I didn't see your post till now, Red.  Sorry about the clouds and low temps.  A bit warmer in Monmouth, but not by much.  Warmer day tomorrow, I'm sure.

Jacket day here today stayed in the 60's. I likely will be complaining about the heat on Tuesday ;)

Need to remember to get back there one of these days... er, trips...

yeah, probably close to 30yrs since I've been there, had forgotten all about the tower until moving close to Yardley & riding the canal path up to Washington Crossing on the weekends

definitely going to check back in the fall when the leaves are peaking

Your pix show off what may be an underrated part of the Northeast.  The Delaware River and its valley, all the way from NY state down at least to here, are beautiful.  I understand that the lower valley is nice as well.  Thanks for posting these!

Not sure if that qualifies as most of the area but thanks.

Found these as well from NWS

Apr 19

 

...1983...

A record late snowstorm for the area began on the 19th and extended into the 20th. 1-3"

of snow fell in Srn portions, with up to 8-20" falling in the north. PHL received 1.3"

on the 19th and 0.6" on the 20th, both daily snowfall records. (PHL)(SD)

 

Apr 23

 

...1986...

An unusual late snowfall blanketed the PA Poconos with 30" of snow, and NW NJ

received up to 20". Phl received a daily record snowfall amount of a trace.

Apr 28

 

...1898...

The month of Apr has the most daily snowfall records at PHL extending from the

1800s, a total of 7. They are: 1.0" on the 4th, 1886; 3.0" on the 5th, 1898; 0.7" on the

10th, 1894; 0.5" on the 11th, 1894; 0.3" on the 15th, 1892; 0.5" on the 16th, 1888; and

a trace on the 28th, 1898. (PHL

 

...1891...

A trace of snow has fallen at PHL only 5 times in May, on the 1st in 1953, of which

a dusting of snow on the ground holds the record for maximum snow depth, then

again in 1963; on the 6th in 1891; and on the 8th in 1898, and again in 1947, the latest

day that snow has occurred at PHL. (PHL)
