By Kyle Imhoff

Warmer than normal, and summer-like, conditions will dominate the next 7 days across Pennsylvania with very little in the way of widespread, organized precipitation until early next week.

Warmer than normal, and summer-like, conditions will dominate the next 7 days across Pennsylvania with very little in the way of widespread, organized precipitation until early next week.

A slow-moving front will exit the region later Wednesday evening, bringing the end to any lingering showers across the state. For the remainder of the week and into the weekend, highs will be predominantly in the upper 70s-low 80s with partly to mostly sunny skies. Some scattered showers/thunderstorms are possible Saturday and Sunday, mainly in the afternoon hours. The best chance of organized precipitation will arrive in the form of a front located just to the north of Pennsylvania that will provide the focus for rain later Sunday evening into the day on Monday. There is a slight possibility that a storm forming off the coast of the Southeast will bring additional moisture and, thus, rainfall to the area Monday and Tuesday. Temperatures will remain mild (highs in the upper 70s-low 80s and lows in the upper 50s-near 60) through next Wednesday. Temperatures will fall to near normal levels for the latter half of next week.

We are taking students out to southern Manitoba to Hespler Farms! Farmer Wayne will teach students how he plants and cares for his potato crop and why potatoes are such a unique crop to grow. Teachers, check out your AITC Dashboard for Math'd Potatoes, a potato-themed classroom resource to pair with this tour video. Thank you to Peak of the Market and Penner Farm Services for making this event possible.
