Stebo Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Looks like the convective overturned air is winning out, storms have fallen below severe limits, of course it is after dark as well which isn't help for convective maintance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 It was 83 at my parents' near Dallas. That's even more crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 This is incredible...temperatures bottoming out at 59 degrees at the apartment this morning. The cool weather has been so consistent this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 53 for a low in New Salem this AM. Actually contemplated a light jacket for a few moments when I first walked out the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennMan Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 53 for a low in New Salem this AM. Actually contemplated a light jacket for a few moments when I first walked out the door. 48° in Bellefonte with two more sub-50 nights incoming. Peppers and tomatoes hating it. I have pepper plants that I started from seed in late March that are still only 6" tall...ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I've LOVED this summer. No heat, cool mornings. I know it's not good for you real gardeners and that does suck, but it's great for our lettuce and tomatoes and peppers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've only had about 1/4 the production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wmsptwx Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Meh, been pretty boring despite a good string of storms right before and after the 4th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eskimo Joe Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 48 this morning. Tomatoes are not liking this at all, if this keeps up by mid September our plants will be at an end. Our Roma's have exploded. I'm still waiting on the Cherokee that jaime suggested to start producing. And the flavor of what tomatos we have got is fantastic. We just started to get our Cherokee Purple's last week, they like warmer weather so if they don't produce this year, you might want to give them a second chance.

PennMan Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 I was curious about how many sub-50° lows we've had in Bellefonte so far this summer, as they seem to be occurring on a weekly basis, so I looked back over the data from the nearest PWS that has reliable temperature data that reflects what I've seen in town. So far this summer: June: 4 mornings...coldest 44° 6/15 July: 4 mornings...coldest 43° 7/25 August: 4 mornings...coldest 42° 8/16 May also featured lows in the 40s on the 25th, 26th, and 31st. I think down in town there may have actually been another one or two mornings where we briefly dipped to 48-49°. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 It's not felt like summer ... all summer. Pretty much anywhere really. My parents are a good 8 or 9 degrees below average in temperate for June, July and August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NortheastPAWx Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 This has been a very ho-hum summer. I don't miss 90/70+ but it's just felt like we've been on autopilot most of the way.

Eskimo Joe Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 My garden is basically shot. We dipped to 49 degrees Saturday and Sunday morning and the tomatoes are just about to rage quit on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 So we're traveling to Norway in 13 days. If Bardarbunga erupts we're screwed. Any ideas for alternative last-minute vacations if we can't take a TATL flight? We want somewhere that's not warm really and want to get out of the NE.

The rain has been killing us here...lost all my cherokee purples to blight. 1.52" yesterday and around an inch so far today. One of the wettest JJA periods on record in State College.

MAG5035 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Well it's been a pretty quiet summer and I've been rather busy.. but I have some excitement to post about. Pretty much got handed a storm chase on a silver platter Thursday afternoon when i was in the Punxsutawney area and this developed. I shot up the road 5 miles to Big Run to intercept the storm and got some great videos of a wall cloud with some rotation. NWS Pittsburgh ended up verifying an EF-0 further northwest in the central part of the county (right around the hook echo portion of the above radar capture). Overall it was a fairly weak spinup and not very prominent on the velocity imagery, but still some crazy stuff. Radar at time of the video with an arrow indicating the direction I was filming.

P.S.: Good reporting skills, allowing the event to speak for itself. Sometimes people talk too much in these types of videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
