Same here quite a bit of ice sliding off roof into yard!

One of our mildest morning lows in over 10 days here in Chester County with all stations remaining in the low to mid-teens. Today and tomorrow look like our mildest days over the next week. High temperatures today will be in the upper 20’s, and some spots tomorrow have a chance to reach freezing or above for the first time in 11 days. We turn colder again to close out the work week and will turn significantly colder again by the weekend with temperatures remaining in the teens for highs. We have a couple of minor snow chances this week - the first on Tuesday night and another on Friday.

We start February as we ended January with well below normal temperatures. I am working on completing the overall Chester County summary for January but at least here in East Nantmeal this January was the 4th coldest and 3rd snowiest across the 23 years I have been recording weather observations at this location. This well below normal stretch of temperatures looks to continue for at least the first 10 days of February. Today will be our 9th straight day with below freezing high temperatures. We do moderate through Tuesday with our best shot at getting above freezing being Tuesday. The current NWS forecast has a high here in EN of 30 degrees. There could be a few light snow chances over the next week with the first potential on Tuesday night a more likely shot by Friday and another chance possibly by next Sunday. For those on Team Snow the good news is February is on average our snowiest month of the year with East Nantmeal averaging 13.3" of snow in a typical 2nd month of the year.

Agreed! I had 0 or below last 3 nights but last night was lowest at 2.8 above....that said valley spots were well below zero

A weenie view of a classic it's coming north radar hallucination. Who else is feeling January 2000? coming north.mp4

ICON with a little snow across the area on Wednesday

A few places touched zero this morning including the icebox of Chester County the Warwick DEOS station that set an all-time record low with records back to 2012 of 10.7 degrees below zero. The old record was 9.1 below zero on January 22, 2025. Our impressive cold stretch continues through the weekend with today being our 8th straight day of sub 32 highs. This is tied for 8th longest streak since 1893. Our best chance to end the streak and get above freezing looks to be on Tuesday with the NWS forecasting a high of 30 degrees. January will end as our 4th consecutive below normal temperature month and our 9th below average month in the last 12 months dating back to December 2024. Could we be entering our next climate cooling cycle here in Chester County?? While cold most of the next week looks dry but there could be a couple chances of some snow toward midweek and again next weekend.

Don!
