Following the frontal passage this morning any flurries or squalls will end. Temperatures will fall below freezing by late morning in most areas and continue to slowly fall into the 20's in most spots by 4pm. Winds could gust as high as 45mph and cause some power outages in the usual suspect spots (like mine). Tomorrow may be our first sub-freezing day of the season with highs not reaching freezing. We start a nice warming trend over the weekend that should last through mid-week before we chill down again by later next week. We may have several rain chances Monday through Wednesday.

SNOW SQUALL...OBSERVED

It seemed any frozen had melted as it approached the city limits.  My sis in Delco got a flizzard last night but nada here.  Ended up with 0.04" of liquid between midnight and 2 am and then another 0.01" of rain between 6 - 7 am.

Got up to 40 yesterday after a low of 24 and what might be my high today was just after midnight of 41.  It did stay above freezing overnight.

Currently a misty 38 with dp 33.

And deer stopping by for a snack:

Deer are oblivious to  humans these days. They used to run like hell when they seen one of us humans, now they stand and stare. Need to gun some of them down and make jerky. 

Had a small squall about an hour ago. Windy with mean Jim O'Brien looking clouds above currently...
