Unsettled weather and a touch of humidity will approach Harrisburg before a stretch of sunny, dry and less humid conditions move in at midweek.
Harrisburg will be sandwiched between two storm systems on Sunday. The first storm system will spread showers and thunderstorms across New England while the second storm system will bring strong thunderstorms to the Ohio Valley.

A cold front will swing toward the East Coast at early week, bringing with it the threat for a shower or thunderstorm.
According to AccuWeather Meteorologist Ed Vallee, "Muggy conditions will invade the region with daytime high temperatures well into the 80s."

"The approaching front will spark showers and thunderstorms, mainly on Monday afternoon" he added.
These storms are expected to remain below severe limits but could contain gusty winds and brief downpours.
After the passage of the cold front, a stretch of refreshing weather looks to take hold into the weekend.
