Winter Weather Arrives Early as Nor'easter Approaches Mid-Atlantic
DOWNINGTOWN, PA — A winter storm approaching southeastern Pennsylvania could bring the region's first plowable snow of the season Monday night into Tuesday. Areas north of I-78 may see several inches, while the I-95 corridor, including Chester County, is expected to receive minimal accumulation. The December 2 timing could challenge historical snowfall records for the date. Warmer temperatures later in the week should melt whatever snow falls.
PennDOT Schedules Weeklong Roadwork on Route 401
UWCHLAN TWP — PennDOT will implement alternating lane closures on Conestoga Road (Route 401) in Uwchlan Township from December 1-5. Work will occur between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. daily, with flaggers directing traffic between Newcomen Road and Seven Oaks Road. Motorists should expect delays and plan for extra travel time.
