LAUNCHED PRIME AIR IN EIGHT U.S. CITIES. RYAN, WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THIS EARLIER WITH THE FORECAST, BUT YOUR OPINION ON THESE DRONES FOR LITTLE CAESARS WAS A LITTLE HOT EARLIER. IT’S IT’S IT’S A GREAT IDEA, BUT I DON’T NEED A DRONE KNOWING WHERE I, WHERE I LIVE, I DON’T KNOW, EVERYBODY BACK AT HOME, BUT LIKE TO HAVE A DRONE LIKE LAND THAT. YEAH, EXACTLY. YEAH. TO HAVE A DRONE LAND THE PIZZA IN FRONT OF YOU. THAT SOUNDS CONVENIENT, BUT THEN IT KNOWS WHERE I LIVE. I DON’T KNOW, I’M NOT. I’M NOT ABOUT THAT PERSONALLY, BUT LET US KNOW. SEND US AN EMAIL WHAT YOU GUYS THINK. BUT ANYWAY, LET’S GET INTO THE FORECAST HERE. GETTYSBURG. RIGHT NOW MAINLY CLEAR CONDITIONS. WE HAVE TEMPERATURES RIGHT INTO THE LOWER 50S, BUT WINDS HAVE CALMED A BIT OF A BREEZY DAY. EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON. BUT WHAT WE’RE GOING TO BE TRACKING THOUGH, AS WE HEAD INTO EARLY THIS WEEK, WARMING BACK TO ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITIONS, ESPECIALLY AS WE HEAD INTO OUR TUESDAY, WE’RE GOING TO BE WE’RE GOING TO BE RUNNING FOR THE 80S FOR THE AFTERNOON, MIDDLE OF THE WEEK, NEXT BEST CHANCE OF SOME SHOWERS AND THEN LATE WEEK COOLER TEMPERATURES DO RETURN. WE WILL RETURN BACK TO, I WOULD SAY, UNSEASONABLY COOL CONDITIONS ONCE AGAIN, BUT WE’LL REBOUND SOON ONCE WE GET INTO THE FOLLOWING WEEK. BUT TEMPERATURES HIT RIGHT AROUND 62 DEGREES AT HARRISBURG INTERNATIONAL. 70 DEGREES IS WHAT WE EXPECT FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR, SO WE’RE EIGHT DEGREES BELOW AVERAGE FOR THIS TIME IN MAY. AND 49 IS WHAT WE EXPECT FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR. IN TERMS OF OVERNIGHT LOWS, WE HIT A LOW OF 41 DEGREES EARLIER THIS MORNING. NO RAINFALL RECORDED AT HARRISBURG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. AND SPEAKING OF HARRISBURG, GUSTS UP TO 28MPH WITH SUSTAINED WINDS OF 80MPH. THAT WAS TODAY. BUT LOOK AT THIS BREEZIER. IN OTHER COMMUNITIES IN LANCASTER, YORK, LEBANON AND CARLISLE, A BREEZE BETWEEN 15 TO 20MPH, GUSTING UPWARDS OF 30 TO 35MPH. SO CERTAINLY A BIT OF A BREEZY DAY. BUT THOSE WINDS HAVE NOW CALMED. WE’LL SEE SOME LIGHTER WINDS FOR OVERNIGHT TONIGHT, WITH TEMPERATURES DROPPING DOWN TO THE 40S. 52 TO START FOR TOMORROW MORNING. MOSTLY SUNNY WITH A LIGHT BREEZE AND WE’LL SEE A FEW PASSING CLOUDS FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON, BUT CAN’T COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT. 72 DEGREES. WE’LL HAVE A GENTLE BREEZE OR THE BREEZE WILL PICK BACK UP. IT WILL BE A GENTLE BREEZE FOR THE AFTERNOON NOW. TREE POLLEN LEVELS REMAINING HIGH. THE GRASS POLLEN, THOUGH, IS MORE ON THE MODERATE SIDE, BUT OVERALL THOUGH, THE POLLEN LEVELS ARE GOING TO BE HIGH BUT THEN LOW MOLD LEVELS GOOD. MORE MODERATE AIR QUALITY I SHOULD SAY. AND THAT’S FOR THE OZONE. AND THEN WE HAVE ABOUT A 35 MINUTE BURN TIME. SO WE HAVE ABOUT A MODERATE UV INDEX FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND RAIN CHANCES. WE DO SEE SOME ISOLATED SHOWER CHANCES FOR TUESDAY. THE BETTER RAIN CHANCES, HOWEVER, COME IN ON OUR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. YOU’LL SEE THAT IN PREDICTOR HERE IN JUST A MINUTE. OR YOU’LL SEE THAT MORE SO ON THE TEN DAY FORECAST. BUT YOU CAN SEE TEMPERATURES INTO THE 50S FOR HARRISBURG, 52 IN CARLISLE, 54 IN GETTYSBURG. A LITTLE BIT OF A COLD SPOT IN YORK, 42 DEGREES AND 40 IN LEWISTOWN. BUT YOU CAN SEE THOSE WINDS REALLY HAVE CALMED JUST THOSE. A DIFFERENCE EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON, WHERE WE SAW WINDS UPWARDS OF 10 TO 15MPH IN MOST AREAS. SO STILL LOOKING AT SOME MAINLY CLEAR CONDITIONS THANKS TO HIGH PRESSURE THAT’S BUILT IN OVER THE OVER THE VALLEY. BUT AS HIGH PRESSURE, YOU CAN SEE THAT THAT HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTING OFFSHORE, THAT’S GOING TO ALLOW FOR A MILDER SOUTHERLY FLOW. AND THAT’S GOING TO PROMOTE TEMPERATURES OR HELP TEMPERATURES TO REACH THE 70S FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON IN THE EVENING. AND THEN STILL LOOKING AT MAINLY CLEAR CONDITIONS. NOW HERE COMES TUESDAY AS WE HEAD INTO TUESDAY MORNING. HERE COMES THE WARMER AIR COMING IN FROM THE SOUTH. BUT NOTICE THESE LITTLE, LITTLE ISOLATED SHOWERS STARTING TO COME IN ON PREDICTOR. THAT’S THAT’S GOING TO PERSIST THROUGH THE DAY. BUT THE BETTER RAIN CHANCES DON’T COME UNTIL WE GET INTO OUR WEDNESDAY. YOU SEE A COLD FRONT THAT’S GOING TO PUSH THROUGH THE AREA. AND YOU SEE ALL THESE SCATTERED SHOWERS. THEY’RE EVENTUALLY GOING TO MAKE THEIR WAY TO THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY BY THE TIME WE GET TO WEDNESDAY AND ALSO THURSDAY, BUT 8 TO 14 DAY TEMPERATURE OUTLOOK LOOKING A LITTLE BIT BELOW AVERAGE. AS YOU CAN SEE. THAT’S REFLECTED IN OUR TEN DAY FORECAST HERE. TEMPERATURES GETTING TO THE 80S TUESDAY 68 FOR OUR WEDNESDAY CHANCES FOR SOME SHOWERS WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. LOOKING AHEAD TO MOTHER’S DAY WEEKEND LOOKING MILD. WE’RE 66 DEGREES AND P
