Winter Storm Watch in Effect for Emmaus Saturday

It’s less than midway through autumn, but weather forecasters are saying we may be in for some snow on the pumpkin Saturday.

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Watch for Emmaus, the Lehigh Valley and points north and east. The watch calls for up to six inches of snow in the affected areas, particularly in higher mountain elevations.

However, the weather service forecast for Emmaus is only calling for about an inch of snow to fall starting late Friday night and into a chilly Saturday when the forecast high temperature is only 41 degrees.
