Forecasting for showers and thunderstorms, especially when it has been very dry can be very difficult. This week is a perfect example! There is an upper-level low pressure system over the Ohio Valley that will sit and spin over the next few days. A cool pool of air in the upper atmosphere if you will, cut-off from the jetstream. In this ...

Personally, I think you noticed it more last Sunday and Monday because not only was it windy, but it was sunny and warm so most people were enjoying the outdoors. It's nothing unusual, especially this time of year. April and May are transition months and Mother nature is trying to bring some warmer air into Central PA by bringing the Pacific Jet ...

Joan I'm glad that you are doing better and out of the hospital. You probably won't have snow for your birthday but we could get some on April16th!!! My wife and children are doing great and thanks for asking. Take Care. Shane

I love it, finally someone that isn't complaining! You are a true optimist!

Well, I bet you are loving this December! We've been in the 50s since Sunday with more to come. By the way, last year on this day the high was only 19 and we hit a record low 4! What a difference a year makes!

Of course, that doesn't mean we can't get any hurricanes past that date; last year's banner season surely proved that! But the waters in the Atlantic are cooling off, and cooler water

Roxi, I hoping for a weak El Nino too and yes it was Christmas 2002! That Christmas we received about 7-9 inches of snow, good memory and congrats on your first child, probably a big boy or girl now. Take Care

Roxy, that's like asking when the first measureable snow will fall?? It's arbitrary and there is no computer models that will figure it out for you. For long-range forecasting like that we can only forecast trends such as, above or below normal temperatures and above or below normal precipitation.This winter if there is a strong El Nino we will ...

Joanie,      You must be from Franklin County, maybe Waynesboro or Chambersburg, I'm just guessing because you said you've been watching not only in PA. Thanks for the funny e-mail though I enjoyed, sorry about the late reply, I hadn't checked this forum until This Morning. I like the saying there are two seasons in Central PA,
