If you need to catch up on your Christmas shopping and don’t want to go out in a massive rainstorm to do it, today’s your day.
We’re looking at temps nearing 50 once again under a sunny sky here in Schuylkill County. That’s the complete opposite of what to expect on Sunday and Monday here.
Right now, it looks like National Weather Service is being conservative in its rainfall estimates. Don’t be surprised to see flood watches go up during the day on Saturday covering Sunday and Monday. And we could be looking at more than 3 inches of rain between Sunday afternoon and Monday morning.
