Central PA Winter 25/26 Discussion and Obs

Low of 18. My pack has barely shrunk a millimeter this week. Tomorrow should do some work though.

Our Climate Watch Fearless Forecast calls for no more than 5 of the next 28 days to feature high temperatures 8º or more below average. And not as dry in Pennsylvania as recent weeks.

I want to make it known just how rare these past 19 days have been. KMDT has had snow on the ground since 1/25. Adding up snow depths we get 111" or an average of 5.84"; but never more than 9". When looking at the past
In the last 126 years of data, this specific "steady but deep" condition has only occurred in 4 winter seasons:
​1905
​1925
​1961
​1968

Usually to get to 19 days requires a big boy storm. This has been a throwback winter in a way.

Sunny with highs near freezing today. We then turn a bit milder over the weekend with highs near average not too far from 40 degrees. A slight chance of some light snow by Sunday night before a nice warm-up toward the middle of next week. We will see highs well into the 40's. Rain chances increase again by Wednesday and we will trend colder again by next weekend.
