Schuylkill County Weather Forecast for June 20th

It’s the first day of summer here in Schuylkill County and it sure feels like it.

Summer officially begins at 4:50 p.m. today.

Temperatures will get within a whispering distance of 90° or go over that once again today and tomorrow and the next day and the day after that.

After a while, your body will have adjusted to this heat … probably.

A bit of a concerning trend though is the lack of any significant chance of rain anywhere in the next 7 days.
