Good morning, Lancaster.

The Lancaster Snow Angels nonprofit has received nearly 200 sign-ups for free snow removal from vulnerable residents amid icy conditions that slow cleanup with only 55 volunteers available.

The organization is seeking more volunteers to help ensure timely assistance for essential appointments and daily needs.

Yesterday, the Wagner-Wood-Bear family turned a plow-created snow pile on Manor Street into a colorful fort by decorating it with ice balls made from water-filled balloons and food coloring — a nod to childhood memories of the 1996 blizzard.

The fort bears the number 2026.

During a snowstorm on Sunday, Jan.

25, a baby was delivered in a tractor trailer and needed neonatal resuscitation before emergency crews transported the newborn to a hospital (a local plow operator helped escort the ambulance).

A winter storm dropped heavy snow across Pennsylvania from Jan.

24 to Jan. 26, with Clarion County seeing up to 23.0 inches and Lancaster County reaching between 5.0 and 13.0 inches (NWS reports).

A Cold Weather Advisory was in effect from 7 p.m. Monday to 10 a.m. Tuesday as temperatures dropped near zero but felt like -5 to -15.

The chill will continue into late this week — record lows are expected Wednesday and Thursday, and an offshore low may bring weekend snow.

The Pennsylvania Board of Game Commissioners has given preliminary approval to start the 2026 firearms deer season on the Saturday after Thanksgiving—this follows earlier discussions on a pre-Thanksgiving start and precedes a final vote in April.
