It is a very frosty morning here in MBY the current temperature with all that frost is 26. Yesterday the official H/L at GR was 37/32 there was 0.89” of precipitation and 0.2” of snow fall. There was no sun. For today the average H/L is now up to 49/30 the record high of 77 was set in 1976 and the record low of 6 was in 1996. The most snow fall of 10.2” fell in 1970. Last year the H/L was a cool 34/25 and there was 0.5” of snow fall. The next week looks to be on the cooler side of average with a one day warm up on Friday. And there are several chances of rain and snow and maybe even a thunderstorm.

This system is tracking a bit farther north than most models were predicting, so I'm getting nothing.

We have received 1.30" of rain over the last 3 days -still leaving us 2.80" below normal so far here in 2023. A beautiful day today with high temps well into the 50's to near 60 degrees. This will be our last above average day till Friday. Rain chances increase again by late tomorrow afternoon but sun will return for much of the week before more rain chances by Friday.
Records for today: High 84 (1921) / Low 18 (1951) / Rain 2.03" (1978) / Snow 2.0" (1900)

All historical weather data analytics posted by me is specifically for the climate of Chester County PA.  We continually analyze the actual raw non-adjusted NWS certified Coop observed climate data for Chester County.  There have been no post observation adjustments to any of the detailed analytics. All data is sourced from trained NWS observers and spotters. The life blood of science is to challenge what is thought to be known. The concept that climate change etc. is somehow “settled science” describes a religion - a belief system that does not welcome challenges. We should all continue to challenge science!    Snow Totals 2023/24 = 24.5" -  11/28 (0.3") / 12/7 (0.8") / 12/11 (0.8") / 1/6 (2.0") / 1/16 (2.8") / 1/19 (4.5") / 2/13 (10.5") / 2/17 (2.8")

Average Chester County PA Snow at elevations over 660 FT ASL (1983-Present) = 35.9" Snow totals by season: 2022/23 (2.7") /2021/22 (20.5")  2020/21 snow  (52.2") /  2019/20 snow (5.8" )/ 2018/19 snow (35.1" )/ 2017/18 snow (58.5") / 2016/17 snow (24.0")/ 2015/16 snow (40.8")/ 2014/15 snow = (55.3") /2013/14 snow (80.0").

The weenie band continues into central Iowa.  These late March systems mean business.

I was in Omaha all weekend so I missed out on the snow. My area was one of the big winners too with reports ranging from 8-10. Got home about 430 and maybe 3” remain. Amazing what the March sun does. Biggy seems to be looming on the horizon Easter weekend. Will see if that stays.

Yesterday was exactly average with a HL of 49/30 there was 0.16” of rain fall and no snowfall. The overnight low here in MBY and current temperature is 34. For today the average H/L remains at 49/30 the record high of 81 was set in 1945 and the record low of 0 was set in 1965. The record snow fall of 6.9” fell in 1948. Last year it was cold with a H/L of 29/20 that high of 29 was the 4th coldest for this date. The next 5 days look to be near average with a one day warm up on Friday. Friday looks like it could be wet. In looking outside there is a trace of new snow fall on the ground here and for the season Grand Rapids is now at 109.4"

We now have more snow on the ground than Northern Nebraska.  They remarkably missed out on the storm over the weekend that hit my area among others.  They haven't missed many storms this year.
