High temperatures will be in the upper 50s & low 60s on Monday, with gusts up to 30-35 mph.
Good evening,
A quiet night across the Susquehanna Valley with a mostly clear sky as temperatures drop into the mid-40s for lows.
An upper-level low will swing through the Northeast on Monday, bringing the chance of a stray shower early in the day, mainly northwest of Harrisburg. Otherwise, expect a mix of clouds and sunshine. It’ll be a much windier day, with sustained winds around 15 to 25 mph and gusts reaching 35 mph at times.
There will be a brief warm-up to the mid-60s Tuesday and Wednesday before rain and much chillier air arrives.
Get ready for a big cooldown late next week! Much colder air will move into the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic behind an area of low pressure Thursday and Friday. Highs will drop to the low 50s Thursday, then fall into the mid-40s by Friday. That’s quite a change!
Rain showers are expected to develop Thursday, with a chilly rain lingering into Friday before tapering off. You may have seen some forecasts suggesting accumulating snow in south-central PA on Friday. There is NO RISK of an accumulating snowfall event in the Susquehanna Valley at this time. All the modeling that showed accumulating snow has backed off and is agreeing with the cold rain solution. As the system pulls away, a few snowflakes could even mix in at higher elevations Friday with very little, if any, accumulation. It will also be breezy, making this our first real taste of chilly air this season.
It remains chilly Saturday, with mostly cloudy skies and highs in the upper 40s. We’ll see more sunshine return Sunday and into early the following week, helping temperatures bounce back into the mid-50s. That’s right around average for mid-November, although a bit of a breeze will keep it feeling cooler at times.
Have a great night!
