1/2 An #Arctic cold front will traverse northern MD, southeastern PA & the LSV between ~3-9 AM Thurs. & be accompanied by an intense line of rain/snow showers. A coating of #snow is possible on grassy surfaces, especially N/W of Route 15/I-81. Temps will drop behind the front..

2/2 .. but roadways shouldn't turn icy due to temps >32°F ahead of the boundary & partial sunshine behind it. There may be slick spots on secondary roads in the South Mtn Range & N/W of I-81, but a brief/sharp reduction in visibility within the squall line will be the main issue.

Here in the Philly burbs of Chester County PA November 2024 ended with an overall average temperature across the County of 47.7 - this was the 19th warmest November since 1893 (see top 20 below). The coolest station was Warwick Park and the warmest was The Brandywine Regional Airport (KOQN) in West Chester.

Is there something different from the ones I was getting last week?

Oh, I was unaware they had issued squall warnings for the region. I didn't see those but I'm sure they were the updated NWS style. From what I remember, it gives the regional offices more flexibility to warn a specific area - not just county wide.

Below is some record climate data for Chester County PA since 1893 for the Month of December. Take a look at that delta between the average temperature during that warm recent December of 2015 vs. the record cold December back in 1989. Only a 27 degree average temperature difference!
