Happy almost weekend! Looks like we might be in for some ok weather. And I hear there's a sportsball thingy going on around 3 p.m. Sunday. Appropriate wishes to all who observe.
1. Today should be partly sunny with a high around 38 degrees. The National Weather Service at Mt. Holly, NJ, says tomorrow will be a little warmer and still partly sunny. Sportsball Day, er, Sunday, will be even warmer but more cloudy.
2. The Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce hosted its annual economic forecast where an economist delivered some less-than-great news.
3. The South Side of Easton will lose its only bank this spring.
4. Northampton County has unveiled its Major Crimes Task Force so it can be "ready for anything."
5. Things must be really hopping in Northampton County this week, as it was also removed from the state's drought list.
