WHEN COAL WAS KING: Allentown Covered Bridge, 1932
Covered bridges were once common throughout the United States, but more prevalent in the Midwest and New England. America’s first covered bridge crossed the Schuylkill River at Philadelphia in 1806. At their peak, there may have been 14,000 throughout the country, but today only about 700 survive in 29 states. Pennsylvania has the most – 209 bridges in 34 of its 67 counties. In Washington state only five authentic covered bridges remain. The Allentown Bridge crossing over railroad tracks as seen in this 1932 photo by Thomas P. Blum isn’t one of them. It burned to the ground in 1958.

Monday’s Weather At Your Fingertips
East Texas (KLTV/KTRE) - Here is the Weather Where You Live... An upper-level trough is likely to remain in place over the central U.S. over the next 5 days. This will allow for rain chances to be fairly high through Friday. As we get into the weekend, High Pressure will build in from the East...dropping our rain chances from very good to just slight by Sunday and Monday. At this time, the chances for strong/severe thunderstorms is low, however a few general thunderstorms will be possible each day bringing in brief, heavy rainfall and gusty wind. Rainfall totals over the next 5-7 days appear to be in the 1.00″ to 2.00″ over the northern half of East Texas and closer to 2.00″-3.50″ over the southern half of our area (Deep East Texas). A stationary front is expected to remain over East Texas for a few days allowing a focal point for this rain. After mid-week, we are likely to see more “Sea-Breeze” type rain with most of it being over Deep East Texas, however, many are possible over northern areas as well. Some flash flooding will be possible just about any day this week, so please remain alert to this possibility. Temperatures will remain well below normal through the next week as well. Our normal highs for this time of year are in the 94°-96° range...so we stay cooler and wetter than normal into the weekend. Have a great day and remember those umbrellas.
