Forecast: Deep Freeze & Snow in South Whitehall This Week

It's a bitterly cold week in South Whitehall with daytime highs only in the 20s and wind that makes it feel much colder

There's snow in the forecast along with a big chill that will keep daytime high temperatures from rising out of the 20s for the rest of the week in South Whitehall. Wind chill will make it feel as cold as -2 today.

An arctic air mass is bringing the coldest weather so far this season -- perhaps even colder than anything we experienced last winter, according to the National Weather Service.

The higest temperature expected this week will be a very nippy 27 degrees on Saturday.

There's snow in the forecast for Wednesday, Thursday night and Friday:

  • Wednesday: A chance of flurries. Partly sunny, with a high near 22. Wind chill values as low as -2. West wind 8 to 13 mph.
  • Wednesday Night: A slight chance of snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 11. West wind around 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 20%.
  • Thursday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 25. Northwest wind 8 to 16 mph.
  • Thursday Night: A chance of snow, mainly after 1am. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 14. Chance of precipitation is 30%.
  • Friday: Snow likely, mainly after 1pm. Cloudy, with a high near 25. Chance of precipitation is 60%.

I contacted LVHN several months ago about volunteering with my son (8 years old) at the AndersonRead More campus. I would stay with him at all times and supervise him. I was told that they do not accept children. I think its a shame that the hospital will not accept him a a volunteer. I am trying to teach him how to give back to his community . Apparently the hospital does not want our help. I think several patients, especially older ones, would like getting assistance from a young child.

Tom, LVHN does not have an Anderson Campus. I believe you are referring to St Luke's Health Network.Read More LVHN is not able to accept volunteers under the age of 16 years old. There are many mandated reasons that young children are not allowed to volunteer in a hospital setting. Volunteering is a wonderful thing to teach your children. There are organizations in the Leigh Valley who are willing to utilize families. Please visit the Volunteer Center of the Leigh Valley for other opportunities in your area. www.volunteerlv.org
