I had to mention the lack of snow didn’t I? I’ve been online to get work done the past few weeks but that’s about it due to a series of illnesses that my kids and I had – hopefully we’re in the clear now. Last night we were expected to get 1-4 inches of snow [...]
The snow started late last night (around 12am) and it hasn’t stopped since. After a series of disappointing storms where we received next to no snow it feels great to finally get a big storm! I almost forgot what the ground looked like covered in snow. Although its been a pretty dull snow season in [...]
The consensus from everyone I’ve talked to is a resounding “ugh” regarding the weather recently. The Poconos is known for snow and winter fun – not lukewarm weather and flooding in January. The ski resorts are closed(except one) due to the weather – I can’t imagine that the Pocono businesses that thrive on the winter [...]
We had a surprise 3-4 inches over 2 weeks ago and our last substantial storm was over a month ago. With the warm weather and rain the past couple of days any remaining snow we had has all melted. I got all excited when this weather alert came in on Sunday – with our son [...]
Well, we missed what could have been a really big snowstorm for our area and escaped with just a few inches across the Poconos. About 2-5 inches fell across the region leaving a fresh coat of white powder, but nothing more then a typical storm and definitely not anything to write home about. For most [...]
The initial call was to be on watch from 6am Saturday to 6am Sunday, that has changed from some snow Sat(which we got maybe an inch) to tapering off around lunch time on Sunday. The track has greatly changed and predicted amounts have gone up and back down but currently it has only really been [...]
It is just before 1pm on Saturday December 19th and the snow is just starting to fall. Even now the snow seems to be falling with a lot more intensity then it normally does. This isn’t a “slow” snowfall, it is definitely falling with a purpose. Ever since the cold front came in earlier this [...]
The Poconos are definitely getting snow this weekend, the question is how much? It looks like the storm will arrive overnight tonight and last into late Saturday night/early Sunday morning. If you’re looking to travel to the Poconos this weekend it is definitely something you need to watch for and plan accordingly. Traveling tomorrow with [...]
This past Sunday, December the 13th, was predicted to be icy, and sure was it. The weekends are always busy in the Poconos with tourism in both the summer months and winter months it can make for crowded roadways. What made it especially traffic laden this weekend was the ice that arrived in the morning [...]
I woke up this morning and it was a brisk 14 degrees outside, by the time I took the above picture it had ‘warmed’ up to a not-so-balmy 19 degrees. It’s not expected to get too much warmer in the coming days, it looks like winter has finally set in. It has been incredibly windy [...]
