Most spots across Chester County below 500ft ASL saw frost and even several reports of sub-freezing temps. Of course here in East Nantmeal and other relatively higher spots we could do no lower than 38.7. However, it was our first reading in the 30's since back on May 18th when we bottomed out at 35.9. The rest of this week will feature well above normal temps in the mid 70's....while warm it will not be close to record levels which range between 79 and 84 for the remainder of October. A quick turn to much colder weather looks increasingly likely as we reach the start of November. Records for today: High 84 (1900) / Low 23 (1969) / Rain 2.03" (1917) Go Phillies!!! I DO need a new avatar!!!

A beautiful weather week ahead with a possible frosty start for some spots tomorrow morning before a solid warming trend could see many spots reaching the low 70's by Thursday. The warm weather should continue through the weekend before turning much colder to close out the month as we move into November. Records for today: High 85 (1947) / Low 22 (1969) / Rain 2.81" (1912)

Below is a analysis of our first freezes by decade here in Chester County from the 1890's to 2020's. The average first freeze date is October 24th since the move to over 650ft ASL and it was October 14th at the relatively lower elevations ~400 ft ASL prior to 1983. Looking ahead it appears our first chance at a below freezing day at least in the higher spots will be during the first few days of November. Although, we might see some frost in lower spots by Tuesday AM.

Well below normal temps today with a chilly wind but a gradual warmup which may lead to near 70 degree readings by the end of this week. Could be a bit of patchy frost in the lower spots of the county by Tuesday morning. Looks likely we see a sharp turn to colder in time for Halloween. Records for today: High 84 (1979) / Low 22 (1940) / Rain 2.12" (1956)

Not much rain from our latest event...only 0.06" here in East Nantmeal but it looks like almost a 1/2 inch of rain fell in some spots including Exton. Temps will struggle today to get above 60 degrees. We will see below normal temps through Tuesday before some above normal readings by the end of the week. Lows on Monday night will be in the 30's with some patchy frost possible in some of the lower spots. Records for today: High 85 (1947) / Low 19 (1922) / Rain 3.13" (1904)

A mild cloudy day ahead for Chester County today we should see highs in the above normal mid to upper 60's. Rain looks to stay to our east this AM with rain chances increasing after 5pm tonight. Drying out tomorrow and windy and chilly on both Sunday and Monday with temps remaining below normal from tomorrow through Tuesday. Above normal temps return by Tuesday and we should stay warm through the end of next week. Records for today: High 82 (1969) / Low 21 (1972) / Rain 2.48" (1988)

The next 2 days look like perfect autumn days. Today will be just about normal high temps in the low 60's with tomorrow in the above normal upper 60's. Rain chances increase on Friday with the steadiest rain moving in by late evening. Much colder weather moves in by Sunday with temps on Monday likely to struggle to escape the 40's for the higher spots of the county. Records for today: High 89 (1908) / Low 22 (1974) / Rain 1.98" (1911)

Today should be another day of below normal afternoon temps with highs struggling to reach 60 degrees. Normal highs are in the lower 60's. We should rebound to slightly above normal temps both Wednesday and Thursday before our rain chances ramp up by Friday evening into Saturday. Below normal temperatures return with drier weather by the end of the weekend. Records for today: High 89 (1908) / Low 25 (1937) / Rain 1.30" (1932)

A wet and unseasonably chilly day on tap across Chester County today. Temperatures for most locations will remain in the 40's through the day. We may get close to the record rain for today which was set back in 2003 when 1.21" fell. Sunshine returns by tomorrow PM but below normal temps look likely through much of the next week. Records for today: High 85 (1975) / Low 27 (1988) / Rain 1.21" (2003)
