Got to love when THV comes in with the coldest official temp in the state, as it did last night with a low of 37.  Speaks to the uniquely abnormal nature of that location.  #Inversion

Was 37 in Washington, PA as well: National Weather Service : Observed Weather for past 3 Days : Washington - Washington County Airport

Drought map will be out tomorrow in case the whole thing fails, and we end up sunny! 
I fully expect it to far excel expectations in annoyance, duration, while minimally meeting the lowest possible vesible amount possible for such duration and annoyance

I was going off of CTP's summary of all ASOS/AWOS sites that they release twice daily.  I believe these are what you would refer to as "first-order" stations, no?

I had no intention of looking up every other climate site in the state.  Why is Washington Airport not included on this list?

It's in a little low spot right on rt. 30. The aircraft fly right over 30 and low. Helicopters take off a couple hundred feet from the road. It's always been a cold spot. I  remember when I  lived 2 miles north of BWI how incredibly colder it was than BWI on clear, cold nights. I'm now only about 12 or 13 miles away from it as the crow flies and have only been lower a handfull of times in the last 4 years.

0.04" for 20 hours, drizzle for an additional 10, socked in clouds for additional 6. We see sun for 20 mins at sunset Sunday night.

What is the proper answer here...oh, it is the Nam at range, but one cannot deny that the trend is not our friend as to heavy rain.   The Nam does produce more rain Sat night but not in the couple to several inch ranges I saw some maps showing.

Absolutely on trend for total washout still, haha. Worst of both worlds.

Bubbler, you got your 70's at MDT yesterday.  Mby yard max was 66.6 and THV was 69. Air was dry and that, along with few clouds, allowed temps to jump. 

Yea, just barely. Was closer than I thought it would be.  I think today they breach 70 and go higher and still think Friday is on the table as well though not as confident on Friday.    MDT actually ended the day AN yesterday...by .3.

@mahantango#1 I am surprised you are not posting about your mid fall warm spell yesterday and the next couple days.  

Well I was enjoying it. But I was in my barn painting. So I only have limited time to paint as it will get too cold to paint soon. Today or tomorrow I will be mowing and taking care of leaves that fell again.

I don't have enough fingers and toes to count the times that scenario occurred in my lifetime.

Rain all weekend, then clearing at sunset on Sunday, then a glorious, cloud free Monday.
