TimB Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 15 minutes ago, ChescoWx said: With any chance of 90 degree days behind us - below is an updated analysis of 90+ days over the last 20 years comparing the PHL Airport vs. the NWS COOP sites in Chester County. Here in East Nantmeal we finished with no 90+ days for the 4th time in the last 20 years. This was true for both of my ground based stations...although my rooftop station (poorly sited) did record 6 such days. Of note all locations experienced less 90+ days during the last 10 years than the previous 10. Of course the PHL Airport continues to average more with their heat island problems. While we’re on the subject of places that aren’t in central PA (like Philadelphia and Chester County), it should be noted that Dulles just recorded its latest 85 degree temperature on record a few minutes ago and even got to 86, so I understand why the cope is happening today of all days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Rgem is cooler tomorrow (than today) but man it will not give up the ghost on it being another record watcher day with MDT's record sitting at 79. It is on a limb with temps this high...some other suits have 65-70 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbler86 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Still sitting at 80 degrees at 5PM. Elevation made no difference today. Sitting at over 800' and it is a frying pan. Mow #15 is in the books (I think it is 15) and I am sweating like it is July. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawatch Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Pouring out with a little thunder. 48 degrees. One tree I look at in the neighbors yard had red vibrate leaves. They all come off over night No records broke this week. Seemed to stay 1-2 degrees under the record all week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that too, the trees with the vibrant colors didnt last long. That gusty wind yesterday stripped those leaves. I thought this year was a great year for colors. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChescoWx Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Some light rain across the county this morning...a bit drier but still cloudy this PM with more rain arriving late tonight. Rainfall amounts should be light and generally less than 0.25" in most spots. It will be over 20 degrees cooler than yesterday with high temps closer to normal in the upper 50's. Of note yesterday was the last day with an average high temperature of 60 degrees....the next time we average above 60 will be April 12th. Records for today 79 (1946) / Low 23 (1976) / Rain 4.04" (2012) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
