Some rain totals from the storms last night. DEOS stations at Atglen 0.72" / Chester Springs 0.48" / Devault 0.66" / Glenmoore 0.60" / Kennett Square 0.42"/ Longwood Gardens 0.18" / West Bradford 0.51" / Nottingham 0.54" / Warwick 0.42" / West Chester 0.19"/ West Grove 0.13" / KMQS Airport 0.46"/ KOQN Airport 0.10 Our run of 90+ days should end today for most folks across the area. In fact looking ahead at least I suspect we may not see another 90-degree reading for the next 10 days. This week will feature below normal temperatures through Wednesday with highs tomorrow through midweek in the mid to upper 70's. It will however be a wet week with rain chances later today through Tomorrow night and again Thursday into Friday. The driest day looks to be Wednesday.

Thanks pasnownut!! right back at you!!

Happy 4th of July to all of you! Below is the history of July 4th weather since 1893 here in Chester County PA. Overall we have seen a flat trend in average temperature / a slight cooling trend for high temperatures and a slight warming trend for overnight low temperatures for the holiday. The hottest July 4th was back in 1966 the chilliest was in 1978.

Thank you so much!!! I appreciate all the folks that post in this forum and others!!

Happy Independence Day to all!!! Well while today will still be sweltering it will be a few degrees cooler than yesterday. Real relief arrives tomorrow as temperatures fall back to near normal levels for early July with highs in the mid-80's. We will see temperatures fall to below average by Monday and continue through the middle of the week. Shower chances start to increase this evening, but I think the best chances for rain will be after fireworks. Rain chances really increase Sunday night into Monday morning. Some spots could see between 1 to 2 inches of much needed rain.

Too many folks don't know what a great tool that is to get past the junk we don't care about - glad you can mute me Voyager!! That said I am only 7 miles from Lancaster County so like you I cross over....

From Ryan Maue x feed on the NYT article: "It's official: without climate change, the ongoing Eastern United States heat wave is "virtually impossible" Climate scientists performed an autopsy of this week's weather and determined that it could not have happened in the past 500-years w/o the burning of fossil fuels" Q. Can the they do an autopsy the hottest decade on record the 1930's and explain that one for us too? RM. Their study started in 1950, so anything that happened before would not be relevant." LOL!!

1st 100 degree reading here on the island in SIC since I have had a station 2012

East Nantmeal current temp is 92.7 the high has been 93.0. This is the 3rd consecutive day I have reached 90 degrees. This marks only the 8th "heatwave" I have recorded in my 23 summers here in EN since 2004. Of note my poorly sited rooftop Tempest has gone 95.4 / 98.2 / 94.8 the last 3 days vs my VP Pro 2 with 93.0/94.8/91.0

This is excellent thank you!! I have looked at this in the past but you have really detailed and packaged this nicely!!! most appreciated!! I will dive into this!!

The low here in East Nantmeal was only 77.2 degrees. This is the 3rd highest minimum temperature since 2004. Another hot day today with temperatures close to what they were yesterday - mid 90's to near 100 degrees. Small chances of some showers tonight and we begin to slowly trim the heat with highs tomorrow closer to the mid-90's. Shower at T-storm chances ramp up later tomorrow and at night. We then fall back closer to normal temperatures on Sunday before we trend to below normal temperatures by both Monday and Tuesday.

77.2 for the low in EN our 3rd highest min since 2004! We are off to the races today!

LOL!!! Ruh Roh.... sorry Redsky he may have had a couple when he posted this..... but in addition to my station in SE PA in Chester County - the professional stations at Nottingham DEOS, Atglen DEOS, KMQS Coatesville Airport, Glenmoore DEOS, Nottingham DEOS, West Grove DEOS all failed to hit 98 degrees today. Me thinks all these professional station thermometers are not wrong!! Thoughts RedSky??

True and my lows are routinely higher than most....ridge vs valley microclimates in this area.
