Avon Headed for the Deep Freeze This Week

Temperatures will be unseasonably cold and another snowstorm may be headed our way.

After a glimpse of spring-like temperatures over the weekend, Avon is headed into the depths of winter this week.

Temperatures in Avon will be even colder than normal for the third week in January, according to the National Weather Service. The weather service warns that "prolonged exposure to these dangerously cold conditions could result in frostbite, hypothermia, or death."

Snow that started on Monday night is expected to end Tuesday morning, with accumulations of 1 to 3 inches likely.

The high for Tuesday should be 26 degrees with the low forecast as 6 degrees.

Wednesday and Thursday look to be the coldest days with a high of 19 and a low around 4 for Wednesday, and similar temperatures predicted for Thursday.

Another winter storm may be on its way for Friday. The National Weather Service now predicts a 50 percent chance of precipitation.

Keep that winter gear around because temperatures are not likely to see the 30s again until next Monday.

I believe the word you want is "hear", not "here".

Obama is a Marxist who hates America and everything it stands for. He's wants to destroy thisRead More country as much as any Taliban extremist, only with economic disaster (i.e. ObamaCare) instead of bombs and airplanes. But here's the irony...Obama's not the problem. The real problem is that people like you, Liz, will be around long after Obama's term as president is over. If people like you could be duped into voting for someone like Obama twice, it could happen again and again. I pray that this country will wake up soon and realize the horrific mistake that it's made and get this great nation back on a path to freedom and opportunity. If people like you, Liz, continue to prevail, then I pray for my children's future, for it will truly be bleak…
