Ended up with 2.90" of rain here in East Nantmeal eclipsing the old mark of 1.66" set back in 1964. Still without power here in the township as I know many of you are in the same situation. Winds are still howling but at least sunshine has returned. The wind advisory is in place till 6pm this evening. Temps should stay pretty steady today. Unfortunately the dry weather will only last till Friday night when we see more rain (although a good deal less) arriving. Mild again on Friday but temps should start falling during the day Saturday with the potential for a little snow by Monday night into Tuesday. Records for today: High 62 (1950) / Low -3 (1982) / Rain 1.06" (2016) / Snow 9.0" (1954)

We are getting some additional snow showers crossing the County this AM. Temps are near to just above freezing in most spots so be careful out there on back roads and drives etc. Between the melted snow and rain since yesterday a few selected area totals include East Nantmeal 1.11" (2.0" snow) / Atglen 1.22" / Warwick 1.12" (2.0" snow) / Glenmoore 0.96" (1.3" snow) / Chester Springs 1.25" / West Bradford 1.43" / West Chester 1.44" / Kennett Square 1.28" We should see a couple dry days before our next rain event arrives on Tuesday AM this could briefly start as snow but will be a pretty significant rain event for the area. Temps will warm into the upper 40's to near 50 by then. Records for today: High 70 (1907) / Low minus 2 (2014) / Rain 2.12" (1996) / Snow 22.8" (1996) which was the first day of our 5th largest snowstorm in history (28.9")

Ended up with 2.0" of snow today...ending our 1" snow drought at 664 days....frosty took out the reindeer

Still some ZR here in East Nantmeal and up to 32.1 degrees...

We turned over to sleet at about 245pm. I measured exactly 2.0" on the board. We now have moderate to heavy sleet falling and down to 29.3 degrees. This ends the 1" daily snow drought at 664 days here in Chester County PA

The "weight" of the snow was too much for the reindeer! Santa still upright in the sleigh!!

Changeover line is racing northward. Heavy Snow here now but sleet should be here shortly. Appears we should break the 1" barrier though

Moderate to now heavy snow here in East Nantmeal Twp.

0.5" of snow here in East Nantmeal at 1pm Temp 30.2. Looks like some heavier snow moving in from the west shortly

Driveway covered for first time this year - steady snow temp 30.1

Santa's sleigh getting covered....

Snow began in downtown Coatesville per weather cams

This is why I suspect the NWS thinks snow totals will not be as robust and why the NWS is leaning to the low end of ranges.

Mount Pocono NAMmed with 20" plus of snow
