Yesterday's 4.3" of snow broke the daily snow Chester County record for March 12th of 2.0" back in 1896. However, we are only at 64% of normal seasonal snow to date.

Wife measured 3" with round 1 - I can see on cams it is snowing moderately there again. I have had a travel day from hell. I am still on the plane now and in flight to Tampa. This is my 2nd flight from PHL today. Flight #1 left at 7am and made it about 150 miles south before the pilot got on and said due to a smell (later found to be hydraulic fluid ) was causing him to return to PHL. We landed back in Philly at 8am. We then did not leave on another plane until 130 pm with another 20 min in the deicing line. I should be arriving in Tampa only 7 hours behind schedule...fun times!

I am heading out to Phillies Spring Training tomorrow...near record cold in the Clearwater area tomorrow night....upper 30's

Sun angle or not - if S+ and upper 20's will accumulate....

How silly is that?? I have not watch TWC for many years - since they stopped doing weather

Who or what is Stella??

Rain has started to mix with sleet for the first time today here in East Nantmeal. Today's 0.5" of snow is our first measurable snowfall in March this decade! The last time we received measurable snow in March was on March 4, 2019. Of note it snowed each of the 1st 4 days of March in 2019 and we received 11.8" of snow.

0.5" of snow so far temp at 32.5 - 5th largest snow of this entire winter!!

Temp down to 33.0 snow now much lighter

Heavy Wet Snow temp down to 34.7

Mix of snow and rain here in East Nantmeal temp at 36.7. I dropped my son off at school - there was no snow at all below 600 feet as the precip started

Nearest location is about 80 miles to my SW that reports snow falling is at Raven Rock near Gettysburg at 900 ft ASL Temp here 38.4 DP 27.0 WB 34.0

38.4 DP 26.5 WB 34.0

Nice mild but cloudy late winter morning here in East Nantmeal with a Temp up to 38.4

Uh what?

Today's high temperature of 72.4 was the 2nd warmest March 7th behind only 1921 Top 5 previous below 1921 75 1974 72 2009 70.3 1987 69 1946 67

High so far here in East Nantmeal has been 72.1 - this is our warmest reading since the 72.8 back on October 25th. The record for today may be out of reach at 75.0 set back in 1921

Locations with elevation over 600ft would if these models are correct see accumulation....if below 400 ft - I would think more white rain

Above 600 feet would as modeled see some accumulation

Some accumulating snow starting to look increasingly likely for some areas on Wednesday....all models have something

Thanks Biden!

Could this happen?...of course....will it???
