Schuylkill County Weather Forecast


By:  Monsoon Mike

If you hate snow, you got awful lucky with what's happening tonight. If you love snow, you got awful unlucky. Why all the luck and unluck? A major storm is skimming us just to the south. As nearby as Philadelphia, an inch or two may fall. As nearby as Cape May, NJ, 4 to 6 inches may fall. But Skook? Maybe a flurry or a few snow showers at most.

Then, just another very cold day tomorrow but moderation in temperatures happens this weekend. In fact, such moderation that any precipitation that falls this weekend may be in the form of rain or mixed precipitation showers. Also, not looking like much precipitation with that event, so all the Farmer's Almanac hype of a Super Bowl storm looks to be just that ... hype. 

But things begin to turn downward (or upward if you like winter storms), however, NEXT week. In fact, mid next week or a few days thereafter, the odds favor our next somewhat moderate winter storm. The winter of '13 - '14 presses on, folks!
