Read the latest forecast for Pennsylvania from the National Weather Service.

Central Pennsylvania residents can expect a hot and humid weekend with isolated to scattered thunderstorms, with temperatures climbing into the 80s and 90s and potential for localized heavy rainfall. A nearly stationary thunderstorm has already dumped 3-6 inches of rain in southcentral Schuylkill County, prompting a flash flood warning that ended early this morning.

Throughout Saturday, additional scattered thunderstorms are possible, with a 30%-40% chance of precipitation and potential for locally heavy rainfall exceeding two inches. Sunday is forecast to be hotter than Saturday; it’ll feel like the upper 90s in some parts of the state. A cold front moving from the Lower Great Lakes will trigger more thunderstorm activity, though severe weather is not expected. The early part of next week will start dry, but thunderstorm chances return Tuesday and Wednesday as a weather system moves through the region. Hurricane Erin’s movement away from the East Coast is expected to bring drier conditions by the latter half of the week.Hot, humid weekend with scattered storms forecast for central Pa.
