WEEKEND WEATHER FORECAST

It’s been a long time since I was able to post a forecast early on Friday for the upcoming weekend and have confidence that things wouldn’t significantly change in a day or so.

The forecast situation for this weekend looks to be different, where high pressure builds in from the northwest and centers itself over PA, heralding in what has become an anomaly–  an extended period of dry weather!
