Synopsis
Another week of dry, mostly sunny weather awaits the Commonwealth. With the exception of a weak disturbance that could bring showers to western half of the state, mostly sunny skies and temperatures steadily rising from the high 60s to low 80s will affect Pennsylvania throughout the week. A weak warm front will move through the region on Friday, bringing with it a chance of showers, but significant precipitation is not expected until the passage of a cold front on Sunday.
Short-Term (Through 0z Thursday)
Both the GFS and NAM agree that mostly sunny skies and temperatures in the high-60s and low-70s will affect the state on Monday. Though both models are indicating cloudier conditions on Tuesday due to a low pressure system passing to the north, only the NAM (particularly 06z Hi-Res NAM) is indicating showers for the western half of the state. Temperatures will be mostly in the 70s on Wednesday, with skies clearing once again.
Long-Term (Past 0z Thursday)
Thursday and Friday will again see generally clear skies and temperatures in the high 70s and low 80s. A weak warm front is predicted by the GFS to pass through the state Friday evening, but little rainfall is associated with this front. Skies will begin to cloud on Saturday as a result of an incoming cold front, which is predicted to pass through the state on Sunday, bringing with it widespread showers and more seasonally cool air.
