We have picked up some unexpected light rain that has resulted in at least 0.05" across some spots in the county this morning. These showers are backing off the ocean from a small storm off the NJ coast. There could be a couple more showers and clouds today with a continuation of our below normal temperatures. Sun returns tomorrow and we should have a great weekend with low humidity but slowly increasing temperatures. We may get near or slightly above normal by Friday before we turn a bit cooler again at the start of next week.

Widespread low temperatures again in the 40’s across much of the county. The lowest was our normal cold spot at Warwick Township at 42.7 degrees . If you think we have been experiencing a chilly stretch you are correct. Yesterday here in East Nantmeal was our 20th below normal temperature day over the last 22 days. We continue this below normal trend for the next couple of days before we may see near to slightly above normal temperatures by this weekend before slipping back to a little below normal by next week. No rain at all in the forecast for the next week.

A beautiful early autumnal string of weather days this week. Many spots, especially in the valley locations across the county, saw low temperatures again in the 40's. Those same spots should see similar reading for much of the rest of the week with higher spots at least down into the lower 50's. Daytime highs will be below normal through Wednesday with temperatures getting slightly above normal in the upper 70's by Thursday before falling back to near normal in the mid 70's by the end of the week. Unfortunately, no rain appears possible through this week.

Most spots picked up some much-needed rainfall last night. Amounts ranged between as little as .09" at the Nottingham to as much as 0.90" at Glenmoore. We have the chance at some more rain and storms with a strong cold frontal passage tomorrow into Sunday. Today and tomorrow look like our last chance to touch the 80's for a while with higher humidity to add to the summer feel to the days. We turn much chillier again by Sunday with temperatures by Monday struggling to escape the 60's for highs across the higher ridges in the area. Overnight low temperatures will again reach the 40's in many spots by early next week.

We should see our 1st above normal temperature day in 17 days today for many areas. A couple of cold fronts the first weak this evening and the next one on Saturday is stronger. Each of these may bring some much-needed rain. In fact, the National Weather Service has much of Chester County with between 0.75" to 1.00" of much needed rain by Sunday morning. Behind that front we turn much chillier again by Sunday night with a return to below normal temperatures with lows in the 40's and highs in the low 70's next week.

13 of the 19 current Chester County stations recorded their driest August on record. Of note those stations have less years with data. That said on average it appears this to be the 3rd driest August since 1893 across our fair county. The driest such months occurred in 1896 and 1943.

Our beautiful start to September continues with some of our lower valley location recording their 8th straight morning with low temperatures in the 40's! Remarkable for the end of August and the beginning of September. We should see somewhat warmer temperatures this week getting us to slightly above normal high temperatures by Thursday and Friday. Another cold front crosses the area by the end of the week and next week looks like a return to well below normal temperatures again. Our best rain chance in a few weeks looks possible by Thursday night into Friday morning with the aforementioned cold front. We will take whatever we can get at this point.

If you thought this August was chilly across the Philly burbs of Chester County PA it indeed was. We finished with the 6th chilliest August in 133 years of data back to 1893.

Despite a well below normal August in temperatures overall summer (June thru August) finished as our warmest summer since 2010. But still well below our warmest summer way back in 1943. Overall there has been clearly almost no warming at all across our summers since 1893. A very flat trend line is clear to see! The below analysis is across 31 NWS/FAA/DEOS/COOP and trained spotter data since 1893.

We will end August as one of our driest last full months of summer in our climate history. We will also finish with our 4th below normal temperature month across the first 8 months of 2025. Our beautiful weather will continue through the holiday weekend and well into the new work week. We may finally see some beneficial rains by Thursday night into Friday. Thursday looks to be the warmest day of the week with some spots possibly exceeding 80 degrees. We will get cooler again by next weekend.

Lows were in the 40's across much of the area this morning with the lowest being the 41.6 at Warwick. Of note the low this morning at East Nantmeal was 49.2 - this is the first time in my 22 years of weather observations that I recorded a temperature in August in the 40's! Expect many areas to again see lows by Sunday morning in those same chilly 40's. Beautiful but dry weather continues through the holiday weekend and through at least Wednesday. There is a chance of some much-needed rain by Thursday...fingers and toes crossed!

Our run of dry and unseasonably cool weather looks to continue through at least the next week. Another cold front is crossing the area today and by later today winds will turn to the west, northwest, and become gusty. Dew points will fall into the 40's by evening and actual air temperatures will likely follow with widespread lows by Saturday morning in the chilly 40's. Some of our usual colder lower valley spots may be in the low 40's with even some 30's not out of the question. Some higher spots may not escape the 60's for highs tomorrow afternoon. Rain chances look low for much of the week before some chances of rain creeping back into the forecast by Thursday.
