For those on Team Snow - I present the latest European AI model ensemble means run....the best weenie run I can find - so you mean there is a chance??

Worcester, PA  was down to 25.2 a few minutes ago. 26 at this moment. Still pretty clear our with a bright moon.  I expect we will pop up when the clouds move in.

28f dewpoint 15f Media, PA Delaware County Clear.

27f Dp22 cloudy, light ESE wind @ 2mph. Temps have risen from a low of 23f. I guess the ESE wind tells the tale here as the precip. Starts falling the temps might fall back initially. I’m thinking 1 maybe 2” here in Western Berks.

[Birds~69]

Not much further to the West...thinking this will be mostly a cold ass rain. 29F

[BBasile]

Rain just started here with a few pingers mixed in.  32.9F

Same here, was looking for some flakes but nah... 33F here, dp is still 22.

[BBasile]

Have a tiny coating of ice on unpaved surfaces.  I'll take what I can get.  

[Mikeymac5306]

31 and flakes in Exton. 

[Hurricane Agnes]

Checking in with temp IMBY currently at 35 and dp 27 with some earlier drizzle but mostly overcast skies as the air is still dry (the walks have some splats on them but peeping out, I wasn't getting anything at that moment).  The temp and dp have been non-diurnal as they have slowly crept up overnight since my last posting here about last evening. 

[ChescoWx]

Sleet mixed with a few mangled snow flakes here in East Nantmeal in NW Chesco temp 30.8 DP 22.9. With our 2nd winter event of 2025/26. Surfaces have a small snow/sleet cover. 

[JTA66]

IP, 32F/DP 25F

Couldn't even manage pity flakes. As Ji would say, this winter is turning into an unmitigated disaster! 

[Ralph Wiggum]

Rain and 33 in Ivyland. 

[Hurricane Agnes]

Now have light rain and 0.03" in the bucket.  Temp has dropped a degree to 34 edit - now 33 and dp is now up to 30 as the air saturates.

The area airports - KPHL, KRDG & KTTN, reported trace snow earlier.

[Newman]

Sleet line already up to southern Berks, can see it quickly racing northward on CC

Yep, cold ass rain. Didn't see a flake...

[LVblizzard]

Steady snow in Allentown. Coating on the ground so far. A bit concerned about a changeover happening earlier than expected looking at radar…we should at least get an inch, maybe two before that happens though.

[Birds~69]

Feel sorry for the plow drivers with their blades up driving around. No income, loss of gas...

90% of the time the change happens earlier than expected in all areas..... It sucks, but true.

[Tatamy]

Steady light snow in Bethlehem Twp.  Watching that mixed precipitation/rain line to my south.  Figuring we should transition within an hour or so.

That's highly disappointing for your area....

[ChescoWx]
