...SCATTERED FROST MAY OCCUR TONIGHT OVER THE NORMALLY COLDER
SUBURBS...

A COLD FRONT MOVED SOUTH OF THE REGION LAST NIGHT. THIS HAS ALLOWED
CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE ASSOCIATED WITH A CHILLY AUTUMNAL AIRMASS TO
BUILD OVER THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC STATES.

TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN COOL TODAY AND THEN DROP TO 40 TO 45 IN
PHILADELPHIA BUT INTO THE UPPER 30S IN SOME OF THE SUBURBS. SKIES
WILL BE CLEAR AND WINDS WILL BE LIGHT. ALTHOUGH TEMPERATURES AT THE
OBSERVING SHELTER SHOULD STAY ABOVE FREEZING...THE GROUND
TEMPERATURES IN THE COLDER SUBURBS MAY DROP BELOW FREEZING ALLOWING
LIGHT FROST TO FORM.

AS THE CHILLY AIR APPROACHES, IT'S A GOOD TIME TO HARVEST WHATEVER 
IS LEFT IN THE GARDEN THAT MIGHT NOT WITHSTAND THE FROST AND COLD 
TEMPERATURES.  ALSO, BE SURE TO BRING YOUR POTTED PLANTS INDOORS, OR 
COVER THEM.

TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO REBOUND TO MORE NORMAL LEVELS TOWARD 
THE END OF THE WEEK.
