I won't say that PA is unique, but the weather in PA is extremely diverse depending on location. Interstate 80 seems to be a line through the center of the state where things change. There can be a 40 degree difference between Erie, PA & Pittsburgh, PA. In addition to that, Erie is subject to lake effect weather (think Buffalo, NY) while, in the opposite corner, Philly has the Atlantic Ocean. This is why my previous post included "depending on where the OP is in Pennsylvania".
