I try to wait as long as possible to blanket so they get the thickest coat possible. My horses are used to being blanketed and it gets below 0 so I would feel bad to not blanket lol. I also work them all winter so they get clipped once they get blanketed. When we showed all winter, we kept a sheet and heat lamps on them, and we turned out and rode in a heated arena.

Anyway, what you should so is instead of getting a blanket that claims it is water proof, just get a rain-cover. Put a think sheet or however thick you need on the horse then put the rain cover over.

My rugs are Rhinegold and although it looks wet on the outside it is bone dry and cosy on the inside.

Now, I live in southwest Florida and own a showhorse, so now I use a light blanket just to keep her winter hair from coming in. It really doesn't get cold here at all, it's just to keep that seaonal hair from coming in. Once you blanket, you will always have to blanket, so keep that in mind.

If they have pretty thick coats you might be fine. I imagine that it's cold in Pennsylvania which would affect when or if you blanket. I pull the blanket out on really windy/harsh weather days or at freezing point. If you have a loafing shed or some close knit trees you probably won't need a blanket. It's all up to you, but remember the more you blanket, the less of a winter coat they'll have. How are your horses winter coats? If they have pretty thick coats you might be fine.
