National Weather Service Meteorologist Evan Webb says another round of winter weather may be on its way to the area this weekend.
“An unusually strong storm system that’s going to bring rain, strong winds,” Webb said. “It’s possible that another Wind Advisory will be issued at some point late in the week, and then some much colder air behind that system over the weekend.”
With winter weather in the forecast, the U.S. Postal Service is asking customers to help mail carriers by clearing snow and ice from sidewalks, stairs, and mailboxes.
Uneven surfaces, wet pavement, and snow and ice can pose a threat to postal service employees, so maintaining a clear path to the mailbox will help letter carriers maintain consistent delivery service. Customers that receive curbside delivery should remove snow piles to maintain access to mailboxes.
Additionally, post offices will be closed Monday, January 15 in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Regular operations will resume Tuesday.
