The first frost advisory of the year has landed in Pennsylvania due to clear skies, according to the National Weather Service.
The National Weather Service has issued its first frost warning of the season for central Pennsylvania this weekend.
There could be patches of frost throughout the midstate, especially in low-altitude areas such as valleys and along the Susquehanna, between 1 a.m. and 9 a.m. tonight, according to Rachel Buvala, a meteorologist with the NWS. October’s temperatures last year were much higher, according to Buvala. The average minimum temperature throughout October last year was 46 degrees, and Oct. 8′s minimum temperature was 51 degrees, Buvala said.
The reason for this drop could be the high pressure air moving over the east coast that clears the skies, according to Buvala. Buvala explained a lack of clouds makes it easier for heat to exit the atmosphere, allowing the nighttime temperature to decrease. Sunday and Monday should warm considerably in comparison to Saturday night, according to the National Weather Service.
