  1. Did anybody else besides me watch this? It is pretty interesting and I wondered what people thought. It was full of surprises. One came close to home as landfall was predicted about where I lived for years in downtown Jersey City about ten blocks from the Hudson River. Another point of interest to me was evacuating NYC area. How could it be done in a matter of days? I thought about that during Katrina as the struggles of people in New Orleans were on TV and later when Superstorm Sandy paid us a visit. There are so many more residential towers and less undeveloped land to absorb water than there once was.
  2. Jesus, just checked in first time tonight or maybe even all day. Wasn't expecting all this activity. Still 67 in Williamsport, TV says our rain coming soon. We will only drop down to 54 overnight and only go up to 57 as our high tomorrow. I expect to be up for awhile and will check back.
  3. I may be speaking just for me, I may be speaking for many -- but I feel I need to see a picture of that. No dog of any size could do that in our bathroom. And a 130 lbs dog is same size as an adult woman. So the next time you get a chance, could you treat us to some laughs and take a picture to share with us? Please say yes!
  4. I posted a few heat-related tidbits earlier. I just found another one: Canada is already putting out Western province forest fires, ahead of their normal fire season. I never saw anything on the news about Canada adding lots of new money, manpower and firefighting equipment to their budget. Without lots more money, they will still let a lot of fires go so I figure another bad summer for them could mean another bad summer for us. I do not want to see smoke values of almost 500 and be told to stay indoors. But based on this fire scientist's remarks, it could happen again. https://x.com/queenofpeat/status/1761496677779755329?s=20
  5. 2:45p: Temperatures in Williamsport. We are cold up here vs the rest of you. Only 34 at the airport. I see we are going down to 19 overnight. Looking at the 14 day forecast, the coldest night is 24. I would not be surprised if we don't make it back into the teens again this winter. Next two weeks have lots of 50s and even some 60s. We shall see. I just hope we don't have a hot summer. I saw last week that whatever they call it designated hurricane creation zone in the Atlantic was at July temps now, a first. Yikes! Last month I saw temp map of Australia that was all light brown, that was how hot it was there. Enjoying the sun up here, that's for sure, after so little of it recently.
  6. I am so glad the show was worth the trip. I am going to do a little Williamsport promotion here. This is Williamsport's gorgeous Community Arts Center. It was the Capitol Theater when I was in school. We lost all three of our downtown movie theaters as far as first run movies were concerned by 1980. The newest one was demolished. The Rialto was taken over by a church and with a lot of help and hard work, the Capitol was transformed into this big beautiful space. No one would expect little Williamsport would have this gem but we do. If there's a show up here you're interested in, please come. You won't be sorry!
  7. NWS has Montoursville Airport, 5 miles away from Williamsport, down for .01 at 18:54 and 20:54 last night, for grand total of .02 over last 24 hours.
  8. This one was hard to pin down and once it looked like things were becoming clear at last, there was the big move south. We never did have a handle on it. It is still 36 at 1:45a at Montoursville Airport and while we are in blue for snow, lots of rain still happening in middle of the state like above Harrisburg. I figure things could go several ways for everybody and we will just have to see.
  9. NWS and others say Williamsport gets almost nothing at under 2. AccuWeather still sticking with the prior program. I do not know why: TONIGHT'S WEATHER MON, FEB 12 Snow; rain mixed in early, accumulating 4-8 inches; slippery conditions may lead to travel disruptions Lo: 34° Tomorrow: 1-3 inches of snow early in the morning; mostly cloudy and breezy; storm total 4-8"; dangerous travel in the morning with some improvement in the afternoon Hi: 41°
  10. Less than two hours ago NWS had Williamsport at 6-9 in its Winter Storm Warning. They did say in their Discussion that things had shifted south but they were holding off on changing northern predictions for the time being. Now here is what they say: less than 2. So I guess there won't be much to report about up here. I am very happy for the people getting lots more than they thought. Tonight Rain and snow showers, becoming all snow after 4am. Low around 32. Light northeast wind increasing to 5 to 9 mph in the evening. Chance of precipitation is 80%. Total nighttime snow accumulation of around an inch possible. Tuesday Snow showers likely, mainly before 9am. Cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly sunny, with a high near 37. Northwest wind 9 to 14 mph, with gusts as high as 28 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible.
  11. I noticed this over at weather.gov. We broke some records due to warmth. Between big drops in gas prices on the world market finally translating into lower UGI rates and a warm winter overall, I must say I am glad my gas bills are finally less: .CLIMATE... The following temperature record occurred during the mild weather on Friday and Saturday: FRIDAY FEBRUARY 9TH: -High of 58 degrees at Williamsport tied the record set last year. -High of 62 degrees at State College broke the previous record of 59 degrees in 2001. SATURDAY FEBRUARY 10TH: -High of 53 degrees at Bradford tied the record set in 2001. -Low of 35 degrees at Bradford tied the record maximum low temperature set in 2002. -Low of 41 degrees at State College broke the previous record maximum low temperature of 39 degrees set last year.
  12. I wish there were a lot more people here from the northern part of the state, not just us here in North Central PA but NE PA too. But there aren't. So we rely on you guys further south to keep things going. You do us a pretty big favor, if you think about it. You all keep the subforum going and I am very grateful for that. The northern handful can just chime in with opinions and reports as best we can.
  13. Me too! I am in Williamsport and very curious as well. Looks like we could get something worthwhile out of this. I wasn't expecting that. Earlier today wunderground had just 1.4.
  14. 2:23a. Surprised to realize we are way off our westher.gov temp prediction -- by 10 degrees. I wonder if we will drop more? Are they going to update forecast? Current conditions at Williamsport - Lycoming County Airport (KIPT) Overnight Mostly cloudy, with a low around 16. Southwest wind around 6 mph. Fair 6°F Humidity 76% Wind Speed Calm Barometer 30.10 in (1020.3 mb) Dewpoint 0°F (-18°C) Visibility 10.00 mi Last update 18 Jan 1:54 am EST
  15. Hi there. I am glad you spoke up this time when visiting us. Please feel free to chime in any time when you come to check out Lancaster weather. I am up in Northcentral PA in Williamsport. We have a cousin with her kids and grandkids down in North Carolina who come up here.
