Tomorrow will be just as warm - the eighth straight day in the mid 70s or higher - but thunderstorms are possible.
The bad new is, well, to be expected.
It is mid-October, after all, when highs are normally in the mid 60s and lows average in the upper 40s.
Starting Friday, temperatures are expected to fall a little below that range for five straight days.
But don't worry about any frost just yet - at least in the Philadelphia area. Local lows should stay in the 40s.
Farther north and west, though, in places like Scranton and State College, Saturday's overnight lows could dip into the mid 30s.
In the Philadelphia area, the first frost occurs on average in the last week of October.
Looking further ahead, this winter is likely to be colder than it has been for years, according to AccuWeather.
It has to be snowier in the Philadelphia area, since hardly any snow fell last year.
Meteorologist Joe Bastardi predicts a rough December, followed by a January thaw, before another spell of bitter cold in late January and February.
The woolly worms of Lewisburg, Pa., disagree, however. After checking a batch of the crawly creatures over the weekend, observers prognosticated a mild winter, with just two or three days of school canceled because of snow, according to the Milton Daily Standard.
