Clouds wrung themselves out i guess. lol In truth, it would be nice to see how those 10 winters looked like regarding major indicies (Enso etc) in relation to how we look as a low end Modoki Nino seems to be appearing more likely. I'm hoping none of the above have a similar data set. Appreciate the feedback. Nut The sample size is too small. Since 1950, 2004-05 would probably be the closest potential ENSO match.

I'm sitting at 57". Even though I'm only 4 miles outside of Mt. Joy, a couple of events they doubled my total, including the 8/31 deluge. I’m at 66.02” in Fairfield Adams County at my work (golf course). 15.96” for September. Around 60" for coop site in Cashtown. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voyager Posted September 29, 2018 58.74" in my bucket for the year so far. Should be quite easy to top 60 inches, and if the pattern holds, perhaps 65 inches by Dec 31st. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Itstrainingtime Posted September 30, 2018 What a head-scratching, horrific call to crush my hopes and dreams tonight. How do you NOT give #9 a chance to win the game? I will see that ill-advised handoff to Sanders in my dreams for days on end. This is true in any sport...with the game on the line, you give your play maker a chance to make a play. The ball (and the game) was literally taken out of Trace's hands. I know, I know...it's easy to 2nd guess things that don't work. My biggest beef is that Ohio State snuffed Sanders ALL night. They did very little to contain McSorley. He only rushed for 175 freaking yards. Being up 12 at home and losing makes the pain doubly bad. Being up 12 at home and losing to Ohio State is killing me. Thanks for letting me vent. We now resume weather talk and what promises to be a week of way above normal temperatures yet again. Joy in abundance tonight. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was one of the worst offensive play calls of all time in a crucial fourth down situation with the game on the line. What was Franklin thinking? As you said you let your playmaker, McSorley, throw the ball with the option to run for the first down. If he throws it to a receiver theres a chance for interference and an automatic first down. What a crushing loss but extra crushing losing to Ohio St and Urban Liar. Hes a dirtbag who protects abusers of women. Enough said Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Down 2 scores in that environment and coming back like that...I tip my cap to them for that. 12/30/2000 fellas...I went to bed that night to a forecast of 12"-24" of snow. Woke up excitedly at 6:00am to see the blizzard. Only problem was it was partly cloudy. One of the most cruelest disappointments personally and weather model failures in modern weather history.

canderson Posted September 30, 2018 Franklin isn’t really a big game coach, he lacks that skill in Xs abd Os. Penn State should quit the White Out stuff, they have a losing record when they do that. It’s much ado about nothing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whiteouts are always against the marquee team of the season 2. A handful of those games were in the lean years in the wake of the scandal when PSU was clearly overmatched in every way possible. 3. Agree 100% about Franklin. Great coach until game day, lol. It irked me the way he brought up player's grades in the post game press conference. Not cool.

donsutherland1 Posted October 2, 2018 Based on the latest guidance, Harrisburg could have a mean temperature of approximately 69° for the first week in October. That would place the first week of October 2018 among the ten warmest such weeks on record. Records go back to 1888. The 10 warmest first weeks in October are: 1. 74.4°, 1941 2. 72.6°, 1959 3. 71.0°, 2013 4. 70.6°, 2007 5. 70.2°, 1922 6. 70.1°, 1900 7. 69.8°, 1931 8. 69.1°, 1898 9. 69.0°, 1927 10. 68.8°, 1995 From among that set of years, both 1900 and 2007 went on to see October finish with an average monthly temperature of 60° or above. Only six years have had such warm Octobers. The six warmest years are: 1. 62.0°, 2007 2. 61.5°, 1984 3. 61.3°, 1947 4. 61.2°, 2017 5. 60.6°, 1900 6. 60.5°, 1971 Should 2018 finish with a 60° or higher mean temperature, 2017 and 2018 would be the first occurrence of consecutive years with such October warmth.

Awesome stuff Don, thank you! By the way, not sure about Harrisburg, but just down the road at Lancaster it was the 2nd warmest September on record.
