Discussion
Colder air will push into the Mid-Atlantic region today following the passage of a cold front and this time, the chilly air will stick around. After the threat of occasional light rain today, Canadian high pressure will take control of the weather as we head into the weekend and it’ll help to anchor this chilly air mass in place. As a result, temperatures should stay below-normal from today through Monday with the return of milder air later next week. One final note and for those interested, it looks like it’ll be chilly (40’s) and dry tomorrow in State College, PA for the noontime game between Penn State and Michigan.
