GOOD DAY TO GO TO THE FARM SHOW BECAUSE WE ARE SEEING RAIN ACROSS PARTS OF THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY FROM CARLISLE TO EPHRATA TO GETTYSBURG, AS WELL AS HERSHEY. EVERYONE AT THIS POINT STARTING TO SEE A LITTLE BIT OF THAT RAIN. IF IT HASN’T STARTED FOR YOU YET, IT WILL LATER ON. HERE’S A LOOK AT STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK. WE ARE SEEING THAT RAIN NOW. EXPAND TO NORTHWEST HERE. SO PARTS OF PERRY COUNTY WHERE IT HAS BEEN DRY MOST OF THE MORNING. WE’RE STARTING TO SEE SOME OF THAT LIGHT RAIN MOVE IN. BUT LANCASTER, YORK CITY AND POINTS TO THE SOUTHEAST. IT’S GOING TO TAKE A LITTLE LONGER FOR YOU TO GET A LITTLE BIT OF THAT RAIN. BUT WE DO HAVE RAIN IN PARTS OF LEBANON COUNTY, LEBANON.

WE CONTINUE TO SEE THE SHOWERS AS WE GO THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE COLD FRONT IN BLUE THERE WILL START TO MOVE THROUGH AFTER SUNSET. THAT’S WHEN WE’RE GOING TO SEE MOST OF THAT WIDESPREAD RAIN PUSH ACROSS THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY AND INTO EVERYWHERE, SO EVERYONE WILL GET RAIN BY MIDNIGHT. IT’S JUST A MATTER OF LOCATION.

IT’S GOING TO FEEL MORE LIKE JANUARY TOMORROW HERE. AND AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW NIGHT AND FRIDAY MORNING, IT’S REALLY GOING TO FEEL LIKE JANUARY WITH THOSE WIND CHILLS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS BY FRIDAY MORNING HERE. BUT IT DOES LOOK DRY FOR TOMORROW AND FRIDAY AS WELL. SO THE FORECAST FOR THE REST OF THE DAY, WE STILL HAVE THOSE SHOWERS ON AND OFF WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 40S. ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN BECAUSE ONCE THOSE TEMPERATURES DROP BELOW FREEZING, THEY WILL STAY THERE. AND WE’RE GOING TO BE DOING THAT TONIGHT WITH THE UPPER 20S RAIN ENDING AS WE HEAD TOWARDS THE MIDNIGHT HOUR. SOME OF THOSE SNOWFLAKES MAY MIX IN AT TIMES, BUT I’M NOT EXPECTING ANY ACCUMULATION WITH THIS AT ALL. IT’S GOING TO BE VERY LIGHT AND VERY BRIEF. TOMORROW. MOSTLY CLOUDY. THOSE HIGHS ACTUALLY OCCUR IN THE MORNING. THEY WILL DROP A LITTLE BIT AS WE GO THROUGHOUT THE DAY TOMORROW, AND THE WINDS GUSTS UP TO 35MPH MAKE IT FEEL MORE LIKE THE TEENS THROUGHOUT YOUR THURSDAY HERE. IN FACT, WHEN WE LOOK AT THE WINDS, YOU CAN SEE HOW THEY REMAIN ELEVATED ALL DAY. THERE’S REALLY NO CHANCE OR POINT WHERE THEY DROP THROUGHOUT YOUR THURSDAY HERE. SO IT WILL BE BREEZY ALL DAY. AND AGAIN, THAT HAS AN EFFECT WITH THE TEMPERATURE MAKING IT FEEL LIKE THE TEENS IN THE MORNING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. IN FACT, BY THE EVENING, FEELING LIKE THE SINGLE DIGITS THERE. AND THAT CONTINUES AS WE GO INTO YOUR FRIDAY HERE, THE WIND CHILL FORECAST FOR FRIDAY WILL BE IN THE TEENS AND 20S DURING THE AFTERNOON, BUT FRIDAY MORNING YOU’RE LOOKING AT THOSE SINGLE DIGITS. IT GETS A LITTLE BIT BETTER THOUGH ON SATURDAY. SO HERE’S A LOOK AT THE TEN DAY FORECAST. ONE MORE DAY ABOVE AVERAGE TODAY. THEN WE DROP DOWN TO 28 TOMORROW. AGAIN THAT HIGH IN THE MORNING WE’LL GO TO 32 ON FRIDAY 38 WITH A FEW SNOW SHOWERS. SATURDAY A BIT COLDER SUNDAY WITH A HIGH OF 30 AND THEN 28 BY MARTIN
