CHESTER COUNTY, PA — Winter has arrived with authority, and it is not asking politely. A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 1 p.m. Sunday as heavy snow and blowing winds create treacherous conditions across Chester County. If you looked outside this morning and briefly forgot where you parked your car, you’re not alone.
Snow continues today, occasionally falling heavy, with total accumulations across the region ranging between 4 and 6 inches. Temperatures will drop steadily through the afternoon, falling to around 20 degrees by 5 p.m. Strong northwest winds of 10 to 20 mph — gusting as high as 35 mph — will cause blowing snow and sharply reduced visibility. Road conditions are slick, and travel is strongly discouraged unless absolutely necessary.
Tonight, the storm pulls away, but the cold digs in. Skies clear, temperatures plunge to around 13 degrees, and wind chills dip as low as -2. Winds remain brisk overnight, ensuring anything wet freezes solid. This is not the night to forget the gloves…
