CWS Forecast: Ridge and Valley Region 

A calm week is in store for any holiday travel and last minute Christmas shopping. We will see temperatures gradually climb this week, eventually reaching the low to mid 50s for some by the end of the work week. Cloud cover wise, we can expect a partly to mostly sunny sky through at least Thursday morning. The pattern begins to change Thursday afternoon as a low pressure system moves into the region. This will not bring any snow to Pennsylvania. This system will consist of mainly rain, lasting into the overnight hours on Friday. For those hoping for a white Christmas It’s a little early to give a definite prediction, however the chance for a white Christmas with snow falling seems low at this point in time across most of the United States.
