Wow for a while today, especially this morning it really put the rain down. We had some heavy downpours here in central Pennsylvania. Over an inch and a half in the rain guage. Now what we need is a little bit of a break and we will get it for Saturday. A front moved south of us this evening and will move off the Atlantic seaboard overnight.… Continue

I recorded a low of 93 one morning a few years ago...and while I have also had a high of 117, that low temperature is still more impressive to me.

The night sky produced an extra opportunity to look up… Continue
