As we head into the midweek period, a cold front associated with a Canadian low will push south, bringing some cooler temperatures with clear skies Wednesday night. Thursday and Friday will see a chance at rain with the progression of another low pressure system approaching from the West. Some showers on Friday afternoon could have a few rumbles of thunder. Conditions will improve across the state on Saturday, as a high pressure begins to build in. Skies will clear and temperatures will remain mild as we head into the first week of classes for Penn State University.
