This morning was the 100th below freezing low of the season here in East Nantmeal. Here in EN we average 97 such days. This is the most below freezing days since 2018-19 when we had 104 days. With records here since 2004 the most were 120 days in 2013-14 and the least only 72 days in 2015-16. We will see below normal temperatures today before we moderate to near normal (low 50's) tomorrow. Thursday we should warm well into the 60's before rain arrives by Friday morning. Much colder this weekend with nighttime lows again below freezing.

Don your view that what is happening now has never occurred before as always remains your blind spot!

Below is how much faster the warming is just since 1960 at our local PHL Airport with their growing UHI problem. That warming slope is a wee bit different just around 25 to 35 miles west of the concrete and river warm oasis that is PHL Airport!

Chris simply does not see the current warming as an existential threat or anything to lose sleep over....as you know I agree with his view! This makes alarmists upset we all understand this!

Updated annual average temperatures for suburban Chester County PA vs the PHL Airport....UHI FTW! In fact in analyzing the warming slope - PHL is now warming at a 6x faster rate than the Philly burbs!

Updated through 2025 - who knows why PHL is warming so much faster than non-UHI spots at airports?? In fact the PHL warming slope is now growing at 6 times the rate of Chester County Pa!

Chilling our past will always helps support climate alarmism....

More importantly just 6 days till Phillies opening day! Go Phillies!!

Today back in 1958 the area was in the middle of the 2nd greatest snowstorm in Pennsylvania history. Below are the all-time 3 day snowstorms across our state. The top 2 storms both were in our local area with the Blizzard of February 1899 at Coatesville with 52.4" and the 50.0" just off the PA Turnpike at Morgantown leading the way. Of note that same storm in 1958 also featured the 49" that was recorded just off the PA Turnpike at Devault. I have also included the hand written NWS COOP March 1958 observations for both Morgantown and Devault.

Happy Spring Equinox at 10:46am to those that celebrate! Some folks think this means we have equal amounts of day and night lengths. While those are not far too far apart today (Sunrise 707am /Sunset 7:15pm) it in fact is when the Sun crosses the celestial equator. Five of our last 6 days have featured below normal temperatures but we will see temperatures well above normal today with highs near 60 degrees. We stay mild through the weekend with rain chances ramping up tonight and again on Sunday night. We turn sharply chillier again toward the middle of next week.
