Pennsylvania plays host to some fascinating weather patterns. It's the sort of place where you can start your day using the heat and end it with the A/C running. This month has been no different, full of sunny days & mild temperatures. Next we got some rain, and yesterday forecasters began to tell us we'd see
snow today. I never believe snow predictions when I hear them and this time was certainly no different. When I was a kid I'd get all revved up hearing
snow, snow, snow - getting big dreams of a snow day only to wake up to nary a flake on the ground. Not the case this morning. Not only was it snowing like crazy, but it was
laying on the ground. Imagine that, the forecast was accurate. You can't really blame me for being a non-believer since the last time we had measurable snow in October was 1972, same year Hurricane Agnes dumped large amounts of rain on our state. Here we are nearly 40 years later - Irene flooded the midstate and we had several inches of snow. Perhaps I should investigate the winter of '72 so I know what to expect this winter!
