A few showers will occur tonight into Wednesday as a series of
strong cold fronts move to the south and east of the Keystone
state. 

Dry weather is expected for Thursday into Friday, as high pressure
builds into the region. 

A damaging freeze is expected Wednesday night across much of the 
area. Southeastern Pennsylvania will have temperatures mainly 
above freezing Wednesday night, as winds stay up. While Thursday 
night will be a bit milder, lighter winds will aid in the 
formation of frost. 

Much warmer weather will prevail for the upcoming weekend, as a 
series of low pressure systems track to the west of the mountains.

Lows tonight will be mainly in the 40s. Highs on Wednesday will 
range from the 40s across the northwest, to the 50s and 60s across
the south and east. However, temperatures will likely drop during
the mid to late afternoon hours. Lows Wednesday night will drop 
well into the 20s across the north. Southeastern portions of the 
Keystone state will have the best chance to stay above freezing.

High temperatures on Thursday will be mainly only in the 50s. Lows
Thursday night will be mainly in the 30s, with the warmest
readings across the far west.
