Impressive early December cold: Low of 8º this morning at the PSU COOP site in State College is the lowest this early in the season since 1989.

Nowhere near a daily record though (-1º in 1917) #pawx

We've already had 8 sub-50º mornings on campus at Penn State since the beginning of August. That's the most up to this point in September since 1994. We haven't seen this many cool, crisp mornings at this time of year in a few decades.

A weather rarity in #StateCollege #pawx. May had 22 days with measurable precip, tying the record for any month since 1893.

The only other months with 22 days of measurable precip also happened to be Mays -- in 2003 and 1908

Hello from State College, PA

After another 1.35" of rain in #StateCollege through 8AM, we're up to 5.56" for the month so far.

This is by far the wettest start to April to date. Even without another drop of rain this month, we would finish with a top 15 wettest April. #pawx

Four-day rain total of 4.09" in #StateCollege -- an immense amount for meteorological spring.

The last time we had a wetter four-day period in spring was April 1948! We won't need many more April showers this month... #pawx
