Having trashbags for the possibility of rain is a good idea, Marty. As I recall, last Spring York's Friday forecast for "a period of brief late afternoon intermittant showers" turned into something more than that. Was more like a steady and at times downpour, especially when leaving and driving eastbound on the PA turnpike.

Weather forecasting (especially a week away), albeit vastly improved from years gone by is still not an exact science.

I could not find York climate on a quick search.  Did find Harrisburg, PA.  It appears that Harrisburg gets about 108 days of Sunshine per year.  Pretty good chance it will be cloudy and maybe wet.   Having just returned from the great South West you have to appreciated the green and definite lack of crop circles.  I would venture a guess that still most farming in PA is done without irrigation.  Recent trip/hike of the Grand Canyon was the hottest I've ever done.  A true appreciation for sun ray incident angle and shade, much different here in PA.   3 weeks back in PA, I think I have most of the dust out of my ears.  That first rain storm was a true delight.  We did have an overcast day hiking out to the North rim of the Canyon.  Talking to people who spent the rain event on the North Rim, apparently it rained all night.  None of that rain made it to any of the trail we hiked out on.  A lot of Great South West rain, never makes the ground. 

Enough wasted internet space this morning.

Lake Mead/Hoover Dam could use an easy additional 120 ft of water. Note the bath-tub ring.  From the O'Callaghan, Tillman bridge observation deck.

             Here is your forecast for October 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th 2014

 

The various halls will be dry and flatulent with isolated halitosis.

There is an increased chance of garlic breath later in the day for all 4 days and a risk of BO by the weekend.

Scattered foot odor is also a possibility.

This has been your York Fairgrounds AccuWeather forecast.
