As temperatures drop and snow begins to fall, residents in the area are preparing for the winter season.
After some mild temperatures earlier
this month, it has gotten a lot colder
and it's feeling a lot more like winter.
>> Yeah. 22 News Storm Team meteorologist
Adam Shanco working for you after seeing
if people are ready for this winter
weather. Well, Nick and Sierra, there
definitely has been a winter chill in
the air and it looks like it might be
sticking around.
Most of the leaves are now off the trees
and temperatures really dropped this
week with highs only getting up into the
30s and 40s. There were even some
flurries and snow showers around and
some spots in the hills and the
Birkshars picked up a couple inches of
snow. Our average high temperature for
this time of year at WTover Air Reserve
Bas in Chapie is right around 50° and
our low temperatures are usually in the
lower 30s. Some people 22 News talked to
don't mind the cooler weather we've been
having.
>> I like all the different seasons. Um,
you know, I wouldn't want to live
someplace where it's the same all the
time. Um, so I enjoy the warmth, but I
also enjoy the cool temperatures.
>> Oh, I love it. I think it's wonderful. I
enjoy the fall. It's one of my favorite
uh seasons. And I don't mind the cold
weather. I love the sun, though. Yes, I
appreciate the sun. Um, not so much the
gray.
>> People took advantage of the sunshine
and just bundled up for the colder
temperatures.
