Regional Weather Summary

National Weather Service State College PA

1106 AM EDT Fri Oct 16 2026



A strong cold front is currently moving through northwestern 

Pennsylvania and will continue tracking southeastward throughout 

the day, exiting the Keystone State this evening. A line of 

strong-to-severe thunderstorms are expected along this cold front

with brief heavy downpours and damaging winds being the primary 

hazards. A brief spin-up tornado cannot be ruled out across 

portions of southeastern Pennsylvania this evening as the front 

moves through the area.



Additional lake-effect showers will be possible tonight into

Saturday morning across portions of the northern tier. There will

be some potential for snow showers across higher elevations of

northern Pennsylvania tonight with any accumulations limited to 

grassy surfaces in the highest elevations. Dry conditions prevail

Saturday morning and are expected to continue through the first 

half of the work week.



High temperatures today will range from the mid-60s across higher

elevations of northern Pennsylvania to the lower 80s across 

south-central Pennsylvania. Strong winds will continue into 

tonight and Saturday, as much colder air works into the area. Low

temperatures tonight will range from the upper 20s to mid-30s 

across northwestern Pennsylvania to the upper 40s across 

southeastern Pennsylvania. Cooler temperatures will continue to 

filter into the region with a hard freeze across portions of 

northern and western Pennsylvania Saturday night.
