forecast
The low winter sun illuminated central
Pennsylvania yesterday, partially unobstructed by clouds,
compliments of a high-pressure system south of the
region. The westerly winds circulating around the system
will bring milder air into the region for much of the
rest of the week, with an occasional clipper system to
the north enhancing cloud cover. Another storm will bring
some flurries Sunday.
