Winter weather in York

The winter weather is playing havoc on residents in southern PA especially those in the York area. I travelled to York earlier this week for a thermal inspection of only the exterior of a home.

Heat loss is seen through the infrared camera and to be sure the sun's thermal loading wasn't going to be a factor, I arrived before sunrise. The three hour drive was long but the benefits of my thermal report far outweighs any inconvenience I endure because of the drive. I'm glad I brought my boots and bibbed overalls because I needed them. I walked around this home knee-deep in snow. The roof was mostly obscured with deep snow and the western end of the roof had huge drifts hanging over just waiting for some unsuspecting victim to walk under--that could be a cold ordeal!

Yesterday, as most know and are experiencing, another huge snowfall arrived and dumped another 24 inches of snow in that area! Now the wind has picked up so this snowfall is turning into drifts many feet high. I'm glad I was able to do this thermal inspection, but I empathize with the York residents, as well as those in other hard-hit snow covered towns.
