Wmsptwx Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Feeling the LSV mayyy be a skating rink again tmrw. After this cold spell and lows in the 20s it will be a chore to get that surface warmed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I freaking hate ice. Many long-timers around here say ice was NEVER an issue until a few years ago, is that true to anyone's recollection that's been around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like we've had more ice recently than I can remember from my childhood as well, but my meteorological memory is about 10 mins long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I freaking hate ice. Many long-timers around here say ice was NEVER an issue until a few years ago, is that true to anyone's recollection that's been around? It varies from year to year, but I don't think there's any difinitive trend, at least not for my location. Those located in true central may feel differently as it is climatologically snowier there than here, the Harrisburg area, or the Lehigh Valley, where I'm originally from.

Itstrainingtime Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Wait, what? Read in the mid atlantic thread this morning that JB is touting a potential storm next weekend that could rival March of '93. Disclaimer: I didn't hear him firsthand.

Correct...I can recall ice as a kid so thick on snowcover you could walk on top of it without even leaving a mark where you walked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Also, the river has really risen in Harrisburg today. Like, many feet. I know Harrisburg Fire Department officials are preparing for flooding due to the ice jams and ice buildup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Harrisburg Fire Department officials are preparing for flooding due to the ice jams and ice buildup. Love the riverfront in HBG. I had season tickets for years for the Sens and the new Metro Bank Park is great. I just wish the stadium faced downtown instead of the trees on the western edge of the island. Flooding is obviously always a concern there. A couple years back the Sens lost home field in the playoffs due to flooding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfox1 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Correct...I can recall ice as a kid so thick on snowcover you could walk on top of it without even leaving a mark where you walked. Yea I can remember that also now that u mentioned it. Not sure when it was or more then once but do remember never breaking the ice walking on several inches of snow.

sauss06 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Ice has always been an issue along the mighty susky! Some years not so much, others varying degrees of destruction, some up stream, some times worse down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sorry to be so off topic) No problem at all, you can email me at [email protected]. Thanks, I you would like keep the dual controls in and let you try out some helicopter flying since you have flown before. You just cant get much better photos then out of a helicopter low and slow as much as you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmsptwx Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 My Uncle flies me in a Cessna all the time, very cool to see you aviation enthusiasts!!! Paweather I'd also be interested in paying for a flight if possible!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeffsvilleWx Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I'd love to go up too, I'll have to check out your site. I flew in a ch-47 in Iraq and loved it. The tail gunner had the ramp down and I was within a few seats of the rear so I got to look out over Baghdad as we flew over at about 2 am local. It was definitely my favorite aviation experience. Although, I imagine flying in something that doesn't resemble a schoolbus with rotors is even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
