Discussion
Low pressure will push from the central Plains towards the Ohio Valley later today and tonight and it will push a warm frontal system into the region by early tomorrow which will be followed by the passage of a cold frontal system on Friday night. A couple of showers are possible this morning across SE PA and occasional showers are likely later today and tonight. On Friday, it'll turn warmer and there will be occasional rain and perhaps a strong thunderstorm or two. Some of the rain can be heavy at times later tomorrow just ahead of the strong cold frontal system. Winds will pick up noticeably late tomorrow night and Saturday will be a windy, dry day with cooler conditions and mainly sunny skies. Another strong cold front arrives on Sunday with the likelihood of more shower activity in the Mid-Atlantic region.
