The National Weather Service has posted a Winter Storm Warning for the Borough for Sunday, March 2nd at 9:00pm through Monday, March 3rd, at 4:00pm. A major winter storm is expected in our region and it will result in between eight and 12 inches of snow for the Borough.
The storm will arrive Sunday evening and begin as a brief period of rain. The rain will quickly change over to sleet and freezing ran and all snow during the overnight hours. A tenth of an inch of ice is possible during the overnight hours before the snow arrives. Please exercise extreme caution while driving during this storm event.
During the overnight hours, a changeover to all snow is expected. Daytime highs on Monday will be in the mid 20s making this storm a heavy snow event. Snow accumulations will be heavy during the mid morning through early afternoon hours on Monday. Winds will be gusty out of the north at 15-20mph so power outages are possible during this storm.
