Snowy Presidents Day on Tap for Lehigh Valley

Temperatures soared into the 60s late last week and the area endured high winds Friday night into Saturday.

Now, area residents will likely have to break out the snow shovels during the Presidents Day holiday, as another taste of winter is headed our way.

The National Weather Service posted a winter weather advisory late this afternoon, lasting from midnight to noon Monday. The advisory calls for two to four inches of snow overnight, beginning after 10pm.

Snow is expected to continue through Monday morning, when it is forecast to mix with sleet. An additional accumulation of one to two inches is expected, meaning the total snowfall could range from three to five inches.

The weather service says travel conditions Monday morning will be hazardous due to snow and ice-covered roads.
