Fast Forward, Update

Some areas north and west of Philadelphia saw their first snowflakes of the season yesterday and this morning, and some saw a whole lot more than that.

Snow fell generously on the Poconos, with 11 inches reported in Blakeslee and Tobyhanna, both in Monroe County.

Closer to the Philadelphia city-sate, in Chester County, Elverson weighed in with 2.5 inches, and East Nantmeal, 2. Six inches was recorded in Springtown, Bucks County.

Here are the updated snow totals from the National Weather Service.

Was mildly surprised to learn it/s not unheard of for ABE to get measurable snows in early to mid-NOV.

3" fell on the 19th in '55 at the start of a La Nina winter; however...La Nina wasn/t in play when the NOV snows listed below were observed.
