TEAM FORECAST WITH METEOROLOGIST MARYELLEN PANN. AFTER LAST NIGHT’S COLD FRONT PUSHED THROUGH, WE ARE LEFT WITH FEELING MORE LIKE FEBRUARY NUMBERS AND WITH THE GUSTY WINDS, IT FEELS EVEN COLDER. WE’RE TALKING WINDCHILLS WE HAVE TO DRESS FOR IN THE TEENS THIS MORNING AND 20 THIS AFTERNOON. MILDER TEMPERATURES WILL RETURN THOUGH, AS WE HEAD CLOSER TO THE WEEKEND. WE DO HAVE A FEW SHOWER CHANCES OVER THE WEEKEND AS WELL, BUT IT’S NOT GOING TO BE A WASHOUT. AND THEN TEMPERATURES TAKE A LITTLE TUMBLE AGAIN EARLY NEXT WEEK. NOT AS COLD AS IT IS TODAY ARE EXPECTED TO BE TODAY AND TOMORROW, BUT WE WILL BE BELOW AVERAGE. IT LOOKS LIKE ONCE AGAIN YOUR NEWS EIGHT STORM TEAM FORECAST FOR TODAY. SOME SUNSHINE EARLY THIS MORNING. TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 20S BUT FEELING LIKE THE TEENS BECAUSE OF THE GUSTY WINDS. MOSTLY CLOUDY BY THIS AFTERNOON. COULD HAVE SOME FLURRIES OUT THERE BECAUSE OF SOME UPPER LEVEL ENERGY. HIGHS IN THE MID 30S. WE’RE IN THE MID 60S YESTERDAY. WE’RE IN THE MID 30S TODAY. HOWEVER IT IS STILL GOING TO BE BLUSTERY AND WE’RE DRESSING FOR TEMPERATURES IN THE 20S. FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES IN THE 20S. DECREASING CLOUDS THIS EVENING. WINDS ARE MUCH LIGHTER OVERNIGHT TONIGHT 5 TO 10MPH. THAT’S GOING TO ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO DROP INTO THE LOW 20S. SO A COLD NIGHT UNDER PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. TOMORROW MORNING WE START OFF WITH SOME SUNSHINE, THEN A MIX OF SUN AND CLOUDS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. IT’S GOING TO BE BRISK WINDS 5 TO 15. SO NOT NEAR AS STRONG AS TODAY. BUT WE’RE STILL DEALING WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 30S. STILL GOING TO FEEL LIKE FEBRUARY FOR SURE. TEMPERATURES RIGHT NOW 25 IN LEWISTOWN, 29 IN CHAMBERSBURG. WE HAVE LOW 30S IN LEBANON AND LANCASTER, 30 IN YORK AND CARLISLE. BUT THIS IS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE. IT FEELS LIKE THE TEENS IN LEBANON, LANCASTER, CHAMBERSBURG, 21. IT FEELS LIKE IN CARLISLE, IT FEELS LIKE 20 IN HARRISBURG, WE’VE GOT WINDS STILL QUITE IMPRESSIVE, NEAR 40MPH IN LANCASTER AND CHAMBERSBURG, A LITTLE OVER 30 MILE PER HOUR WIND GUSTS IN HARRISBURG AND LEBANON. AND AS WE GO THROUGH THE DAY, HERE’S A LOOK. HOUR BY HOUR, THOSE WINDS WILL STILL BE GUSTING CLOSE TO 3035 THROUGH LATE MORNING. AND THEN BY AFTERNOON THEY REALLY START TO COME DOWN, ESPECIALLY AS WE GET INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. HERE’S A LOOK AT STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK. WE STILL HAVE SOME FLURRIES, MAINLY NORTH AND WEST OF HARRISBURG. BUT WATCH THEM DIMINISH AS THEY CONTINUE FURTHER TO THE EAST. SO I DO EXPECT THEM TO WIND DOWN. WE DO HAVE TEMPERATURES BELOW FREEZING ROAD SURFACE TEMPERATURES ARE BELOW FREEZING. SO IF IT’S WET IT LOOKS WET. IT COULD BE A BIT ON THE SLIPPERY SIDE. SO JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND. IF YOU’RE HEADED OUT EARLY THIS MORNING. SOME STRONG UPPER LEVEL ENERGY COMES THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. THAT’S GOING TO BRING IN THE CLOUDS AND COULD PRODUCE SOME SNOW FLURRIES OR EVEN SOME LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS, MAINLY IN OUR WESTERN COUNTIES. YOU CAN SEE THAT HERE ON PREDICTOR. THE CLOUDS BUILDING IN AND SOME OF THAT SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY MAKING ITS WAY ACROSS THE AREA. DON’T EXPECT MUCH MORE THAN MAYBE A COATING ON GRASSY AREAS IN OUR WESTERN COMMUNITIES, AND JUST SOME FLURRIES ELSEWHERE. CLOUDS AROUND FOR TOMORROW WE’LL CALL IT A MIX OF SUN AND CLOUDS. HIGH PRESSURE JUST OFF THE COAST. IT IS A DRY DAY. IT’S STILL A CHILLY DAY IN THE 30S. AND THEN AS THAT HIGH IS OFF TO OUR EAST, WINDS WILL PICK UP A BIT. WE’LL START TO SEE THOSE TEMPERATURES MODERATING AND SLOWLY WARMING TO MORE SEASONABLE AVERAGES THROUGH THE WEEK. REST OF THE WEEK, THERE IS A SYSTEM THAT COMES THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY FRIDAY MORNING, SO COULD BRING US A FEW SHOWERS, BUT THAT’S MAINLY IN THE DAYTIME HOURS. YOUR TEN DAY FORECAST SHOWS WE’RE BACK INTO THE MID 40S BY THURSDAY, 50 FOR FRIDAY, AND THAT’S THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING. SO WE’RE ACTUALLY GOING TO HAVE TEMPERATURES MORE TYPICAL OF MARCH AND FOR SPRING. AND THEN OVER THE WEEKEND A COUPLE SYSTEMS MAY BRING US A FEW SH
