If an event was to happen I suspect with very marginal temperatures this very well could be an elevation driven event.... -

Today will be our mildest day since January 22nd with temps well into the 30's to near 40 degrees. Which in reality is not too far from average for the date. We chill back to near freezing for highs both Thursday and Friday before we turn a bit milder by the weekend. There is still some potential for snow toward Sunday evening as a couple models have moved a little closer toward that solution. -

You think it's been a cold start to February? You are correct! Here in Chester County PA with data back to 1893 this is the 3rd coldest on record as only 1895 (11.2 avg. temp) and 1905 (18.4) were colder. We finally see most spots getting above freezing today but still at least 5 degrees below normal levels. Tomorrow will be our warmest day of the work week with highs well into the 30's. We turn colder again to close out the week, and we could see some snow arrive or Sunday with a likely change to rain by Monday. -

Here in the philly burbs of Chester County 3 stations set a new record for consecutive days below freezing at 17 days through yesterday. The old record was set way back in 1961. -

Today will set an all-time consecutive below freezing streak of 17 days for Chester County PA at a few stations including KMQS Airport, Atglen DEOS and West Grove DEOS. This breaks the old record of 16 days set from January 19, 1961 through February 3, 1961 at the Coatesville 1SW NWS Cooperative station. All locations should finally see temperatures break the freezing mark both tomorrow and Wednesday with highs in the 35-to-38-degree range. This is still a few degrees below our normal highs for mid-February. We turn colder again by Thursday and Friday with near or below freezing high temperatures returning. Snow/Ice or rain chances start to increase by Sunday. -

East Nantmeal looks like it had the coldest reading this morning with a low of 2.5 above zero. Of note Atglen DEOS, KMQS Coatesville Airport and the West Grove DEOS stations all will tie the County record for most consecutive days below freezing high days today at 16 straight days set way back in 1961! They are on track to set a new consecutive record of 17 days tomorrow. It looks like all spots will finally get above freezing on both Tuesday and Wednesday before falling back below freezing for max temps on both Thursday and Friday. The week looks pretty dry with only a slight chance of some precipitation toward Wednesday. -

With our 1.3" of snow since yesterday here in EN we are up to 35.4" of snow for the season. This is almost at our average for an entire winter season of 35.5" The extreme cold warning continues until tomorrow at noon. Temperatures have fallen into the single digits across the area and will struggle to get much above 10 degrees with wind gusts as high as 55mph. Lows tonight will be within a couple degrees of zero and highs tomorrow into the mid-teens. We finally see a moderating trend with 4 climate stations across Chester County finally rising above freezing on Tuesday after a record setting 17 days below freezing. We might see some light freezing rain or rain on Wednesday as temperatures rise into the upper 30's. Models still hint at a storm possibility toward next weekend. -
