Discussion
A cold front will approach the region later today raising the chances of showers and thunderstorms and some of the storms can be on the strong-to-severe side; especially, in upstate PA. High pressure returns for the mid-week and then another weak cool front will arrive on Thursday night. Following that frontal passage, late week and weekend temperatures will drop back a few degrees to rather comfortable levels for this time of year. Contrary to my earlier thinking, it looks like the colder air that has been bottled up in Canada will remain up there into at least the middle of the month and it may wait to make an appearance around here until after another bout in the eastern US with a tropical system.
