We had a widespread hard freeze (sub 28 degree) this morning with the latest sub-30-degree temperature I have ever recorded (records back to 2004) here in East Nantmeal with a low of 27.4. In looking back at records for the higher elevation spots (+600 ft ASL) of Chester County this appears to be the latest reading in the 20's in 37 years since the 27-degree reading at Coatesville 2W on April 24, 1989. Both KMQS Coatesville Airport and the Longwood Gardens DEOS station with 18 years of records also recorded their latest sub 30 degree reading this morning. In addition, many of our shorter-term stations with 15 years of records also set a record for latest hard freeze including DEOS stations in Atglen, Devault, Glenmoore, Kennett Square, Warwick, West Chester and West Grove. We stay unseasonable chilly through tomorrow with highs by tomorrow warming to near 60 degrees. We should see above normal temperatures by Thursday before we fall back below normal for the weekend. We have some light shower chances tomorrow morning with a better chance at more significant rains by Saturday.

Thursday is probably the first widespread severe out here.

I wouldn't make a tweet like that this early. At least wait a couple more months. That's the sky is falling type stuff.

The hype is insane with this El Nino

One nor'easter will bring a giant tsunami that buries all the east coast cities.

Then, on the other side of the mountains, there will be such horrible drought that they'll never grow another crop again.

Next December we are going to have 110 degree temperatures with 95 two points on Christmas Eve. There is going to be an El Niño southern stream jet rainstorm that is going to flood Frank out of his home in New Jersey. There is going to be a tsunami on the Hudson River traveling southbound from melting ice from an ice storm that dropped 4 feet of freezing rain in northern New York State. After that a giant asteroid, the size of Antarctica is going to hit earth.

That's fine, but it's not something you can fake.

Looking at other posts from this guys X, he def is a bit of an alarmist by certain words he uses. But, a strong El Nino is probably in the cards, maybe even Super. We will have to see how it plays out over the next few months

Let's hope it cracks the -PDO

I'm not worried yet...the forecast is for a moderate el nino with the chance of it being strong...it all comes down to blocking especially in December...the years with a neg ao and nao had a cold December...1997 being an exception but is the ninth coldest December during el nino...
