Lancaster, PA Homeowners Can Expect a Cool and Dry Fall, Says The Old Farmer's Almanac

"The Old Farmer's Almanac has released its 2025 fall outlook, and for Lancaster, PA, the forecast calls for a cooler and drier-than-normal season. While the western half of the U.S. basks in lingering warmth, the Northeast and Appalachians-including Pennsylvania-are bracing for a brisk autumn. But while the state is seeing a cool down, several suburbs like Lancaster are having a red hot moment after being named among the top ZIP codes in the country this year."

"In the Appalachians region, September is expected to average 65°F with about 3 inches of rain-2 inches below normal. By October, the temperature dips to 53°F, about a degree below normal, with only 2.5 inches of rain. That means Lancaster residents should expect a mix of sunny, warm days early in the season, followed by thunderstorms mid-September, before settling into cooler, drier weather in October. This climate cocktail could make for a brilliant foliage season across central Pennsylvania."
