With our current thinking, the eastern-based band could make marginal impacts over northwest Pennsylvania between mid-morning and the mid-afternoon, including for folks in Mercer and Lawrence Counties. For everyone, cloudy skies will persist with a northwesterly breeze keeping highs down in the low 40s.
