Schuylkill County Weather Forecast


By:  Monsoon Mike

Get ready for the freezer again this coming week! Not overly brutal Sunday and perhaps even somewhat comfortable Monday before another major cold front puts us down into the arctic depths for Tuesday until the end of the coming week. A frustrating thing for snow lovers, however, is that no major snowstorms look to happen this coming week. A potential larger potential around Thursday now looks to stay on the more minor side. That's not to say we won't see ANY snow this week. They'll actually be two, if not three chances for "minor" snowfalls, but that's it for this week. Still looking at the final week of January for more "active" weather. 

When are those "minor" events that we've grown frequently used to this winter season? Some snow showers possible Sunday morning (but less than today's event). Some more snow showers Tuesday. And some more Thursday. One of those Tuesday or Thursday events could "surprise" us with a little more snow than "showers," much like today's did, but that's about it for the week. The biggest story will be the c ... c ... cold with highs only in the teens and nights in the single digits. Have a good evening!
