. At peak p.m. congestion by 2045, the estimated delays per vehicle would only be around 6 seconds. Planners found that a two-lane roundabout had significant improvements over a single-lane roundabout, Caba said.

The ones I deal with regularly (Gettysburg, New Oxford and Abbottstown) the people act like it is a stop and it causes some confusion. People have to get used to pulling out and merging before they become really beneficial. The Villages in Florida has 45 of them so people need to get their training here before moving.

Speaking of drivers causing traffic, they are thinking of putting some circles/roundabouts in your area to try and fix the issues.

Some models have lows near 15 as the trough is positioned differently on them... so still an open case.

34 this Am. Temps went up a few notches on some suites for the White Out. Icon and Euro still in the 20's but other suites, including all mesos I saw, suggest low 30's now. Zone actually went down 1 degree.

AIE had their meeting in Sept. Are they having another one?

Made to 58 today. Some of the nws sites got 59 or 60

MUI, CXY and LNS all well into the 50's. MDT boasting a 45. 57 at Rou. Edit, CXY is now 12 degrees higher than MDT.

Late Nooners. Partly cloudy and 55. Lots of upper 50's in Adams county.

The Atlantic saves us from a torchmas on the GFS. The country is in the process of being routed of almost all cold air but we in South PA hold on to stay in the upper 30's and 40's with some light frozen precip in NE PA.

The GFS has a rain shower over me. LOL . Mid to upper 30's on the GFS and CMC.

The piece of energy coming from the Upper Mid West is dying/transferring as it gets closer to the ocean low/front.
