HERE\u2019S OUR STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR     NETWORK. RIGHT NOW YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE A MIXED BAG OF PRECIPITATION. I THINK THIS IS MAINLY FREEZING RAIN. I\u2019M NOT GOING TO RULE OUT A LITTLE BIT OF SNOW OR SOME SLEET MIXING IN, BUT I THINK THIS IS PREDOMINANTLY FREEZING RAIN. WE\u2019VE BEEN SEEING THAT ON OUR SKY CAMS IN GETTYSBURG IN YORK, IN LANCASTER, LEBANON HAS RAINDROPS ON THE LENS. SO PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS BECAUSE LOOK AT THE TEMPERATURES. WE ARE IN THE 20S AND 30S AND THOSE NUMBERS ARE BELOW FREEZING. SO ANYTHING THAT FALLS WILL FREEZE ON CONTACT. THAT IS FREEZING RAIN. WIND SPEEDS THERE OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST AT ABOUT 5 TO 10MPH. JUST ADDING A LITTLE BIT OF A CHILL TO THE AIR, MAKING IT FEEL LIKE THE MID 20S. HERE\u2019S YOUR WEATHER PLANNER. TODAY WE HAVE THAT FREEZING RAIN SLICK ROADS THIS MORNING. I DO THINK AROUND TEN 11:00 MOST SPOTS WILL RISE ABOVE THE FREEZING MARK FOR THE AFTERNOON. WE GET TO 36 WITH RAIN SHOWERS, DAMP AND CHILLY. AND THEN THIS EVENING SOME STEADY RAIN MOVES IN FOR THE EVENING COMMUTE, SO IT\u2019S GOING TO BE A SOGGY ONE, BUT NOT A SLICK ONE LIKE IT WILL BE THIS MORNING.
