NOW THE WGAL NEWS EIGHT STORM TEAM FORECAST, WITH METEOROLOGIST RYAN ARGENTI ANOTHER COMFY DAY FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE WEEKEND, NEAR SEASONABLE AVERAGES. BUT IT\u2019S NOT GOING TO BE FEELING LIKE THAT AS WE HEAD INTO NEXT WEEK. IT\u2019S GOING TO FEEL MORE LIKE SUMMER FEELING LIKE JUNE. AS A MATTER OF FACT, WITH HIGHS GETTING INTO THE 80S FROM YOUR TUESDAY, GETTING INTO THURSDAY AND A BIT OF A DRY STRETCH, THOUGH, ONLY A FEW RAIN CHANCES FOR THE NEXT TEN DAYS, THAT IS WHAT WE\u2019RE GOING TO BE TRACKING. SO YOU CAN SEE ALMANAC FOR THE DAY TODAY, 66 DEGREES WAS THE HIGH 62 IS WHAT WE EXPECT FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR. AND IN TERMS OF THE REST OF THE FORECAST FOR THIS EVENING, WE\u2019LL BE SEEING MAINLY CLEAR CONDITIONS DEVELOP. WE\u2019LL SEE DIMINISHING WINDS OUT OF THE NORTH BETWEEN 5 AND 15MPH, STILL REMAINING MILD FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR, 56 TO 60 DEGREES. THEN FOR TONIGHT. CHECK THIS OUT FOR TONIGHT. CLEAR SKIES WILL BE CHILLY AND CALM, BUT WE DO HAVE A FROST ADVISORY FROM 2 A.M. TO 8 A.M. A LOOK AT THE TEMPERATURE RANGE HERE 32 TO 36 DEGREES. FOR SOME COMMUNITIES. OVERNIGHT WINDS ARE GOING TO BE LIGHT TO CALM IN NATURE. AND THEN FOR TOMORROW 62 TO 66 DEGREES. PARTLY SUNNY AND COMFY AND A LITTLE BIT BREEZY. OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST. WE\u2019LL HAVE A 10 TO 15 MILE PER HOUR BREEZE, WEATHER AND HEALTH FOR THE DAY TOMORROW. HIGH POLLEN LEVELS FROM THE TREES AND GRASSES, LOW MOBILE LEVELS, MODERATE AIR QUALITY AND A MODERATE UV INDEX. ABOUT A 30 MINUTE BURN TIME FOR THE AFTERNOON. YOU CAN SEE TEMPERATURES INTO THE 60S OR 66 IN LEBANON, 66 IN HARRISBURG, STILL RIGHT AROUND 70 DEGREES FOR GETTYSBURG AT THIS TIME. BUT NOTICE THE TEMPERATURES AS WE GET INTO THE REST OF THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT, ESPECIALLY INTO EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. TEMPERATURES ARE GETTING INTO THE MID TO LOWER 30S IN SOME SPOTS, 33 DEGREES IN LANCASTER, 35 DEGREES IN HARRISBURG, 36 IN LEBANON, 32 POTENTIALLY FOR LEWISTOWN. AND WHAT THAT\u2019S GOING TO BE DOING IS GOING TO ALLOW FOR THE CHANCE FOR FROST TO DEVELOP. A LOT OF FOLKS HAVE ALREADY BEEN PREPARING FOR THEIR FLOWERBEDS, THEIR LANDSCAPING. SO AND THAT THAT COULD STOP THE GROWTH OF SOME SENSITIVE PLANTS IF YOU LEAVE THEM OUTSIDE IN CONDITIONS THAT MAY DEVELOP FROST. AND SO WE DO HAVE A FROST ADVISORY UNTIL 8 A.M. TO BE FROM 2 A.M. TO 8 A.M. FOR YOUR SUNDAY FROM MIFFLIN, JUNIATA, PERRY, DAUPHIN, LEBANON AND LANCASTER COUNTIES. AND AGAIN, THAT\u2019S UNTIL 8:00 IN THE MORNING. AND SO WHAT YOU SHOULD DO IN TERMS OF THE PRECAUTIONS THAT YOU SHOULD TAKE, COVER ANY SENSITIVE PLANTS THAT YOU HAVE, CROPS, VEGETATION, IF YOU HAVE POTTED PLANTS AND YOU HAVEN\u2019T PLANTED THEM YET, I WOULD BRING THOSE PLANTS INSIDE IS WHAT I WOULD DO FOR TONIGHT. SO JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND AS WE GET INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. NOW WINDS ARE BEGINNING TO DIMINISH OUT OF THE NORTH, BUT WE WILL BEGIN TO GET BREEZY ONCE AGAIN ONCE WE GET TO SUNDAY AFTERNOON. GUSTS UP TO ABOUT 20 TO 25MPH FOR OR BY THE TIME WE GET TO SUNDAY EVENING. NOW. STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK. ALL IS QUIET. WE HAVE HIGH PRESSURE OVERHEAD AND THAT\u2019S WHAT\u2019S ALLOWED. THE MAINLY CLEAR CONDITIONS OUTSIDE. AS YOU\u2019VE SEEN, YOU\u2019VE PROBABLY ENJOYED THE SUNSHINE TODAY AND IT\u2019S GOING TO CONTINUE TO BE THAT WAY AS YOU GET INTO THE SECOND HALF OF THE WEEKEND. A WARM FRONT STARTS TO APPROACH THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY LATE SUNDAY INTO EARLY MONDAY. NOW, A PREDICTOR DOESN\u2019T HIGHLIGHT MUCH OF A SHOWER CHANCE, BUT THERE MAY BE A STRAY SHOWER CHANCE AS YOU SAW THAT WARM FRONT GO BY MAY ALLOW FOR A BRIEF SHOWER TO DEVELOP, BUT OVERALL LOOKING DRY AS WE HEAD INTO YOUR MONDAY. BUT THEN ONCE WE GET TO MONDAY AFTERNOON, THEN WE COULD BE SEEING THE CHANCE OF SOME SHOWERS BEGINNING TO DEVELOP. THE WARMER AIR FROM THE SOUTH REALLY STARTS TO KICK IN. LOOK AT THIS. THE TEN DAY FORECAST WARMER FOR YOUR MONDAY 76 DEGREES FEELS LIKE JUNE FOR YOUR. TUESDAY 82 DEGREES 86 WITH NEAR RECORD WARMTH. POTENTIALLY. THE RECORD IS 87 DEGREES FOR WEDNESDAY.
