YORK, PA WEATHER as of 10/13.

Thank you, Eddie G. Thanks very much.

IMO the determining factor in weather comfort is the wind - how much and how strong. Wind is my least favorite weather, reaching right into me and sucking the energy out.

Friday and Saturday: 61 and sunny, chilly at night. Normal temps 66/42.

Excellent! Thank you Eddie. No snow in the forecast, so no reason to complain.

Excellent!

EDDIE,

  The weather guessers can't get it right down here 24 hours in advance.  So what makes you think this is set in stone?  Time will tell? 

I'll check the weather on Wed before I leave early Thursday morning.  That's when I decide what to pack.  Checking the weather two weeks in advance is a fool's errand, no chance that isn't going to change.

Regardless of forecast, be prepared for any temp from 80 to 30, sun, wind, sleet, rain.  And if you're driving through the mountains, fog and snow.

The weather report completely changes every day. I don't think they have clue till about 1 day before, and sometimes not even then.

Seems like an American tradition to say the weatherman doesn't know what he's talking about, yet I find they do a pretty good job, considering all the variables involved...of course, I also think the US Post Office is great, too!

But that's just me...

It's not the weatherman that's the problem, it's the totally unpredictable weather!

Tonight's forecast: gathering clouds then dark.

"Yay! We got one right!!"   

Tonight's forecast: gathering clouds then dark.

And a chance of scrapple in the morning?

Sure hope they can hold on to this forecast, with all the rain we've been having, this looks like a dream!   Too bad it's too far in advance to believe it.

Have fun guys, looking forward to the reports

Like when my sister, her two girls and I went to Yellowstone a bunch of years ago in late May. They were calling for sun, and nice temperatures. She checked the weather again a day before we were supposed to catch our flight and it changed to really cold and windy with snow. Our first day was beautiful, but by nightfall it snowed. The next day was extremely windy, cold, and some snow which tapered off. After that it was cold but getting warmer. Last few days were very pleasant like mid to late spring days. You just never know.

You just don't go to Yellowstone in May. We went the last week in June this year. There was still 12' of snow at 13,000' on the Beartooth Hwy. People were skiing at the top. The Beartooth Hwy is the NE entrance  to Yellowstone.

Well Eddie, it was still a great time despite one day of great wind and snow. We had such a great time regardless of the weather. One of the highlights was the morning at the Old Faithful Inn. The bison coming through the fog, it was phenomenal. I'd do it again, but in time for the Tetons to be open.

Dave, glad you were able to still have a good time.

I predict that it will be bright, comfortable and dry inside the Halls.  Please dress accordingly!

My advice is not to wear shorts on Thursday...high 53 (14 below normal), and low 33 (this could be a first frost). Friday 59/48. 

Perfect Fall York weather!

I am ready!

Way better than it could be, and occasionally has been!   From all the wet weather we've seen lately, it's a bit surprising that the forecast is for dry days until Saturday!

Weather is great. I got to wear my coat in the morning, and my sweatshirt during the day. I am sure tonight/tomorrow will be cool again, so out comes the coat.
