Central PA Winter 25/26 Discussion and Obs

[Superstorm]

I got down to 3.6F but the winds never went calm so no robust radiation cooling.

Busted way high.  7 was my low.  

[Blizzard of 93]

Low of 4 in Marysville. My coldest morning of the season so far.

Skies went overcast in parts of the state, plus a light breeze that helped to keep temperatures up a bit.

Similar deal here.  Got to exactly 0 at 3:00 AM but then rose to 5 when a little breeze came through.  Now back to 2.  

Local WU site bottomed at -1.7 at 7:20.  

Even with geothermal, looks like a $300 electric bill next month.  First time in the 26 years we've lived here.

Got down to -1.1 on the York station and -3.1 on the Mount Joy station.

Low of 5 here. Winds and clouds have been just fickle enough throughout recent nights to prevent total bottoming out, and have also lead to some unusual times for the lows.

Accuweather had -9 for me when I woke up and checked the AM. Was -6 yesterday AM. 

Still shows -5 on NWS page. I know it sure seemed like the coldest night so far by the way the furnace ran all night.

What gives? I'm overcast and actually have some very light snow/flurries falling here in Tamaqua.

Ensembles all look active with Winter Storm chances from later this week through the end of their 15 or 16 day runs.

My low was 6.6. As I mentioned yesterday morning, I was concerned about cloud  over overnight.

It's been a very cold week. Sub-freezing temps wall to wall. And yet despite the fresh snow cover from last Sunday's storm this week fell quite short of modeled low temps here. My temp never fell below 5 degrees. That's at least a double digit departure about what at least some models indicated. I think it was @CarlislePaWx who shared an image last week showing MDT getting down to -19 this morning.
