\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tACTIVE THREAT AND THAT THE SHOOTING WAS ISOLATED TO UNITY PARK. NOW, THE WGAL NEWS EIGHT STORM TEAM FORECAST WITH METEOROLOGIST BRIAN ARGENTE THANKS TO MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS RIGHT NOW. RIGHT NOW, OVER THE RED ROSE CITY. YOU SEE THOUGH WE WON\u2019T WE DID SEE EARLIER IN THE NEWSCAST. DID SEE SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS OVER YORK. AND WE\u2019LL EVENTUALLY SEE THAT AS WE HEAD INTO THE REST OF THIS EVENING FOR THE REST OF THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY. BUT WE\u2019RE SITTING RIGHT AROUND 57 DEGREES. WE HAVE A LIGHTER NORTH NORTHEASTERLY BREEZE RIGHT AROUND SIX MILES PER HOUR AS WE HEAD INTO THE EVENING. BUT LIKE I MENTIONED, WE\u2019LL START TO SEE THOSE SKIES BEGIN TO CLEAR. IT WILL CLEAR OVERNIGHT. WE\u2019LL SEE CLEAR CONDITIONS FOR THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD AND THEN BRIGHT SUNSHINE AS WE HEAD INTO OUR MONDAY, THE SUNSHINE RETURNS. AND THEN ALONG WITH THOSE SHOWERS, AS WE HEAD INTO OUR TUESDAY, THAT\u2019S WHEN WE\u2019LL START TO SEE THOSE RAIN CHANCES RETURN ACROSS THE AREA. NOW, ALMANAC FOR THE DAY TODAY. DIDN\u2019T GET ANY DATA FOR THIS AFTERNOON YET, BUT WE HAVE TEMPERATURES GETTING INTO THE 50S JUST EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON AND FOR THE FORECAST FOR THE REST OF THIS EVENING, WE\u2019LL START TO SEE SOME DECREASING CLOUDS. COOL AND CALM TEMPERATURES DOWN INTO THE LOWER 50S. WE\u2019LL HAVE A SOUTHEASTERLY FIVE MILE PER HOUR BREEZE. THEN FOR TONIGHT, DROPPING DOWN TO THE LOWER 40S. 40 TO 44 DEGREES WILL BE MOSTLY CLEAR AND COOL. WE\u2019LL HAVE A CALM WIND OR A LIGHT AND VARIABLE WIND, I SHOULD SAY, DURING THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD. AND THEN FOR TOMORROW, MOSTLY SUNNY WILL BE MILDER AND SEASONABLE, 66 TO 70 DEGREES. WE\u2019LL HAVE AN EAST NORTH NORTH EAST NORTHEASTERLY BREEZE AROUND 5 TO 10MPH FOR YOU. AND THEN IN TERMS OF THE WEATHER AND HEALTH FOR THE DAY TOMORROW, TREES AND GRASSES, THE POLLEN LEVELS WILL BE REMAINING HIGH. LOW MOLD LEVELS THOUGH I\u2019LL SAY AIR QUALITY, THOUGH, IS GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT MODERATE FOR THE PARTICULATE AND OZONE. AND THEN A MODERATE UV INDEX OF ABOUT A 30 MINUTE BURN TIME WITH THE MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES FOR TOMORROW. NOW PAST 24 HOURS IN TERMS OF RAINFALL REPORTS, VERY BENEFICIAL. RAIN HAS FELL ACROSS THE AREA. AND THAT\u2019S THAT\u2019S GREAT NEWS BECAUSE THIS PAST THURSDAY WE HAD THE LATEST UPDATE FROM THE FROM THE DROUGHT MONITOR. WE CAN SEE THE ESPECIALLY SOME PARTS OF THE AREA ARE EXPERIENCING MODERATE TO. ALSO SEVERE DROUGHT CONDITIONS CLOSER TO LANCASTER COUNTY, ALSO TOWARDS THE SOUTHEASTERN MOST TIP OF YORK COUNTY. ALSO PORTIONS CLOSER TO SOUTH MOUNTAIN AND FRANKLIN COUNTY AS EXPERIENCING VERY DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS THE AREA. SO. BUT WE NEED THAT RAIN AND WE ARE LOOKING AT MORE SHOWERS HEADING INTO OUR TUESDAY AND ESPECIALLY WEDNESDAY, WHERE WE\u2019LL SEE A BETTER RAIN CHANCE IN TERMS OF LATER IN THE DAY FOR WEDNESDAY. NOW, TEMPERATURES INTO THE MID 50S FOR HARRISBURG AND CARLISLE, 57 IN LEWISTOWN AND GETTYSBURG, ALONG WITH WITH WITH LANCASTER AT THIS TIME. NOW STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK. I JUST WANTED TO SHOW YOU SOME OF THE CLOUDS THAT ARE JUST MOVING THROUGH. YOU CAN SEE ON THE SATELLITE IMAGERY, YOU CAN SEE THERE\u2019S SOME CLEARING SKIES JUST TO OUR NORTH THAT WILL EVENTUALLY START TO INFILTRATE ITS WAY INTO THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY. YOU CAN SEE MAINLY CLEAR CONDITIONS BEGIN TO DEVELOP AS WE\u2019LL GET SOME NORTHERLY FLOW THANKS TO HIGH PRESSURE. THAT\u2019S JUST TO OUR NORTH. NOW THAT\u2019S GOING TO BE SETTING US UP WITH A MOSTLY SUNNY SKY FOR OUR MONDAY. ALSO A MOSTLY, MOSTLY CLEAR NIGHT FOR OUR MONDAY NIGHT. INTO TUESDAY. YOU CAN SEE AS WE HEAD INTO TUESDAY MORNING, ANOTHER SYSTEM THAT\u2019S GOING TO PUSH THROUGH THAT\u2019S GOING TO ALLOW FOR THAT NEXT SHOWER CHANCE, ALTHOUGH IT\u2019S A VERY IT\u2019S A VERY WEAK BOUNDARY THAT\u2019S GOING TO BE PASSING BY. I DO EXPECT TO SEE A VERY SLIGHT CHANCE OF SOME SHOWERS AS WE HEAD INTO OUR TUESDAY. THE BETTER CHANCE COMES ON OUR WEDNESDAY, WHERE WE\u2019LL SEE SHOWERS BEGIN TO COME IN LATE IN THE DAY. NOW IN TERMS OF 8 TO 14 DAY TEMPERATURE OUTLOOK, MAY 4TH THROUGH THE 10TH IS WHAT THIS IS. WHEN THIS IS VALID FOR, IT WILL BE SEEING SOME SOME BELOW AVERAGE TEMPERATURES. AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE TEN DAY FORECAST. AND YOU CAN SEE SHOWER CHANCES FOR TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY AND ALSO EARLY THURSDAY. BREEZY AND MILDER HEADING INTO OUR FRIDAY. A CHANCE OF SOME SHOWERS FOR YOUR SATURDAY, BUT IF YOU LOOK CLOSER TOWARDS THE END OF THE TEN DAY FORECAST, I DO SEE SOME MILDER TRENDS. WE COULD BE SEEING SOME UPPER 60\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
