Snow

As winter fades and spring approaches, many outdoor enthusiasts shift from snowmobiling and skiing to activities like biking, hiking, and ATV riding. However, each seasonal transition brings unique risks for injuries and accidents that can turn a fun day outdoors into a trip to the emergency department. Whether you’re enjoying the last days of winter sports or gearing up for springtime adventures, taking preventive measures can help keep you safe.

Are you a homebuilder or a contractor managing a construction site? As you know, this type of work can be a little tricky during late winter and early spring in Central Pennsylvania. This “mud season” presents a variety of weather and changing site conditions, so there are certain things to keep in mind if your site has any exposed earth during this time of year:

SUNBURY — A large portion of the Susquehanna Valley will likely see 1-3 inches of snow Saturday before a changeover to sleet, freezing rain then all rain on Sunday, according to an AccuWeather meterologist.

TURBOTVILLE — Turbotville Borough Council at its most recent meeting agreed to discontinue the Statewide Tax Collecting service and accept the contract offered by Keystone Collections.

Saturday’s winter storm is likely to cause slippery driving and walking conditions but not a significant accumulation of snow, according to an AccuWeather meteorlogist.
