Chilly Mornings, Afternoon Warm-ups Into Tuesday

When you stepped outside this morning, I bet you noticed it was rather chilly. Here in State College, it dropped down to 45. Ok, so 45 isn't that bad, but I thought it was a little nippy. Tomorrow morning, on the other hand, you might want to bundle up a bit more than usual. Temps tomorrow morning are expected to dip down to a down right cold 35 degrees! Clear skies and light winds will allow for exceptional cooling conditions. Frost advisories have been issued for most of the state with freeze warnings farther north where temps could fall below freezing. Both advisories and warnings won't go into effect until overnight. Although, these aren't record low temperatures, they are noticeably below average. Once that sun rises and warms up the ground, things will start to change. It will progressively feel warmer as the day goes on with those clear skies dominating the area. Highs will reach the low to mid 60s which is right where they should be. A light jacket (don't forget those sun glasses too!) is all you should need for the rest of the day. Overall, a typical, beautiful autumn day! Almost a carbon copy of today. Looking beyond Tuesday, the forecast is looking a bit wet. Details tomorrow. Check back!
