Pennsylvania’s second-biggest lake drowned a whole valley to make 52 miles of shoreline

Lake Wallenpaupack stretches 13 miles through the Pocono Mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania, and you can spend a full weekend here without running out of water to cover. The lake sits near the town of Hawley, right where Pike and Wayne counties meet, and it holds more than 5,700 acres of open water with 52 miles of shoreline cutting in and out of coves.

Can Centre County expect its first snowfall this weekend? What to know

Centre County has enjoyed an unusually warm fall, but that appears to be coming to an end — at least for a weekend. Temperatures in the State College area are predicted to approach freezing Friday night and dip below freezing at around 26 degrees Saturday night. But, despite early forecast models that prematurely predicted several inches of snow, AccuWeather meteorologist Alex DaSilva said there likely won’t be any significant snowfall in Happy Valley. It’s still possible, DaSilva said, that State College might technically record its first snowfall of the year Friday into Saturday. But, with minimal precipitation, he’s projecting it would likely amount to one-tenth of an inch or a trace of snow, the latter of which would technically not qualify as the season’s first snowfall because it must be a measurable amount. “I’m not ruling that out,” DaSilva told the CDT, referring to a measurable one-tenth of an inch. “I just don’t think people should expect to wake up Saturday morning, look outside and see white.” Last year, the first measurable snowfall came Nov. 10 at a half-inch. In 2024, it was Nov. 24. And, in 2023, it was Halloween on Oct. 31. If locals don’t experience a measurable

What Pennsylvania Law Says About Burning Leaves In Your Yard

A pile of crunchy maple leaves can be perfectly legal to burn in one town and against the rules a few miles away. That patchwork surprised me the first time I looked into it. State environmental rules in Pennsylvania focus heavily on smoke, and some valley regions face much tighter limits than rural hillsides.

Centre County farms work to offset losses after spring freeze left little fruit to pick

In early April, temperatures in central Pennsylvania climbed well above normal and hit 85 degrees. During this brief moment of warmth, the apple trees on Harner Farm grew their flower buds in white and pink, two weeks ahead of schedule. Then cold weather came overnight on April 20. By morning, a freeze had settled across several East Coast states. In Centre County, temperatures fell into the 20s. Since the warmth forced Harner Farm’s flowers to bloom early, just a few hours coated in the freeze was enough to destroy every single one, said Chris Harner, its owner. Not a single tree grew an apple to pick — a similar reality for many farms across the state. Last week, $10 million in state disaster relief grants were issued to 319 Pennsylvania fruit growers in 48 counties to help offset the losses. Harner Farm was bought by Harner’s grandfather in 1945. Though it’s grappled with weather damaging its crops before, the current owner said it hasn’t faced this kind of total devastation in over 30 years. This fall, local, college students and a few regulars still visited the farm to browse pumpkins too heavy to carry and take photos near the sweet
