Have we even had six weeks of winter to begin with? Feels like late fall/early spring with a few snowy days thrown in.

I think I recall a day or two where it got down to the low 20's. Does that count?

SE? because up this way we had -8 with a real feel of -35 for a couple days and that was enough winter for me!

Six more weeks of what we've had so far seems...bearable?

Don’t be so sure he’s a western PA guy… but seriously I think Phil will be happy with any PA team winning

I'm in my thirties and when I was a kid we had winter, all-winter. The freak warm days would come once a season.

Now the whole season is freak warm days.

If you have the opportunity to sabotage a private jet, you should do it.

Same here. Blizzard every couple of years and bitter cold. I like the warmer weather, but it's kinda scary. All fun and games until PA is a coastal state.

On the plus side - shark fishing in the Allegheny, if things get crazy enough. Braeburn Beach could become a bonefish flat.

Sure, millions or billions will die, but the fishing!

I know, I'm 50 now and in my teens and early 20s we were lucky to have one or two warm days all winter. I feel like snow was on the ground at least half of the winter.

I'm in the Poconos. It's going to be really cold the next few days, then back up to near 50. If that's what 6 more weeks means, I'll take it.

Yup. Just moved up here last summer and was all prepared. Now I’m looking around like Vince Vega in Pulp Fiction.

The good thing is he's only right 40% of the time. After Saturday swpa is forcast to be close to 50 degrees for about ten days.

When is winter gonna start?

Middle_Aged_Mayhem t1_j6x0hcs wrote

So, since he's right only 40% of the time, isn't it more likely to be an early spring?

Puzzleheaded-Yard891 t1_j6wxt5r wrote

Winter haha... It isn't winter if your best snowfall was a dusting that lasted an hour.... By far the mildest winter I've seen in 39 years....

Where the hell are the 2+ ft blizzards at??

You know... Reading all these comments of "we haven't had a winter yet" cool it guys. It's still February. I don't want all of us to jinx it and get 4' dumped on us in 2 weeks.

You watch your mouth, that lovely member of the Marmota Monax is a state treasure. Sure he is wrong more often than a coin flip, but what do you expect from him. He's like 100+ years old

They'll take away your right to have a PA driver's license if you keep going around saying things like that! They'll kick you out and make you live in a neighboring state! ;)

If winter is just six more weeks of rain and 40 degree weather, how will we know when spring gets here?

That would align with the celestial sequence of seasons. I believe the spring equinox is March 20th. Who gets advice from a ground dwelling rodent anyways? All woodchucks do is ruin my garden. No sanctuary for woodchucks.

Phil is wrong most of the time, so it's always safe to assume the opposite of whatever he says is true.

So like 6 more weeks of 40 degrees and breezy or like actual winter?

Friend: “It seems like sometimes he tries to bite them when they hold him” Me: “Imagine you’re asleep. Perfect-comfy. In your bed. Basically on vacation and don’t have fuck all to do til spring. Suddenly, some dickhead in a top hat nabs your ass and drags you out into the light. Cameras flashing. People and noises everywhere. Idk about you, but I’m trying to bite him 100% of the time.”

StaticNegative t1_j70pw40 wrote

from Feb 2nd to the first day of spring is about 6 weeks. so Phil is correct.
