The Your Future Alert Weather Forecast has declared Wednesday morning a Weather Alert Period, with officials issuing Winter Weather Advisories across various counties.
A winter weather advisory is in force for Wayne, Monroe, and Pike counties until Wednesday AM.
Most of us will get scattered rain showers on Tuesday night. However, higher elevations in northeastern Pennsylvania may experience patches of freezing rain. Isolated slick places are possible, and temperatures on Tuesday might range from the lower to middle 30s.
Clouds will be tenacious on Wednesday as our most recent storm system passes away. Residents can expect a few rain or snow showers afterward. It will be breezy, with afternoon temperatures in the mid 30s and lower 40s.
High pressure will offer sunnier skies on Thursday, with high temperatures in the mid-40s.
On Friday and Saturday, a complicated and powerful storm system will move through the Great Lakes and into the Northeast. As a result, we will be on the warm side of it. A strong southerly wind will push temperatures a few degrees over or below 50° on both days. In addition, a bout of rain is anticipated for Friday.
A second round of rain is expected on Saturday. At times, the rain will be heavy. The combination of rain and warmer temperatures will result in melting. Ponding of water on highways and mild flooding in inadequate drainage regions are also conceivable. Ice on larger rivers may break up, causing localized flooding risks. We will continue to follow this issue throughout the week.
Colder temperatures and snow showers are expected to return on Sunday. High temperatures will range from 35° to 40°.
Monday and Tuesday will be frigid for the season.
