  1. Happy Election Day! No weather excuses for not getting out there and voting today across the area! Yet another beautiful day in our new California-like climate!! We warm to the low 70's today and the upper 70's tomorrow. We then start a cooling trend that will last through the weekend. We also look to have our best chances at rain in over a month by later in the weekend...if we do get the rain on Sunday we will see temperatures struggling to escape the 50's for high temperatures.

  3. Many lower spots had yet another freezing low this morning. For example, Warwick Park recorded their 13th such low this autumn season while ridge locations like East Nantmeal have yet to record even one such day. Looking at the forecast going forward some of the higher spots have a good shot at setting new records for the latest in the season to record a first freezing temperature. As has been the case since September....not much to talk about weather wise with continued dry weather for the entire week with our next chance of any showers waiting till Sunday. Warming temperatures through mid-week and then we cool back to closer to normal by the end of the week into next weekend.

  5. Below is the Climate Summary for Chester County PA for October 2024. Of 18 reporting stations 12 finished with above normal temperatures and 6 with below normal temperatures. Overall we finished at 1.8 degrees above normal for October. This is the first month since July that we finished with overall above normal temperatures in the County. It was for most locations one of the driest Month's on record with most spots recording no rain at all.

  7. We start off November with temperatures near to below normal this weekend. We could see another freeze in the typically colder lower spots and frost in ridge locations overnight tonight and again on Sunday night. We warm back into the low to mid 70's by Wednesday before another cool down toward the end of the week.

  9. After this morning's "sprinkle" event with 0.01" of rain here in East Nantmeal Township that ended our dry streak at 32 days we clear up this afternoon and turn windier and chillier. A slightly chillier than normal weekend ahead before we warm back up to near 70 degrees by Election Day next Tuesday. We cool a bit again by the end of the first week in November.

  11. Up to 80 degrees in East Nantmeal. This is the latest 80 degree reading in the 21 years I have taken observations here.

  13. Happy Halloween! Yet another warm beautiful day on the way with temperatures while not record warmth for trick or treaters it will still be well into the 70's with some low 80's in lower elevations. Cold front cross tomorrow morning with very slight chances of rain. Much chillier over the weekend with temperatures falling back to near normal levels to start November.

  15. A little factoid - if it were not to rain again here in Chester County for the rest of this year....there would still be 34 years that it rained less than 2024!!

  17. We will see an unseasonably warm end to the week before a cooler weekend... followed by a warmer week next week - then cooler again by next weekend. Unfortunately rain chances have dwindled with the frontal passage late on Halloween night. Therefore, the all-time consecutive days without rain run may indeed be broken for many... but not all climate stations across Chester County if we get through this Sunday without any precipitation.

  19. Our warming trend will continue and peak on Halloween with a high well into the 70's with an 80-degree reading possible in valley locations. While it will be warm it will not be as warm as those Trick or Treat days of 1945 / 1946 / 1950 and 2016. Some models still hint at some rain on Thursday night. If we do get rain we will not set a streak for longest stretch without rain. We will be behind both 1924 and 1963. We would need to get through Sunday to set a new record of 35 days rain free. We turn a bit cooler and closer to early November temperatures by the weekend.

  21. I have been here since 2004 and in only 7 of those 21 years have I had a 1st freeze in October. Below are all other spots sorted by elevation in Chester County
  22. As has been the case many times this month...many locations below 500 feet ASL saw freezing temperatures this morning. While most spots above 550 feet fell to no lower than the mid to upper 30's. The lowest temp I found was the 26.7 at Warwick and the warmest was 44.5 at West Grove. Today begins a warming trend that will take us through Halloween. We should peak in the upper 70's on Thursday before falling back to closer to normal levels to start November.

  24. Today should be several degrees chillier than yesterday with highs in the upper 50's. Freeze warning tonight although many spots have already seen multiple freezing temps in lower spots of the county. Most spots except the highest locations like here in East Nantmeal should see a freeze by Monday morning. We start a nice warming trend tomorrow that will last through Halloween before we trend cooler to start November. This week's warmer temperatures should ensure our first above normal temperature month since July. There is a slight chance of showers later on Halloween night....but I am not holding my breath!
