Absolutely nothing here in Middletown Township, Glen Mills, outside of 5 minutes of weenie flakes earlier this morning. Even the light rain has stopped. 37F.

Small squall here in West Chester, PA. Surprise! 37F.

Glen Mills is my post office, but down here we just heard the storm chugging by, probably a couple of minutes before touch down. Pretty awesome sounding, and unusual, especially on Halloween and at 11:30 pm. I'll admit I was on the edge of my seat on the porch, lol. Glad that (apparently) no one was hurt.

I'm just shy of 2 miles from where that happened. When that line came through we had a huge surge of wind and rain and could see lightning in the distance but amazingly our power did't go out and not even a branch fell on the property. I drive through that area every day on my way to work and the damage was epic. Cheyney Road was closed off, obviously, and Creek Road (which feeds into Cheyney Road up by Cheyney University) was an obstacle course. Cheyney University had some major good karma in its hip pocket to avoid that near miss.

Holy mackeral, THE HAIL. Rain in buckets. marble sized hail. 

Blew in with a vengeance. Heavy rain. And the power is already out.

Looks like for now the sleet line has sort of stabilized, and I'm right under it. It looks like it may be pushing ESE to our west, so I'm holding out hope. If we don't change back to snow here, wish me lots of sleet please, I've got a snow pile to top off . And here's to lots of snow and/or sleet to everyone!

Yep. The intensity of the sleet has really picked up over here. My one hope now is that it West Chester gets buried under all snow so my office will close and I don't have to go to work. 

Sleet mixing in again. 32F.

Let's keep pushing that line back -- actually have snow mixing back in with the sleet for the moment...

Whatever you're doing must be working! Just starting to see the same thing over here. The pinging has stopped. 

Light sleet. Ugh. Temp at 32F.

Temp down to 33 here. Roads covered. Snowing steadily.

Snow is steady and moderate. Temp down to 34F. Light coverage on grassy areas and on the pine trees.

I'm about 8 miles SE of West Chester so hopefully that snow is coming this way soon.

Went back to a very light steady rain here, with a few small flakes once in a while. At least the temp. is dropping, 38.8 here now.

Same over on this side of Glen Mills. Light drizzle with an occasional flake. Sitting at 38F. 

Legit light snow has started to fall. Glen Mills. Temp holding at 30F.

Temp has crept up to 30F. Seeing some stray weenie flakes. Glen Mills.

Here in Glen Mills I have 3.4" as well. Really nice to see this morning!

Barely some pixie dust. 3.25" in Glen Mills. Temp 29F.

Steady snow. Just beautiful outside. Roads covered up. Temp 26F. Glen Mills. Closing in on 1 inch.

Yeah I think blackhound is about 5 miles NE of me.

Sounds about right. Seeing the pixie dust again.

I think you aren't far from Kamu.

Yes, definitely close to Kamu. And as fast as the light snow showed up, it dried up again to some random flakes. 

And all of a sudden, we have light snow. Holding at 29F.

A few random flakes here in Glen Mills. 29F.
