I WANTED TO SHOW YOU THE PREDICTOR TODAY. IT’S DRY RIGHT NOW ACROSS THE BOARD. BUT WATCH AS SOON AS WE HEAD TOWARD LUNCHTIME. THAT STEADY, LIGHT RAIN WILL BE DEVELOPING ACROSS THE AREA. MIGHT TAKE A WHILE TO REACH AREAS EAST OF THE RIVER, BUT I THINK BY AFTERNOON EVERYBODY SHOULD BE SEEING SOME LIGHT RAIN. THAT WET WEATHER CONTINUES THIS EVENING FOR THE EVENING RUSH. IT WILL BE A WET DRIVE AND THEN NOTICE THE RAIN QUICKLY LIFTS OFF TO THE NORTHEAST, TAPERS TO SHOWERS BY LATE EVENING. TONIGHT THERE COULD BE A PASSING SHOWER. SAME DEAL FOR TOMORROW MORNING, BUT I THINK TOMORROW THE BIG STORY IS GOING TO BE THE WARMTH THAT COMES IN HERE. WE’RE GOING TO BE SOARING INTO THE 60S FOR OUR HIGHS AFTER HIGHS ONLY IN THE LOW 50S TODAY. SO HERE’S A LOOK AT THE PREDICTOR. ESTIMATED RAINFALL TOTALS FROM TODAY. MOST SPOTS PICKING UP A 10TH OR TWO OF AN INCH OF RAIN, MAYBE A QUARTER INCH TO A HALF INCH AT THE HIGHEST. NEWS EIGHT STORM TEAM FORECAST BREAKDOWN. WE START WITH CLOUDY SKIES THIS MORNING. LIGHT RAIN ROLLS IN THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS THE BOARD AND CONTINUES THIS EVENING, TAPERING TO SHOWERS LATE. EVEN WITH THE CLOUDS AND THE RAIN IT’S GOING TO BE MILD TEMPERATURES. THEY GET UP INTO THE 50S FOR TONIGHT. WE STAY NEAR 50 DEGREES. IT’S GOING TO BE VERY MILD TONIGHT. PASSING SHOWERS POSSIBLE. LIGHT WINDS OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST. AND TOMORROW HERE WE GO INTO THE 60S. YOUR ONLY DAY IN THE 60S IN THE TEN DAY FORECAST. CERTAINLY THE WARMEST ONE YOU’LL SEE FOR A WHILE AS WE COOL DOWN NEXT WEEK. HERE’S A LOOK AT THE TEMPERATURES 43 DEGREES IN LEWISTOWN. IT’S 42 IN HARRISBURG, 46 IN YORK AND 41 OUT THE DOOR IN LANCASTER. DOESN’T FEEL ALL THAT BAD, EVEN WITH JUST A 5 TO 10 MILE PER HOUR BREEZE. RIGHT NOW ON OUR STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK, A LITTLE BIT OF SHOWER ACTIVITY POPPING UP NEAR STATE COLLEGE. PERHAPS LEWISTOWN WON’T RULE OUT A LITTLE PATCHY LIGHT RAIN THIS MORNING, BUT THE MAIN EVENT, THE STEADIER, WIDESPREAD LIGHT RAIN THAT’S STILL BACK HERE OVER THE MIDWEST AND THAT ROLLS OUR WAY THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING ACROSS THE REST OF THE COUNTRY, QUIETING DOWN, ESPECIALLY THROUGH THE PLAINS, THROUGH TEXAS, BACK INTO THE ROCKIES AND THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. JUST A FEW SHOWERS FOR THOSE FOLKS. THERE ARE SOME WINTER STORM WARNINGS AND WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES FOR THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND UPPER MIDWEST. AHEAD OF THAT COLD SHOT OF AIR, THOUGH. SO FOR TODAY, FOR US, HIGH PRESSURE PULLS AWAY, RAIN ROLLS IN THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. IF YOU’RE TRAVELING ANYWHERE AROUND THE REGION THIS EVENING, BE PREPARED FOR WET ROADS FOR TONIGHT. WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH AND TOMORROW, JUST A COUPLE OF MORNING SHOWERS. IT’S GOING TO BE WARM. WE DO GET INTO THE 60S, BUT A STRONGER COLD FRONT ROLLS THROUGH TOMORROW EVENING. THAT BRINGS A FEW ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND IT TURNS WINDY LATE SO WE WILL SEE THE WIND HOWLING ON THANKSGIVING. I THINK 15 TO 25MPH. GUSTS TO ABOUT 35 ON FRIDAY. WE COULD HAVE GUSTS TO 40, PERHAPS 45MPH. SO MORE IMPACTFUL AND CERTAINLY COLDER. FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES EARLY FRIDAY. UPPER TEENS, LOW 20S IF YOU’RE OUT BLACK FRIDAY SHOPPING, THE FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURE DOESN’T IMPROVE MUCH IN THE AFTERNOON. IT STAYS IN THE 20S. HERE’S A LOOK AT OUR TEN DAY FORECAST. WE HAVE AN IMPACT DAY ON FRIDAY DUE TO THE WIND AND COLD. STILL BREEZY EARLY SATURDAY, BUT WINDS DIMINISH QUICKLY BY THE TIME WE HIT SUNDAY. WE’RE WARMING UP TO 44 WITH A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND A CHANGEABLE FORECAST NEXT WEEK. BUT I DO SEE COOLER AIR STICKING AROUND WIT
