Will the Saucon Valley See More Snow This Weekend?

It's still a couple of days away, but this weekend holds the possibility of more snow for the Saucon Valley area, according to the latest National Weather Service forecasts.

Late Tuesday, the weather forecasters at the Eastern PA Weather Authority noted on their site's Facebook page that "[weather] models are converging towards a solution that would favor a good front end snow with this next [weekend] system."

It was just a couple of days ago that Saucon Valley residents awoke to the first significant snow of the season.

Several inches of snow fell on Hellertown, Lower Saucon Township and nearby areas, prompting the cancellation of school and numerous meetings and events on Tuesday.

The forecast for Saturday includes an 80 percent chance of snow, with highs predicted to be in the low 30s and light snow accumulation possible.

Saturday night there could be snow, freezing rain and sleet, with additional accumulation, and Sunday there could be additional wintry precipitation in the morning, according to the forecast.

Meanwhile, temperatures remain unseasonably cold for this time of year, with daytime highs not even cresting the freezing mark.
