Dear Pennsylvania Weather, Get It Together

STOP.

Dear Pennsylvania Weather, Get It Together
@rooney_the_schneagle

Dear weather,

Please stop acting out of season. We're are honestly tired of this. On the western side of the state, we had one day of 50 degree weather and then got slammed with snow for the first and second days of spring. We do not appreciate this.

The eastern side of the state just got hit so hard that schools let out early. This is supposed to be spring. I want to wear all of my cute clothes, not go stomping through the slushy streets in my puffer coat that makes me look like a giant marshmallow. We are honestly sick of this.

A few weeks ago, we had really nice weather, and that was great.

A few days it was warm enough to go outside without a heavy coat on. I would really appreciate going back to that sort of weather. As a college student, I cannot do anything without leaving my dorm room, so having the weather nice enough that I won't break my neck when I step outside really helps.

It's hard enough lugging all of my books around. I really don't need the extra challenge of three inches of slush on the sidewalks because it is impossible for my campus to keep the sidewalks clear when it is snowing so hard.

What would be desperately appreciated would be a few weeks of mild weather.

Rain is understandable.

It is spring, after all. Give us some time to start planting flowers. Let the sun shine often. It would be nice if we could keep those biting winds down to a minimum. Then, we could work our way up to some nice 70 degree days in maybe two or three weeks. We could really use that.

The winter blues are really bogging us down.

It's hard enough that all of us college students just got through midterms, but the end of the semester is coming up fast, and that means finals and term papers, so this Seasonal Affective Disorder isn't going to be working for us anymore.

Thanks,

Everyone who lives in Pennsylvania

It was the second time this year after an historic geomagnetic storm in May 2024. Those Northern Lights were visible in Europe and North America, just like this latest rendition.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
