ply33 Posted October 3, 2001 Share Posted October 3, 2001 If you don't like all the pop up ads and graphics on PeterG's for Hershey weather link, try you tax dollar supported sites:<P> <A HREF="http://205.156.54.206/er/ctp/" TARGET=_blank>http://205.156.54.206/er/ctp/</A> and <A HREF="http://205.156.54.206/er/ctp/digital/066wk.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://205.156.54.206/er/ctp/digital/066wk.htm</A><P>Been a long time since I've been in that area, so I am probably wrong on which county to select for the weather...<p>[ 10-03-2001: Message edited by: ply33 ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 3, 2001 Share Posted October 3, 2001 Well you won't need your sunglasses most of Hershey Week but the weather will be very typical. Click on this for the 15 day forecast: <A HREF="http://www.accuweather.com/adcbin/6to15day_local.asp?rdyahoo=1&thiszip=17057&partner=yahoo" TARGET=_blank>http://www.accuweather.com/adcbin/6to15day_local.asp?rdyahoo=1&thiszip=17057&partner=yahoo</A> <P> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 3, 2001 Share Posted October 3, 2001 I, personally, find just a 5 day forecast somewhat unreliable. To use a 15 day forecast is out of the question.<P>Any forecast over 3 days is usually useless.<P>Regards, Peter J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novaman Posted October 3, 2001 Author Share Posted October 3, 2001 ply33, it is in Dauphin County. <A HREF="http://205.156.54.206/er/ctp/digital/057wk.htm" TARGET=_blank>Dauphin County weather</A><p>[ 10-03-2001: Message edited by: novaman ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DugsSin Posted October 4, 2001 Share Posted October 4, 2001 A wide range of atmospheric conditions will again be experienced at Hershey. I will personally savor every moment of this event.<BR> Too Blessed to be Stressed. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 4, 2001 Share Posted October 4, 2001 Peter J. -<BR>Around here the talking weatherheads sometimes can't even get the forecast right when it's happening right outside their studio. But, that 15 day forecast looks just like what actually has happened at Hershey many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 4, 2001 Share Posted October 4, 2001 Ted. How are you? Hope all is well.<P>I agree with your analysis. Guess I take a wait-and-see approach. I live about 1 hour from Hershey. Can't count how many times these forecasters jump up and down on a bible that we'll get 8 inches of snow tomorrow, only to have nothing (and vice-versa). Every year, we all get this pre-Hershey hype, for the most part, we all show up, clean the cars when we get home, have a good time, etc., etc.<P>Take care. Peter J.

novaman Posted October 4, 2001 Author Share Posted October 4, 2001 This isn't all about the weather. This year it's about gambling. We're gonna take bets on how deep the mud gets in the Lemon field. <P>Lets see now... I need a bookie for this job..um...Sal where are you?

oldeekar Posted October 4, 2001 Share Posted October 4, 2001 I dont think the weather has much to do with what Hershey is all about.There are things that I see and find at that show that I will never find anywhere else. A rainy day at Hershey is better than just about any other day of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randjflo60 Posted October 7, 2001 Share Posted October 7, 2001 We have had very little rain recently and a lot of wind yesterday and today so the yellow field should be as good as ever. It is supposed to get into the 30's tonight and Monday night and be cool all week so bring your woolies along. There is just a chance of scattered showers for Friday and Saturday. <P>This should be an excellent Hershey Week.<P> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novaman Posted October 8, 2001 Author Share Posted October 8, 2001 As time is drawing nearer it is looking better. I can deal with cold. After today I don't need to slide in the mud. My back is messing up on me again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fordee9r (Ron Springstead) Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 I forcast daytime temperatures in the high 60's to low 70's with night time temps in the '50s. There may be a chance of scattered showers on Friday or Saturday. <P>My forcast is NOT based on inside National Weather Service information (that reliability has already been addressed), it is based on the fact that I will not be able to attend Hershey this year. <P>It seems to work out that, years that I can attend, the rains come. Years that I have to stay home, the sun comes out! <P>Anyone interested in taking up a collection to pay me to stay away next year and years to come? <P>Hope you all enjoy my good weather and find many bargains!

Guest Posted October 8, 2001 Share Posted October 8, 2001 Ron ~ I stayed away last year and it rained like all get out. I'm staying home this year and if the weather is great, that will be proof that I am not the groundhog of Hershey. You probably aren't either ~ hvs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Bond Posted October 9, 2001 Share Posted October 9, 2001 If the weather guessers are like are like around here, then dont worry. I discovered a major problem recently when driving past the National Weather Center station in Wakefield Va - there are no windows on the building! How can anyone effectively tell the weather when they can't see it??? The weather? - enjoy it, it's the only weather youve got! See ya at Hershey (rain or shine!)<BR>Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordee9r (Ron Springstead) Posted October 14, 2001 Share Posted October 14, 2001 OK... some of you should be getting home by now and I need to know... How was the weather at Hershey? Who's forcast was closer... mine or the NWS? <P>Were all the bargains in the Yellow Field again this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DugsSin Posted October 14, 2001 Share Posted October 14, 2001 Ron the weather on Saturday was beyond perfect. Sunny,high 60's to low 70's, very few clouds, no chance of rain, slight breeze, it was actually dusty in the parking lot by the school? on the hill. <BR> I was there from 6:30am till 4:30 and this was the day all others will be measured by.<BR> The show was pretty darn good too! <BR> Doug BCA #33850 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John N. Packard Posted October 15, 2001 Share Posted October 15, 2001 I was at Hershey from Monday through Saturday and the weather was perfect each day. It was a great event. Nothing in the world can match it.<P>jnp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novaman Posted October 15, 2001 Author Share Posted October 15, 2001 oh well. That's why I don't bet and don't play poker. <P>it was great weather. Maybe by fretting over the rain the weather changed to prove us wrong. <P>Anyone want to buy a bridge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
