A really interesting statistic for the entire USA which exactly mirrors the data I share here from the philly burbs of Chester County. This below analysis measures not the typical metric of 90+ days but unusual hot periods of at least 4 days on average across the entire country where the average temperature reaches a level based on historical records that would be expected to only occur once every 10 years. Look how much hotter the entire nation was back in 1930's and 1940's compared to today! No matter how much we hear about how hot it is today we have still not reached that peak heating from the 1930 through 1942 period which matches the hottest period here in Chester County PA.

Plenty of lows in the 50's across the area this morning with the lowest being the 50.0 at the Warwick DEOS. Today will be our 9th day in the last 10 with slightly below normal temperatures. Great weather through Thursday before rain chances increase again by Thursday night into Saturday morning. We should slowly warm up next week to above normal temperatures as we close out the month of June. -

A Flood watch is in effect starting at 2pm today. Rain will arrive from west to east later this afternoon. We could see some thunderstorms. There is still some uncertainty to where the heaviest rain will fall. For now it appears from 0.5" across NW Chesco to over an inch possible toward SE Chester County. Highs today and tomorrow will be several degrees below normal with the clouds and rain. We dry out later Tuesday through much of Thursday before more rain arrives Thursday night into Friday. -

Happy Father's Day to all the dad's out there! Plus happy first day of summer which began this morning at 4:24am. Another great weather day is on tap across the area. Temperatures are not far from typical levels for very early summer. Rain chances to ramp up by later tomorrow before we clear out for mid-week. Shower chances return again by Thursday afternoon. -

Plenty of 50's and even 40's this morning with our typical cold valley location Warwick Twp reaching 49.8 degrees. To contrast that just a couple miles south of there but a few hundred feet higher in East Nantmeal Twp. we only reached 59.9 (over 10 degrees warmer). Great weather continues today and tomorrow with highs close to normal around 80 degrees. It still looks like Monday will bring some beneficial rains to the area with at least an inch of rain for many spots still likely. We turn drier and cooler for the rest of the work week with highs a couple of degrees below normal. -

Below normal temperatures for most of the next week with beneficial rains arriving for much of the area by late Sunday into Monday. Sun should return this afternoon with lower humidity. The weekend looks great with highs in the upper 70's to near 80 degrees and lows in the 50's. The rain Monday could be significant with most models painting as much as 1" to 1.5" of needed rain. -
