Regional Weather Summary

National Weather Service State College PA

455 AM EDT Wed May 8 2024



A cluster of showers and thunderstorms over the southern mountains

early this morning will push across the Lower Susquehanna Valley

and into the Southeastern Piedmont and Lower Delaware Valley,

exiting into NJ by mid-morning. A dry cold front will drop across

the state today. This will help the sky clear out from north to 

south later this morning and throughout the afternoon. A breezy 

west wind will develop with the northern half of the Commonwealth 

seeing gusts peak close to 30 MPH. High temperatures will range 

from the upper 60s right along the Erie shoreline to the upper 80s

in Philadelphia.



The sky will cloud up again from the southwest starting early

tonight as a wave of low pressure moves along the old cold front 

which will be stalled out near the Mason-Dixon Line. Rain will 

hold off until later tonight, moving in from the southwest. The

rain should spread eastward Thursday morning. Expect widespread 

showers and a few thunderstorms to occur in a couple of waves on 

Thursday and into Friday. Some heavier rain is possible in any 

storms, and those would be mainly south of the Turnpike. Lows 

tonight will be in the upper 40s in the northern tier, and close 

to 60 in the far south. Highs will range from the mid 50s in the 

northwest to lower 70s in the southeast on Thursday.
