Sunday's Weather Forecast 10/27/13
I said yesterday that Saturday would turn less windy. I was partially right. It was a touch less windy, but that breeze was still pretty chilling on Saturday. With more sunshine, however, it was a pretty nice day.
I'm going to be safe for Sunday and not give up totally on the breeze, but each day, it becomes less windy. Temperatures in the 50s again.
First few days of the new work week are pretty peaceful with sunny, cool days and chilly nights. Temperatures actually increase into the 60s around Halloween but we also introduce some showers into the picture, as well. At this juncture, none of the rain looks like it will ruin trick or treating (if your area does it on Halloween night) but showers are possible at any time from mid-week on as a slow-moving front heads in.

Saturday's Weather Forecast 10/26/13
Tranquil weather continues into the coming week but things start to slide downhill around Halloween as a system moves in from the west. Not a lot of rain is in the cards, but can't guarantee a totally dry holiday, either. I'll try to work on that. :) One good thing for many folks will be that temperatures will moderate even more into the new week, perhaps flirting with 60 by mid-week.

Friday's Weather Forecast 10/25/13
The windy, chilly pattern continues Friday before the bone-chilling breeze dies down a bit for the weekend, despite it staying on the cool side. Each of the coming days will feature a mix of sun, clouds, and random rain/snow showers with temperatures rising eventually into the 50s by weekend's end.
A generally tranquil pattern continues into next week with temperatures rebounding a bit closer to seasonal rather than the below-seasonal levels we've been experiencing.
County Officials Announce "Take Back" Initiative

First Snowflakes Fall in Schuylkill County
2:38pm: Sitting in my car on my lunch break and witnessed FLURRIES!! Location: Deer Lake
When we posted it to our page we got responses from Ashland, Hegins, Tremont, McAdoo, Primrose and other places all around Schuylkill County that saw flurries.
But while some places saw flurries, others did not. We got reports from Kelayres and Pottsville that they didn't see any of the white stuff.
It was reported earlier today that the Poconos were to see some snowflakes but the chances were slim for Schuylkill County to see it.
Did you see snowflakes where you live today?
Mayoral Candidate May Be Barred From Taking Office
Republican Dennis Wiessner, Mahanoy City, is running for mayor of the borough. He lost to Nancy Petritsch in the May primary by 6 votes but due to 79 Republican write-in votes, he is able to run in the general election in November.
But even if Wiessner does win the election, he may not be able to take office due to a felony conviction from over 40 years ago.
In 1972, Weissner was convicted of stealing 5 turkeys from a turkey coop just outside Allentown. At the time, he paid a $50 fine and was on probation for two years.
The rule comes from the Pennsylvania Constitution which states:
If Weissner does win and is unable to take office, the Mahanoy City Borough Council would then appoint a mayor who would serve a two year term.
This story was first reported by WNEP.

Thursday's Weather Forecast
After a good freeze early Thursday, the rest of Thursday turns out half decently with some sunshine but temperatures hanging mainly in the upper 40s to low 50s at best. A brief rain or snow shower is possible.
Similar weather is to be expected Friday and part of Saturday before our next system which may drop a few showers later in the weekend. Temperatures return to slightly less bone-chilling levels early next week but no real "mild" weather in view.

Today's Weather Forecast 10/22/13
Wednesday could turn downright raw as a low pressure skirts to the east. Most of the rain with this system will stay east, but we should get some of the action too. Wednesday temperatures may very well stay in the 40s (!) and with some rain falling, Wednesday may go down as downright nasty. Good soup weather.
Thursday things should improve, but the temperatures won't improve much. If we make it to 50, consider yourself lucky.
Welcome to November in October. Earlier this month, we had August in October. Too bad we never had much OCTOBER in October. :)

Schuylkill County High School Football Power Rankings - Week #8
Where does your team stand this week? We have a team surging up the ranks on a 5 game win streak.
Today's Weather Forecast 10/21/13
Things clouds up later on Monday, however, ahead of our next cold front which could produce some showers Tuesday when temperatures start their downward spiral.
Our mid-week storm potential isn't looking too impressive at this point, but Wednesday could turn out on the drearier side depending on the track of a storm. Either way, temperatures will feel more like November from Wednesday right through the end of the week and likely beyond!

Skook News - Week in Review - Week Ending 10/19/13
Today's Weather Forecast - 10/20/13
We rebound to the 60s Monday and Tuesday but the next cold front moves through Tuesday with some precipitation possible. The details of what happens beyond Tuesday are a bit tricky with some computer models indicating a mid-week cold rain event with perhaps even a few wet snow flakes mixed in, in far northern colder locations. Other computer models keep things from affecting us. Either way, one thing is for certain, Wednesday through week's end will feel more like November than October with temperatures struggling to make it out of the 40s!
October just can be normal, can it? From 80s for highs earlier this month to 40s for highs later in the month. Why can't we just have a few weeks of around 60 degrees? :)

Saturday's Weather Forecast - 10/19/2013
After any showers move out overnight Saturday into early Sunday, the rest of Sunday looks pretty decent too, but it'll be even chillier thanks to another cold front. Temperatures Sunday may not make it out of the 50s.
Monday and Tuesday we try to rebound a bit into the 60s again, but it's only temporary. Even CHILLIER air mid the coming week with temperatures struggling to get out of the 40s later in the week.

