As a bulk salt supplier headquartered in Bucks County, PA, you can rest assured that we always make sure we are aware of the weather patterns, and what may be in store for any upcoming winter season. Therefore, this time around, we thought it would be great to share with you, our faithful customer (or potential customer), what you might be in store for this winter season as per NBC10’s 1^st Alert Weather Chief Meteorologist, Mr. Glenn “Hurricane” Schwartz.

What’s the weather looking like for the 2016-17 winter season?

According to Mr. Schwartz, there is a 10% chance that the Philadelphia area will see over 40 inches of snow. He also anticipates that we will most likely receive 30-35 inches and that there may be one Nor’easter that drops more than 10 inches. A few of his other predictions include:

• February being the snowiest month.
• March having the least snow.
• A temperature forecast of a couple of mild periods of 2+ weeks with above normal temperatures.

Remember, Mother Nature Can Always Change Her Mind.

There is no doubt about it, Mother Nature is unpredictable and not every meteorologist is going to be 100% correct. However, it’s always better to be prepared than not be prepared, and if there is one thing you can take away from Mr. Glenn “Hurricane” Schwartz’s 2016-17 winter forecast, it’s that there will be snow.
