[ Wednesday, Jan. 22, 2003 ]
Believe it or not, the coldest day is yet to come. Due to low temperatures tonight and overcast skies, the high temperature will struggle to climb abover 20 degrees tomorrow. With this cloud cover comes the chance of scattered flurries or snow showers associated with a low pressure system tracking far to the south. The brunt of this storm will be felt mainly in the Southern states, while Pennsylvania should only receive mostly cloudy skies and stray flurries. Later this weekend, temperatures will approach 30 degrees for the first time in a couple weeks.
