Central PA Spring 2026 Discussion/Obs Thread


Recommended Posts

As we get into the summer months lower elevation (<450 ft asl) areas of Chester County PA will see at least one heat wave (defined as 3 or more consecutive days with highs at 90 degrees or above) while the relatively higher ridge locations (>600 ft asl) only average a heat wave every couple of years or so. Below sorted by highest to lowest elevation is a ranking of all reporting stations since 2000 with their recorded heat waves. Our lowest elevation spot at Phoenixville averages a whopping two to four times the number of heat waves as almost all other locations across the county.

37 degrees this morning.  :angry: Can’t remember seeing such temperature swings.

No surprise though with the clear blue skies last night.

Temp took a big dip here the past two hours. It was 42 when I got up at 4:30, but now it dropped to where we officially got down to 39 at 6:30.

Crazy...

39 frigid degrees was my low too. What season are we in and what season are we headed to?

Looks like maybe summer by the end of the week. Question is, do we keep it, or do the temps tank again after next weekend?

Thats the million dollar question. I hope were done with this cool, sometimes cold, cloudy windy weather till November. But I think we need further guidance on this matter.
