Yardstickgozinya Posted yesterday at 09:29 AM Share Posted yesterday at 09:29 AM I think most of us realize expansion this time of year is many times the likely outcome . I wonder if anybody here could figure out the likelihood of spc expansions versus, reduction versus a consistent forecast in the final 24 and 8 hours before zero hour.

That's an interesting point and something I was thinking about last week - very rarely does SPC scale back on their outlooks until the event has passed any given area of the country. I honestly can't remember it happening though I'm sure it has. Very high percentage of the time the map gets expanded, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mount Joy Snowman Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Low of 45. Nice day today, followed by another solid rainfall tonight, and then some downright cold days tomorrow and Saturday. Onward. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago To those that celebrate....welcome to Phillies Opening Day!! Go Phillies! It will be a beautiful spring day today with highs reaching the 70's. Shower chances increase tonight into tomorrow morning. Much colder tomorrow with temperatures falling during the day and falling below freezing tomorrow night. Saturday will be the coldest day of the weekend with highs barely escaping the 30's. We moderate back to near normal temperatures by Sunday. Go Phillies!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something else that hasn't happened much at all recently...the rainfall amounts for tonight have actually trended upwards over the past 24-48 hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago Happy Opening day to any and all baseball fans. I have tickets for exactly 35 games so far between Baltimore, Philly, Pittsburgh, Detroit and Chicago. Gotta get my fix in now with the lockout looming... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny, I was actually thinking about including your name in the post because, I realized we've been on the same level atleat in the terms of this topic. But then I figured I better not speak for @Itstrainingtime. There has been days i've gotten up and to check, and it's been scaled back.But it's very few and far between and it's generally done in the early morning update. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mahantango#1 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Andrea Michaels FOX43 PA’s latest Drought Monitor Update was released earlier this morning, with some notable improvements for portions of the Commonwealth! Northeast PA saw the most improvement—going from D0 (Abnormally Dry) conditions to nothing! This includes much of the Endless Mountains, the northern Poconos, and part of the Wyoming Valley. Some of the Middle Susquehanna River area saw improvements from D1 (Moderate Drought) to D0. This includes portions of Centre, Clinton, Snyder, Northumberland, and Union counties. Not much change unfortunately for South Central PA, but we’ve got some decent rain coming tonight! And there will be more opportunities next week too for needed rain. As long as this keeps up, we’ll get there. Patience is key. Climate conditions like this take time to fix if you’re not getting a single, big rain event.
