Present conditions here in Central PA feel more like fall with closer to normal temperatures today and the same is expected tomorrow in regards to temperatures. Even though we have sunny skies today, don’t expect the same for tomorrow as we are forecasting clouds to dominate the skies. There’s even a possibility of some showers around game time, but we have to see if the system moves north enough for that to happen.
Looking ahead to the latter half of the weekend and into early next week, we expect a warm up with temperatures in the upper 70s and low 80s. Sunny skies expected for Sunday, but cloudy conditions will occur on Monday and Tuesday.
Heavy rain moved into the Commonwealth throughout the day on Thursday, bringing much needed drought relief.
