ChescoWx Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Happy New Year's Eve to all! A little foggy to start the final day of 2022. Rain chances will be increasing during today and into the evening. Sun returns for New Years Day and Monday before showers return for mid week. Wednesday looks to be the warmest day of the week with temps more than 20 degrees above normal in the low 60's. Wednesday's record high looks a bit out of reach for Chester County (67 degrees from 1950) but spots toward Philly may approach records highs. We should see a return to more typical January temperatures by the end of the week. The record high for today is 64 degrees set in 1965. The record low is 5 below zero from 1917. Daily rain record is the 1.68" that fell in 1906. Daily snow mark is the 5.0" that fell today in 1970. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTA66 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Best to Birds and Ralph! I had a respiratory thing a few weeks ago, no fever fortunately. Best part was pulling a muscle in my ribcage from coughing. After that, every sneeze, cough and nose blow was an adventure in pain. Back to weather...12z GFS almost blues on us 1/6. Yeah, won't happen but beats tracking Pac puke. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSky Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 This came out of nowhere, as in all recent discussions I have seen have said there was no SSW event evident for the next three weeks.

These things are rampant right now: RSV Strep Throat various variants of Covid 19 Flu You most likely have one or possibly two of these things. I have been seeing it for weeks as a teacher and can only imagine it is worse now during and after the holidays.

Each one of the blog entries does get repetitive with respect to using the same boilerplate intro describing the PV, etc., before launching into their analysis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
