Matt Harwood Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Mr. Earl, you know the first rule of Hershey is that you don't talk about the weather. The second rule of Hershey is YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT THE WEATHER. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Moskowitz Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Lamar, we ordered the weather from accuweather. Better deal! Actually, it is my go to weather app for this area. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starfireelvis Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 The forecast literally changes every single day. Last week things for Hershey week were perfect. Then it was going to rain every day. Then this morning (9/30, see screen shot below), every day from Tuesday through Saturday (10/5-10/9) only had a 24% chance of rain each day (not 23% or 25%, don’t ask me why. And now, we are currently back to rain on several days. You’re better off flipping a coin, it seems… 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenie Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 All you need to know is SAM made a right and headed out to sea. The rest is just weather. Get ready for Hershey. Pack an umbrella and you won’t use it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I watch the local news, its a bit far out yet so who knows. BUT, as of this morning it looks like chance of rain the first part of the week, then clearing. Bring your winter jacket for the morning, T shirt for afternoon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClayDBH Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 So after leaving from Hershey one year ( just shopping) I went to Bird Of Hand to pick up a piece I bought and the Amish kid that I was buying it from told me these wise words..... ”Children who lie grow up to be weathermen” 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobileparts Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 It will be very very wet (I don't use the "r" word), But there will be NO TRUDGING through mud in the Yellow Field !!! Hallelujah!!! It is HERSHEY---- so it Is GREAT !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

46 woodie Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 HERSHEY has it's own weather systems. I haven't missed a year since 1968 and have seen everything from snow flurries, torrential rain, 30 degree cold to 90 degree heat and some or the most perfect days for walking the flea market. I have framed on my garage wall, the weather map from the USA Today newspaper dated Friday, October 2nd 2011. The entire east cost was clear except a dime sized green dot over HERSHEY that did not move. There was 9.5 inches of rain in two days and made for a miserable HERSHEY. So prepare fore the worst and hope for the best of weather. It's the literature guy's that really take a beating when it rains. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkhammer Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Looking better! Cloudy with rain chances appearing to diminish! Comfy temps! Hoping for the best but hey, a bad weather day at the Hershey swap meet is better than a good day at work! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt G Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I am guessing most of us are concerned about the weather being dry so we can walk around and look to spend $ on used car and truck parts that were obsolete 50 years ago. But I now think what about all our fellow "comrades in arms" that are also looking at the weather for Saturday when the show is on and they want to put the vehicle that they have spent days and weeks on to look its best to put on the show field, not just to perhaps win a award but also to give all the rest of us the chance to enjoy first hand and in person. THANK YOU TO ALL who make the effort. Walt 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Harwood Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Since all of you are obsessed with the weather, I'll tell you that the weather I get at home today is the weather Hershey gets tomorrow. Right now it is gray and raining, which it has been doing for three days now. I may post updates as they evolve. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Harwood Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 (edited) Cold, gray, and foggy here southeast of Cleveland. We'll see if the day improves and sends better weather towards Hershey for tomorrow. My youngest son, Riley, and I are rolling out this afternoon in the Audi ute so we'll be there first thing in the morning to unload the truck with our car corral vehicles and to get a jump on things. Hoping to buy a car early and get it into inventory ASAP. Edited October 5, 2021 by Matt Harwood (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass is Best Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Never talk about the Hershey weather forecast. Just prepare for everything from -30 to 110 degrees. Rain, Snow, Sleet, Hail, Earthquakes and Volcanos. Pack t-shirts, sweatshirts, sweaters, jackets, coats and full snowmobile gear. Pack a snowmobile, bear mace, signal flares and a snickers bar. Be ready for anything and have fun. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_S_in_Penna Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 The forecasts posted over several days show the inaccuracy of long-term forecasts: The predicted Saturday car-show temperatures have varied by at least 10 degrees! Well, by predicting everything, the weatherman will be able to point to one of them as right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAKerry Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 As long as it stays ok for tomorrow! Mr. Earl, looks like a pretty nice settup but I dont see the weber! I heard a weather man talking to a morning radio show a few years ago. He said that weather could be predicted about 90% up to 2 days. With each day after its just an educated guess. As much as things have progressed technologically I still usually wait until the day I get up to see what the weather will be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobileparts Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Gray skies all week so far, Friday to be a repeat... Dry, Dry, Dry !!! 70° all three (3) days, so far, 60 ° all three (3) nights... Truthfully, I think we can all agree, these two (2) weeks at Fall Carlisle and HERSHEY have been better than any year EVER weather wise.... Wish we could have had our foreigners --- Tomas from Sweden was the ONLY Swede here --- and I serviced Nazeem from Israel today.... That was 2 of 30,000.... (Certainly affected sales in a serious negative fashion --- oh, well.... we move on...) Yours, Craig.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobileparts Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) I met Mr. Lamar Earl, our moderator, today at HERSHEY... I thought he was a Great Guy, and got proven correct !!! It is indeed special to talk face to face with those we only have a distant relationship with on these forums. Getting to talk in person is like putting the pieces of a puzzle together, and seeing it to completion. That is part of what makes events like Fall Carlisle and HERSHEY so extra special !!! For those who don't make it a regular event --- Your life will be so much better by joining us next year.... Off to beddy bye, On to Chocolate World in the A.M. and to the # 1 show on planet Earth.... please, GOD, one more glorious weather day !!! ZZZzzz.

Larry Schramm Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 I will take that weather every Hershey. It was perfect in my mind. Not raining, not freezing cold, no hot sun beating down all day long, just a comfortable three/four days. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
