Meanwhile, a weak cold front dropping south across the Commonwealth this afternoon may bring a stray shower or thunderstorm across our southern counties, though mainly dry conditions are otherwise expected. Today`s high temperatures will range from the lower 80s across the Northern Tier to the low-to- mid 90s over the Lower Susquehanna Valley, with tomorrow`s highs mainly in the 80s for most aside from areas of lower 90s across Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. Unsettled weather is expected on Saturday as a stronger cold front moves through, bringing a chance for widespread showers and perhaps some thunderstorms capable of producing gusty winds and heavy rain. This front will help to scour out the wildfire smoke from our area, with Sunday looking to bring sunnier and drier weather with seasonable temperatures and a northwesterly breeze. $$
