NOW, THE WGAL NEWS EIGHT STORM TEAM FORECAST WITH METEOROLOGIST RYAN ARGENTI. WEATHER HEADLINES FOR THIS WEEK BELOW AVERAGE CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE BEGINNING OF THE WORK WEEK. REALLY THROUGH, I WOULD SAY THE MAJORITY OF THE WORK WEEK. WE ALSO HAVE OUR NEXT BEST CHANCE OF SHOWERS AS WE HEAD INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. WEDNESDAY. ALSO A CHANCE FOR THURSDAY, BUT LOOKS LIKE THE BEST CHANCE FOR THE NEXT BEST CHANCE IS GOING TO BE WEDNESDAY. THEN A BIT OF A WARMING TREND AS WE HEAD INTO NEXT WEEKEND, WE\u2019RE GOING TO BE SEEING TEMPERATURES GET TO THE 70S AND NOT ONLY THE 70S GETTING POTENTIALLY TO THE 80S, WHICH YOU\u2019LL SEE AT THE END OF THE TEN DAY FORECAST HERE IN JUST A FEW MINUTES. SO WE HIT A HIGH OF 68 DEGREES TODAY. 72 IS WHAT WE EXPECT FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. ONLY HAD 1\/100 OF AN INCH OF RAIN RECORDED AT HARRISBURG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. BUT IN TERMS OF THE WEATHER PLANNER FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT, I DO EXPECT TO SEE MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS. THERE\u2019S BEEN SOME CLEARING SO FAR THAT I\u2019VE BEEN SEEING ON THE SKY CAMS, BUT THERE I HAVE BEEN SEEING SOME RECENT DATA THAT I THINK WE\u2019RE GOING TO BE SEEING SOME MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS DURING THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD, AND ALSO HEADING INTO TOMORROW MORNING, WHERE WE\u2019LL HAVE TEMPERATURES RIGHT AROUND 52 DEGREES. WE\u2019LL HAVE LIGHT WINDS. IT WILL BE MOSTLY CLOUDY FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON. IT WILL BE COOL AND A LITTLE BIT BREEZY. WE\u2019LL HAVE TEMPERATURES TOP OUT AROUND 64 DEGREES. BUT FOR TOMORROW, NATIONAL BIKE TO WORK WEEK. LOOK AT THIS 8:00 IN THE MORNING, 51 DEGREES, MOSTLY CLOUDY. SO I WOULD SAY IT\u2019S A LITTLE BIT COOL. SO IT\u2019S GOOD CONDITIONS FOR 8:00, GOOD FOR 12:00 IN THE AFTERNOON, MOSTLY CLOUDY, 5:00 IN THE AFTERNOON FOR FOR TOMORROW. NOW POLLEN LEVELS FOR THE FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON. THEY\u2019LL BE REMAINING HIGH FOR THE TREES AND GRASS. MOLD LEVELS ARE LOW, AIR QUALITY IS GOOD AND THE UV INDEX IS LOW. WE GOT ABOUT A 50 MINUTE BURN TIME FOR THE AFTERNOON. AND HERE\u2019S OUR RAIN CHANCES ONCE AGAIN. WEDNESDAY LOOKS LIKE OUR NEXT BEST CHANCE OF SHOWERS. AND THEY LOOK LIKE THEY\u2019RE GOING TO BE COMING IN CLOSER TO THE MIDDLE OF THE AFTERNOON. AND THEN ANOTHER CHANCE OF SOME SHOWERS FOR YOUR THURSDAY. NOW TEMPERATURES ARE INTO THE 60S. WE\u2019RE 63 IN LEBANON, 60 IN LANCASTER, 63 IN GETTYSBURG AT THIS HOUR. AND WE JUST HAD A FEW SHOWERS EARLIER THIS EVENING. THEY HAVE NOW SINCE MOVED OUT OF THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY AND CONTINUING TO PUSH OUT TO SEA. NOW YOU SEE A LITTLE BIT OF SOME CLEARING HERE, A LITTLE BIT OF CLEARING IN THE CLOUDS. BUT NOTICE TOWARDS THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY, THESE CLOUDS ARE GOING TO START TO MAKE THEIR WAY INTO THE AREA. AND I DO EXPECT TO SEE SOME MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS TO DEVELOP. AS YOU CAN SEE, PREDICTOR KIND OF HIGHLIGHTING THAT CLOUD COVER FOR US EARLY TOMORROW MORNING. BUT HEADING INTO THE AFTERNOON, WE WILL START TO HAVE THE INFLUENCE OF HIGH PRESSURE BEGIN TO WORK ITS WAY IN. AND THAT\u2019S GOING TO HELP BREAK UP SOME OF THE CLOUDS A LITTLE BIT LATER IN THE EVENING. BUT WE\u2019LL STILL SEE SOME PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS FOR OUR MONDAY. HERE COMES OUR TUESDAY. BIG RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE COMING IN THE BIG BLUE H. AS WE LIKE TO SAY, THAT\u2019S GOING TO BE BUILDING INTO THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY AND ALLOWING MAINLY CLEAR CONDITIONS OR MOSTLY SUNNY CONDITIONS FOR OUR DAY ON TUESDAY. BUT THEN HERE COMES TUESDAY EVENING. HERE COMES OUR NEXT SYSTEM. THIS IS WHAT\u2019S GOING TO BE BRINGING OUR NEXT CHANCE OF SHOWERS FOR OUR WEDNESDAY. YOU CAN SEE CLOUDS WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE AS WE HEAD INTO. AS WE HEAD INTO OUR. OUR WEDNESDAY NOW 8 TO 14 DAY TEMPERATURE OUTLOOK. THIS IS VALID FOR MAY 18TH THROUGH THE 24TH. LOOK AT THIS. GETTING TO ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITIONS FOR THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY AND ALSO PRECIPITATION. LOOKING SLIGHTLY, I WOULD SAY SLIGHTLY ABOVE AVERAGE, BUT CLOSE TO NORMAL IN TERMS OF THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY. SO WE\u2019LL BE CONTINUING TO MONITOR THAT OVER THE NEXT 8 TO 14 DAYS. BUT YOU CAN SEE THERE\u2019S GOING TO BE RAIN CHANCES THESE THESE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS AS WE HEAD INTO ESPECIALLY OUR WEDNESDAY. SO COOL WITH A LIGHT BREEZE FOR YOUR MONDAY. TUESDAY IS MOSTLY SUNNY AND COOL. THOSE AFTERNOON SHOWERS MOVE IN ON WEDNESDAY, BUT NOTICE THE TEMPERATURE TREND AS WE APPROACH NEXT WEEKEND. GETTING INTO THE MID 70S FOR YOUR SATURDAY. 80 DEGRE\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Cooler temps and more sunshine this week; warm next weekend across south-central Pennsylvania<\/p>\n<p>Showers are ending across the Valley, but clouds will stick around into tonight.
