Can anyone believe that parts of central/west Pennsylvania recieved over 18 inches of snow last Sunday into Monday? 

Well you should believe it because certain areas in the higher elevations woke up Monday morning to a winter wonderland in late-April.

This area fortunately skipped out on this, but cold temperatures and gloomy weather did partake within the last couple of days.

The good news is that the weather will slightly settle with about average temperatures and April-like weather conditions during the rest of the week.

Today was partly sunny with a slight chance of a stray shower. The high temperatures reached the low 60s with a west wind of 5 to 8 mph.

As for the evening, clouds will start to increase as a disturbance from the west begins to enter the western part of the state. Showers are most likely to begin after 2 am. The temperatures will stay steady in the low- to mid-40s. 

Thursday will be the most unsettled part of the week, as this disturbance passes the region bringing showers and possible thunderstorms in the afternoon. The high temperatures are expected to be in the lower 60s with a southwest wind of 5 to 10 mph.

As the weekend begins on Friday, expect cooler conditions with partly cloudy skies. The high temperatures will hover around the 60-degree mark. It may become breezy in the afternoon with a northwest wind at 10 to 15 mph.

The rest of the weekend may yet again be dark and grey as another storm system takes over the area.

More updates on Friday.
