Most models now keep most of the light snow chance tomorrow night just to our south, but a dusting to coating from the turnpike south is still on the table for now.

The Euro continued to be enthused about the Friday Clipper chance, bringing 1 to 2 inches of snow to most of CTP again this run.

It isn't even totally frozen in the picture! I think we would need below zero weather, highs as well as lows for a week solid in order for it to freeze enough for any kind of an attempt

Sorry, I didn't see your post about it.

Low of 13. Mid week threat looking marginal at best, even down this way. Phil sees his shadow, six more weeks of winter!

I didn't know it was safe. Thanks for letting me know. I'm almost half way across the river now just above Dock Street dam.

My friends and I were  walking on the Susquehanna River back in 1977 when we were teenagers. We erected a makeshift monument out of tires and some type of flag in the middle of the river, that was visible to the people in Dalmatia and to anyone traveling rt .147. We got a little over halfway across the river and we encountered thin ice in swifter water and turned around and got off the river. Those were the days, I got to do it with no regard for safety.

I guess if we read about @sauss06being called in to fish somebody out of the river, we can all expect to be ordered to issue a statement.
