Mild Week Ahead; Couple Chances For Rain In South Central Pennsylvania
Highs will be at or above average all week, but sunshine will come at a premium.
UNDISCOVERED SHIPWRECKS IN THE GREAT LAKES. NOW THE WGAL NEWS EIGHT STORM TEAM FORECAST WITH METEOROLOGIST MIKE SUSKO. GOOD MONDAY AFTERNOON. TODAY IT’S MOSTLY CLOUDY AND SEASONABLE ACROSS THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY. AND THEN TOMORROW WE’RE GOING TO SEE OUR TEMPERATURES GO ABOVE AVERAGE HERE ACROSS THE AREA AND COULD EVEN TOUCH 50 DEGREES. BUT AS WE GO INTO THE MIDDLE AND LATER PART OF THE WEEK, MULTIPLE CHANCES FOR SOME RAIN RETURNS TO THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY AS WELL. LIKE I SAID TOMORROW WE COULD HIT 50 DEGREES FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE JANUARY 13TH IN HARRISBURG, AND WHEN WE HAD A HIGH OF 51, AND TOMORROW, RIGHT AROUND THAT 50 DEGREE MARK. AND AS WE GO THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK, NOTICE THAT TEMPERATURES ACTUALLY DO REMAIN ABOVE AVERAGE FOR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. SO FOR YOU WARM WEATHER LOVERS, THIS IS THE STRETCH YOU KIND OF BEEN LOOKING FOR. EVEN AS WE GO INTO FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, TEMPERATURES ARE RIGHT AROUND THAT AVERAGE MARK FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK, INCLUDING IN YORK. RIGHT NOW WE’VE GOT A LOT OF CLOUD COVER, BUT IT IS DRY ACROSS THE AREA. AFTER WE PICKED UP ANYWHERE FROM AROUND A QUARTER TO JUST UNDER HALF AN INCH OF RAIN IN PARTS OF THE AREA LAST NIGHT. YORK AT THE MOMENT 37 DEGREES. THE WINDS ARE CALM AND VERY SIMILAR CONDITIONS FOR EVERYONE. 34 IS THE CURRENT TEMPERATURE IN LANCASTER, 36 IN CARLISLE, 36 ALSO IN HARRISBURG AND 38 IN CHAMBERSBURG. AS WE LOOK AT LIVE RADAR NETWORK, LIKE I SAID, WE’RE DRY. JUST GOT THE CLOUD COVER STILL HANGING AROUND HERE AS THE SYSTEM CONTINUES TO PULL AWAY LATER ON THROUGHOUT THE DAY TODAY. THROUGHOUT YOUR AFTERNOON, 42 WILL BE THE HIGH AND THOSE CLOUDS STICK AROUND AND THAT’S GOING TO HELP OUR TEMPERATURES KIND OF REMAIN STEADY AS WE GO THROUGH THE REST OF THE DAY. TONIGHT WE ONLY DROP BACK TO AROUND THE FREEZING MARK 32 DEGREES HERE, SO COULD SEE SOME FOG DEVELOP ACROSS THE AREA. SO KEEP THAT IN MIND FOR TOMORROW MORNING. HEADING TO WORK AND SCHOOL. YOU MAY ENCOUNTER SOME DENSE FOG IN PARTS OF THE AREA TOMORROW. MOSTLY CLOUDY, BUT THEN THAT SUNSHINE COMES IN THE AFTERNOON AND THE QUICKER WE CAN GET THAT SUNSHINE, THE HIGHER THE TEMPERATURES WILL BE AND THE BETTER CHANCE WE HAVE OF HITTING THAT 50 DEGREE MARK AND MORE AREAS AS WE GO. THROUGHOUT YOUR TUESDAY. FOR WEDNESDAY. TEMPERATURES A BIT COOLER, NOT BY MUCH. UPPER 40S STILL STILL ABOVE AVERAGE. BUT WE DO HAVE THAT SCATTERED RAIN SHOWER CHANCE RETURNING TO THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY AS WE GO INTO WEDNESDAY. SO LET’S TIME OUT THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS FOR YOU TODAY. IT’S CLOUDY. HIGH PRESSURE IS IN CONTROL, SO WE STAY DRY. WE JUST KEEP THE CLOUDS AROUND. TOMORROW WE WILL HAVE CLOUDS IN THE MORNING. BUT THEN SUNSHINE TO END THE DAY. THAT SHOULD HELP US WARM THINGS UP TO NEAR 50 DEGREES AS WE GO INTO YOUR WEDNESDAY. A SYSTEM WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST HERE. COULD BRING US A FEW SPRINKLES RIGHT ALONG I-80 AND SHOWERS THERE IN THE MORNING HOURS, BUT I THINK FOR THE LOWER SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY, YOUR BEST CHANCE IS ACTUALLY IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS AS WE GO INTO YOUR WEDNESDAY HERE. SO KEEP THAT IN MIND FOR THE EVENING COMMUTE. ON WEDNESDAY, YOU MAY ENCOUNTER SOME SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS THERE AS WE GO INTO THURSDAY WE’RE DRY, BUT THEN OUR NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN COMES INTO FRIDAY. DOES LOOK LIKE FRIDAY COULD BE QUITE A SOGGY DAY ACROSS THE AREA. AND THEN AGAIN, AS WE GO INTO THE WEEKEND FOR YOUR SUNDAY. SO IF YOU’RE TRYING TO MAKE WEEKEND PLANS, LOOKS LIKE SATURDAY MAY ACTUALLY BE YOUR BEST BET HERE BECAUSE SUNDAY WE HAVE ANOTHER SYSTEM COMING OUR WAY. BUT BEFORE THAT HAPPENS, YOU CAN SEE A NICE STRETCH OF TEMPERATURES AT O
