KEY MESSAGE 1...
Fall weather with dry conditions is expected through Tuesday
evening as high pressure affects the region. The exception may
be Sunday evening when a few light rain showers may briefly
drift in from the east across Northwest Pennsylvania. Temperatures
will be near to slightly below normal over the next several
days with highs in the upper 60s and lower 70s and lows in the
upper 40s to mid 50s each day. By late Wednesday, weak low
pressure will move into the Midwest and Great Lakes region.
Forecast has trended drier on Wednesday with only isolated rain
showers, increasing a bit in coverage on Thursday and Friday. No
thunderstorms are forecast.

once again increase by several knots by late Sunday
morning/early Sunday afternoon. Periodic gusts to around 20
