Winter Arrives This Weekend: What You Need to Know

As winter officially begins this Saturday, weather experts are alerting residents of a significant cold front and potential snow events that could characterize the arrival of the season. According to KXAN’s weather blog, the onset of winter will bring about drastic changes in temperatures and precipitation levels. With highs expected only in the mid-30s and lows plummeting to around 15 degrees Fahrenheit, individuals should be prepared for a shock to the climate system. Lehigh Valley sources indicate that the region will experience a drop in temperatures compared to the typically milder fall weather, with the potential for a sneaky snow event predicted as well. Meteorologists have noted that early cold weather is frequently accompanied by significant snowfall, and this year seems to follow that pattern. The National Weather Service expects anywhere from one to three inches of snow in certain areas, which could cause disruptions in travel and outdoor activities. ‘It’s going to feel quite different for many people, and it’s essential to prepare for whatever Mother Nature throws our way,’ said a local forecaster. As winter solstice approaches, residents are urged to stay informed and take precautions due to the expected weather conditions.