Today's Weather Forecast 10/18/2013
Friday will feature the return of some sun with after some possible morning clouds as our cold front exits the coast, with highs in the mid 60s.
Saturday looks partly sunny in the morning. Increasing clouds in the afternoon ahead of a secondary cold front. Highs in the mid 60s.
A few showers are possible Saturday night thanks to that front. They should clear out by Sunday making for another at least partly sunny day with highs notably cooler, this time only in the low 60s, perhaps upper 50s in the normally cooler locations.
Cool weather continues all of next week with the temperatures trying ever so slightly to rebound Tuesday only to be knocked down even bigger by late week when temperatures may struggle to get out of the 40s and low 50s!

Today's Weather Forecast - 10/17/13
A slow moving cold front and low pressure move through overnight Thursday into Friday with periods of light rain. Not looking for a ton of rain, but it'll be enough to moisten the ground and perhaps make driving slick on wet leaves Thursday night.
Friday things should quickly clear out with the sun returning. Temperatures mainly in the mid 60s which is cooler but still not too bad for October.
Both days of the weekend are similar with temperatures slowly slipping some more. But we'll REALLY start to feel the difference NEXT week as a series of dry cold fronts pass on through, reinforcing the cooler air and reminding us that old-man winter is just around the corner.

Schuylkill County High School Football Power Rankings - Week #7
After some tough losses, we are down to one undefeated team.
Today's Weather Forecast 10/16/13
A weak warm front moves through early Wednesday followed by a cool front that tries to head in from the west later in the day. The result will be more clouds than the past few days with temperatures a touch cooler, mainly in the upper 60s. Not to say we won't see "any" Wednesday sun, but it may be at a premium with the nearby fronts. Showers and drizzle are possible at any time, as well, but not looking for a big rain maker here.The cool front somewhat "stalls" over the area late Wednesday, but enough out of the way that Thursday may feature more sun. High temperatures, if we get that sun Thursday, could soar back into the 70
s one more time.
A low pressure system rides along that front, however later on Thursday making Thursday night and perhaps early Friday showery (with perhaps a few periods of downright rain). Assuming the low and front keep cruising east, however, Friday may end up pretty nice by later in the morning (or even earlier) with sun returning and temperatures in the mid 60s.
Expect a downward trend in temperatures beyond the three day as yet another cool front or two have their eyes set on Schuylkill County later in the weekend and/or early next week. Looks like that "real" autumn chill that has somewhat avoided Schuylkill County so far this season may begin next week.
Tuesday, October 15, 2013
Today's Weather Forecast - 10/15/13
Tuesday should be another pretty nice day after any morning low clouds and fog burn off (sound familiar?) Highs should average in the upper 60s to low 70s in normally warmer parts of the county.
Wednesday will cloud up ahead of our next system, a cold front. Showers are possible mainly in the afternoon and evening. Despite the clouds, temperatures will still be deep into the 60s and low 70s.
Don't get used to the mild weather, however. A pretty notable cool down looks to be in the cards in the long term, starting Thursday which will be our transition day. Some sun should return after the showers depart. Temperatures again will be in the 60s but a series of secondary cold fronts will knock temperatures down even more as we proceed into week's end and the coming weekend.

Columbus Day Weather Forecast 10/14/13
Your Columbus Day holiday looks to not be that different from your Saturday and Sunday with clouds (especially in the morning), some sun, and temperatures in the upper 60s. Yet again still can't totally rule out a passing shower, but the chances of that are almost gone. But don't expect another half-month dry spell like we recently had late in September and early October. We're in a more active pattern now.
Tuesday is our totally calm day with any morning clouds and fog burning off into partly sunny skies and temperatures approaching the low 70s.
Wednesday things start going downhill again as our next cold front and potential associated low pressure approach. They'll be a chance of showers, especially later in the day, with highs in the upper 60s to low 70s.

| Picture from Schuylkill County Firewire |
A car driven by a 73 year old woman pulled out from Molleystown Road in front of another car causing a fuel tank to catch fire and burst into flames.
Today's Weather Forecast: 10/13/13
Monday (a day off for some people) will tend to start on the cloudy side once again but end on the sunnier side. Highs in the upper 60s to low 70s if we can get some sun. Yet again can't totally rule out a shower.
Tuesday should be a mainly sunny day with highs in the low 70s which is actually at least 5 to 10 degrees above normal for this time of year. Far from the 80s of two weeks ago, but still mild. October has been quite the mild month so far.
Things start to get unstable again towards the end of the week with more precipitation likely.

Mark Kessler Termination Hearing Postponed After Loaded Gun Falls To Floor
What has already been a media circus, this hearing did not disappoint either.
Suspended Gilberton Chief's Termination Hearing Tonight
Word is news crews are already beginning to park outside Gilberton's Borough Building.
While the whole thing started because of Kessler making Youtube videos with the Borough's guns, the hearing is expected to focus on unrelated job performance issues. Some charges are that Kessler didn't fill out mandatory government crime forms, use a law enforcement discount to get tires for his own vehicle, destroying borough property and was insubordinate towards council members.
