Myers. Impressive though just models right now. Good thing that I’ll miss the potential cold snap down there. Mrs. Blizz & my daughters would not have enjoyed cold temperatures in Florida. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted March 8, 2024 Share Posted March 8, 2024 Easterly wind gust to 38. Breezy out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChescoWx Posted March 8, 2024 Share Posted March 8, 2024 The first 7 days of March have been the warmest start to March in 20 years (2004). The warmest start in March history across all available Chester County sites was 50 years ago back in 1974. We look to turn chillier with closer to normal temps over the weekend with temps remaining in the 40's with rain tomorrow into Saturday night. We warm again during the next week before a pattern change to colder than normal starting toward the end of next week. Chester County wide records for today: High 80 degrees at Glenmoore / Honey Brook and Coatesville (2000) / Low zero West Chester (2007) / Rain 2.96" Coatesville (1995) / Snow 10.7" Phoenixville (1941) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sauss06 Posted March 8, 2024 Share Posted March 8, 2024 yesterday i saw a guy mowing the lawn at the Korean Church out the road from me. On the way out he was on the John Deere, on my way back in he had the push mower trimming. i kinda chuckled to myself, however when i got home and took the grandpuppy out, i looked around. There is parts of my yard that need mowed too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had flowers up for a week and a half. There are area of my yard that are >6" high. If I do get to mow today, I will be the 3rd on my block this week to do so. I am behind some of my neighbors.

If colder weather does follow it's going to be a shock to more than just a lot of people. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbler86 Posted March 8, 2024 Share Posted March 8, 2024 They may need to issue a WSW or Advisory for the Laurels. Temps may be a reason they do not but might be close. Several meso's show 4-6" and Nam is around 8". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have blotchy green clumps where the dog has peed. At least a few more weeks to wait here. Almost a certain prolonged Wind Advisory forthcoming. WSW in northwest PA and Costal Flood Watch for the Chesapeake so at least there's pretty colors on my CTP map. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several meso's show 4-6" and Nam is around 8". Certainly an advisory looks probable there, and possibly some of the other counties in western PA along I-80 outside of the snow belt immediately off of Lake Erie. Temps at elevation in the Laurels look to be plenty cold (falling into the mid 20s Sunday), so snow will likely pile up once it gets going. Once east of the Laurels likely nothing major accum wise, however there could be some potent squalls that traverse the central counties on Sunday. With regard to WSW potential, duration is likely a factor in probably not seeing amounts like that in the Laurels outside of the very highest elevations. The back lash event itself looks potent though, with -10 to -12ºC 850mb air coming across the well above average and unfrozen lakes. Couple that with March solar and daytime instability and I think we’ll see some long reaching squalls and potential snow squall warnings especially in the central part of the state as mentioned. Surface temps in the Sus Valley will be warmer but anything stronger that makes it over there will likely crash temps and become snow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunday could be one of the more wintery type days we have had this "season". The wind is going to make everyone cold even if it near 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
