Uh the pattern has kind of been great if you like winter weather. One of the coldest December's in 45 years and 165% of normal snowfall through today. I hope the pattern stays the same as December. Like I said in November when folks saw no snow in the future...give me the cold the snow will follow. Keep the faith!

Happy New Years Eve to all of you! Yet another well below normal temperature day to close out 2025. In fact this will be the 3rd straight month with below normal average temperatures, and we will finish the year with 7 of the 12 months with temperatures below normal. I have to crunch the final numbers tomorrow, but this will likely be a top 10 coldest December here in Chester County in the last 45 years. For many spots across the County we will remain below freezing through the weekend with below normal temperatures likely through at least the 1st week of 2026. We could see some snow showers toward midnight tonight and through the overnight hours with maybe a coating in spots. Have a safe and festive New Years Eve!!

Winds have been howling much of the night and will continue this morning before slowly subsiding later today. The sun returns today but we stay with well below normal temperatures for at least the next week with temperatures remaining below freezing till at least Saturday. We only warm slightly to just above freezing this weekend into early next week. There is a chance of a little snow later New Years Eve into New Years Day. If we do see some snow amounts should be light.

Showers this morning with a morning high in the upper 40's but after a cold front swings through near noon temperatures will fall and winds will increase. A Wind Advisory is in effect from 10am today through 1pm tomorrow. We should reach freezing by around 5pm this evening. Once we fall below freezing we may not see above freezing temperatures again for the rest of the year. We look dry for the rest of the week except for a slight chance of some snow flurries on New Year's Eve. Of note we will finish around 6 degrees below normal here for December 2025 and it will be the 2nd coldest December here in East Nantmeal in the 23 years I have been recording observations - behind only 2010.

31.6 degrees here DP 28.2 with some light ZR

Well at least for East Nantmeal (not all of Chesco sites) -7.3 below normal. I plugged in the NWS forecast to close out the month. We will finish around 6 degrees below normal and it will be the 2nd coldest December at my location in the 23 years I have been here. Behind only 2010.

Cloudy with temperatures slowly rising to near and then above freezing this evening. There could be a couple light showers this evening that in some of the higher ridge areas could briefly see some light icing if temperatures are still freezing when the showers arrive. The good news is temperatures will continue to rise tonight and well into the 40's tomorrow with a line of showers passing through in the morning. We will become sharply colder again tomorrow with temperatures dropping to freezing by evening. We then stay well below normal for the remainder of the week and into the first week of 2026. Next light snow chance looks possible around New Year's Day.

I notice the NWS has a high of 40 degrees tomorrow on my point and click but the NAM keeps highs within a couple degrees of freezing and the 18z shows some ZR as the rain arrives tomorrow PM edit that is because temps will continue to rise through the evening!

With our 0.8" of sleet and ice yesterday our December snow total is now at 11.2" this is the 5th most in December in the 23 years I have been at this location. Temperatures today will struggle to get to freezing so be careful out there. We warm to near 40 degrees tomorrow and then turn unseasonably warm on Monday with highs into the middle 50's. To go along with the warmer temperatures rain will arrive tomorrow night and last into Monday. The cold returns by Monday night and we will end the days leading into the New Year with well below normal temperatures.

not the best of nights to be on the roads here in Chesco

I have seen some flakes mixing in for the first time tonight with all surfaces covered. So far here in EN we have 0.8" of sleet/snow the temp is at 24.4

Worst winter of my life 1993-94 non stop ice and snow for all of January and February. I remember chunks of ice on 202 for a week at one point!

Driveway covered with sleet accumulation

Moderate sleet again here in EN with temp down to 24.3 seeing some sleet accumulation on all surfaces

Technically freezing rain

If it's 28 degrees it is ya know not plain rain.....

Welp not exactly just plain rain at this temperature but....

ugh! I hope that is not what this will be....hopefully as intensity picks up you go back to sleet...

I think when the precipitation intensity is lower it will be ZR and as it gets heavier most spots will be sleet. Temp here continues to slowly fall down to 25.2 with DP up to 15.8 The next heavier band should be moving in from the west during the 5pm hour

Steady sleet here in EN all surfaces covered and slippery 26.4 degrees and temp is slowly falling
