It's PA Farm Show weather time!

In almost 50 years of recorded weather history during the PA FARM SHOW; believe it or not a snow total of only 110 inches has fallen, most of which has been in very small amounts. The EXCEPTION to this of course was the blizzard of 1996 where it snowed 24.4 inches! Now that was quite a snowstorm and accounts for almost 1/4 of the 50 year snowfall recorded total.

IS the PA Farm Show "synonymous" with snow, sleet and/or freezing rain? We'll leave that for you to ponder on and decide. What we can offer as evidence is that February is typically our WORST snow, sleet and freezing rain weather month here in Central Pennsylvania; so with that being said, we are more likely to get a snowstorm or ice storm during the Eastern Sports & Outdoors Show which is held in February than we are to encounter a freak storm such as the blizzard of 96' in January.
