My early winter take for Chester County is a cold start to December. Slightly below normal December and near to below temperature January with near to above normal February. Well above normal March temperatures. Snowfall not too far from average seasonal snowfall. 1 storm over 12" and 2 over 6" Chester County - higher elevations 40" of snow. Valley locations 35" of snow.

Nice write up!! Thank you!!

Most of the area received some beneficial rains with between 0.30" and 0.50" falling since last night. Here in East Nantmeal we have already recorded our high for today at midnight at 53.1 degrees. Temperatures have fallen off to the low 40's across the area and will only rise a degree or two this morning before we see temperatures slowly fall this afternoon. We should reach the 30's by late afternoon and fall below freezing early this evening. Tomorrow will be the coldest day with highs not too far from 40 degrees. We should see well below normal temperatures continuing for the rest of the week with highs mainly in the upper 40's to low 50's.

Some sun this morning, but showers are possible almost anytime today and tonight. We could see between 0.15" to 0.25" of rain by late tonight. Today will be our last mild day with temperatures a couple of degrees above normal with low 60's in the valleys. A strong cold front moves through late tonight and we fall back to near 40 degrees by morning. Our high temperature tomorrow will occur at midnight tonight with temperatures only rising a couple of degrees tomorrow morning before falling to freezing by tomorrow evening. Tuesday will likely see the higher spots remaining in the 30's for high temperatures. We will moderate a bit by Wednesday but temperatures for the rest of the week will remain well below normal for mid-November with highs struggling to escape the 40's through the week.

We picked up a general 0.20" to 0.30" of rain since last night across the area. Today will be our warmest day for at least the next week with temperatures topping out in the low 60's for most spots. Shower chances increase again tomorrow, and we will likely remain in the 50's for highs across the county. A strong cold front crosses the region Sunday night, and temperatures look to slowly fall during the day Monday reaching the 30's toward evening and the freezing mark by late evening. The NWS has the first chance of snow flurries in the forecast by Monday night into Tuesday morning. The coldest day will be Tuesday with some higher spots struggling to escape the 30's for high temperatures. We turn a bit milder but still below normal by Wednesday and turn a bit colder again to close out the work week.

The NWS has terminated the growing season across the entire area as most spots have now seen freezing or frost conditions this season. The only exception remains the highest spots in our area including Atglen, West Grove and here in East Nantmeal where we only dropped down to 33.9 this morning. Our typical coldest spot just a few miles north of here at Warwick Township dropped to 24.2 degrees this morning - almost a 10-degree swing based on elevation. That was the 10th sub-freezing low this season at Warwick. Here in East Nantmeal we will have to wait for our first freeze till our cold shot that arrives on Monday night. The latest first freeze I have recorded here was last year on November 13th. Today we will see high temperatures well up into the 50's. Some showers are likely tonight before our warmest day for the next week tomorrow with highs into the low 60's. We start to cool down on Sunday with more rain possible into the evening before we turn much colder to start the new work week we could even see a snow flurry by Monday night.

A year ago, today we saw record high temperatures across the area with temperatures in the 80's for many spots. Today we will see readings about 30 degrees cooler than that with highs mainly in the lower 50's. Some frost and freeze potential for especially valley spots tonight before we start a gradual warming trend through the weekend. We then turn sharply colder Sunday evening with a widespread hard freeze across the area by late Monday evening. We could even see some snow flurries later Monday. Our best shower chances look to be Friday night.

Warwick Township hit freezing for a low this morning for the 10th time this season while higher spots like East Nantmeal still have yet to experience either a frost or freeze. That streak has a chance to end by Friday morning for many of the higher spots across the area and if not certainly by early next week with our coldest air so far this season. Winds will slowly increase today first out of the southwest ahead of the cold front and then out of the northwest and increasing with gusts as high as 40 mph between 10pm and midnight. The NWS has issued a wind advisory from 7pm tonight till 7am tomorrow morning. Today’s highs today into the low to mid 60's but about 10 degrees cooler tomorrow. We warm up again for the weekend to temperatures a few degrees above normal before we fall well below normal to start the new work week. Our best rain chances look to be Friday night.
