A major late-season snowfall takes aim at the Poconos early this week and we’ll feel impacts in the city and suburbs as well. A NEXT Weather Alert will be in effect from Monday night into Tuesday afternoon with this storm. It’s a complex setup as we watch an area of low-pressure move offshore from the Carolinas late tonight and start to make its way up the coast. Similar to Friday night’s storm, it will strengthen offshore, but this one is expected to stick around longer and grow stronger just offshore, leading to a prolonged period of impacts starting Monday morning and continuing through Wednesday.Source: CBS PHILADELPHIAIn this article, we’ll discuss some tips you can follow to make your winter easier for the next two days.Concrete Safe Ice MeltSafe PawThe Original and the #1 Pet and Child Safe Ice Melt for over 20 years.
