Arctic Air to Follow Winter Storm Harper
The worst part of this snowstorm may not be the accumulation but what follows. Forecasters are predicting that an arctic blast of air will rush in after the precipitation moves out of the area. Low temperatures are expected to drop to 1 on Sunday night. The frigid air is expected to stay through at least Monday when temperatures could struggle to get out of the single digits in some parts of Schuylkill County.
