Schuylkill County Weather Forecast


By:  Monsoon Mike

Freezing fog (now there's a term you don't hear every day) surprised some folks Wednesday morning, and even me (hey, I'm not an egotistical weather guru who always has to be right) and even lead to some school delays in cooler regions. I think fog is a problem again overnight, but not nearly as thick or "freezing" as last night's version. 

Looks like we finally get a bit of a break from the dreary cloud cover on Thursday with some sun breaking out by afternoon after morning clouds and fog burns off. But it's short-lived as a series of disturbances move through contributing to some rain or snow showers Friday and then again Saturday. There's still a renegade computer model or two that insist Saturday may turn into a period of outright snow, but I'm going with the majority here and saying it's a miss. Sunday then looks better again but turning notably colder.

Even colder weather by mid next week. No "major" storms in the next seven days, but once we get out to about 8 to 14 days, things look much more interesting. Hang in there, snow fans.
