The looming threat of nasty winter weather — forecasts call for as much as 2 inches of snow today, followed by bitterly cold temperatures — has forced organizers to postpone today’s 19th annual Jingle Bell Jog.
The event has been rescheduled until the morning of New Year’s Eve.
The schedule of activities, from a cookie chase to 5K runs and walks, will remain the same.
The event is sponsored by the Iola High School track and field team.
Despite today’s gloomy forecast, the cold snap should be over by midweek.
