While some lower spots reached below freezing here in East Nantmeal our low of only 35.8 marks the first time this month and only the 3rd time this year we have failed to fall below freezing for the AM low. Our mild week continues with the next widespread below freezing temperatures not likely till Friday night. Much colder by Saturday night and in fact we may struggle to get above freezing for high temperatures by the time we get to Sunday. Our best chance of rain will come on Thursday.

Saw this earlier from 11 years ago today one of the all time best quotes about the climate myth of "settled science" from Charles Krauthammer "If climate science is settled, why do its predictions keep changing?.... But whoring is whoring and the gods must be appeased."

I also fully believe in CC......just the cyclical type that never ends!

Cyclical Climate Change as always rears it's ugly head!

sounds alarming "not going to make it in time" - when will we go extinct on this timeline?

Nice mild week ahead with most nights even staying above freezing! The warmest day looks to be Thursday but also the day with the best chance of rain. We turn back to colder than normal by Saturday evening into next week.

Thanks for asking - let me help you out here! "cyclical" check spelling - defined means "occurring in cycles or recurrent" Best for the benefit of climate analytics. Hope that helps you out!!

Charlie funny your data looks very cyclical just like mine - thanks for supporting the very cyclical nature of our climate for me! Of course no fake adjustments allowed. My chart above is data for only complete decades so no 1890's or 2020's - no doubt the 2020's are off to a warm start.....but with our recently started cooling cycle kicking in let's see how the 2020's play out ....

Hey Kamu! We have had 30 days with high temps below freezing this season.

Today will be near normal temperatures for the 1st time in a week. We should continue to see a nice warming trend throughout the week before we turn cooler toward next weekend. Slight shower chances on Tuesday and a better chance by Thursday.

Now that our next cyclical cooling cycle could well be starting now thought best to post at this time....

Chester County PA Average Winter Temperatures by Decade 1900's thru 2010's Our warmest winters occurred back in the decades of the 1930's and 1950's our coldest were in the 1960's and 1970's.

So how persistently cold has this winter been from a historical basis here in Chester County PA? Well, we will finish February as our 3rd straight winter month (Dec/Jan/Feb) with below normal temperatures. To put this in perspective a winter featuring the winter months all finishing below normal regarding temperatures has not happened in the last 11 years (2013-14). In fact, this is only the 14th time in the last 55 years and overall, only the 36th time in 132 seasons of record back to the winter of 1894-95 here in Chester County to pull off such a hat trick! I suspect most of us are about ready for some springtime weather!

Almost coast to coast cold so far this year. The entire country except spots in Maine, Florida and The Southwest running with below normal temperatures since January 1st. Is this the start of our next cyclical climate change cycle of a turn to colder?

Happy First Day of Phillies Spring Training Baseball games for those who celebrate!!! Go Phillies!! Well, we finally reach near to slightly above normal temps the rest of this week as we get a brief break from the consistently cold winter weather that has held us in its icy grip since around Thanksgiving Day! Our warmest day looks to be Tuesday where most spots may actually exceed 50 degrees. Here in East Nantmeal we have not enjoyed any days with a temperature that "warm" this year! Maybe we see some rain by Thursday.

Some snow totals through yesterday from across the country vs. their seasonal average snow to date. Some surprises in there for sure!

With yesterday's 14th minor (as most of them have) winter event we are now at 80% of our normal snowfall through yesterday and only about 5 inches below normal. Today will again remain below freezing before we rise to near normal for the weekend and above normal for much of next week. Before we turn back to below normal temperatures to close out February and start March. The next chance of any precipitation looks to be toward Tuesday evening.

Call this one an over performer! Just saw a trained spotter up at Huffs Church in Berks reported 1.1" to the NWS. That is the highest amount I have seen reported so far....
