While waiting for York to start, here's some crystal-ball data from the US National Weather Service about what to expect weather wise, via its 8-to-14-day outlook for the period through April 27. There is some confidence among the meteorologists that during meet week this year the weather may be a bit warmer than average for York (yay), and also a bit wetter than average (boo). This is of course only what the jet stream etc predicts, and may be way off by the time we hit the ground in southern PA.
The long term forecast link, so you can check back as we get closer: http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/p.../predictions/814day/
Some more data on what York averages for late April look like:
Average Daytime temperature: 67 degrees.
Average Nighttime temperature: 42 degrees
On average, 12 days per month in the April/May timeframe see precipitation.
If you personally "don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows" etc,. just kindly disregard this message.
