Added: 2026-05-28

[00:00:04]NOW THE WGAL NEWS EIGHT STORM TEAM FORECAST WITH CHIEF METEOROLOGIST CHRISTINE FERREIRA.

[00:00:12]GOOD MORNING.

[00:00:12]I WANT TO SHOW YOU OUR STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK.

[00:00:15]WE ARE IN A LITTLE BIT OF A LULL IN THE ACTION RIGHT NOW.

[00:00:18]MOST OF THE HEAVIER RAIN HAS MOVED OFF TO THE EAST, BUT WE’RE NOT DONE WITH THE RAIN JUST YET.

[00:00:22]TAKE A LOOK AT THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF YOUR SCREEN.

[00:00:24]YOU SEE THAT BATCH OF RAIN MOVING TOWARD FRANKLIN COUNTY.

[00:00:27]THAT’S GOING TO COME IN BETWEEN 7 AND 11 FOR MOST OF US, AND WE WILL SEE ANOTHER ROUND OF RAIN.

[00:00:31]YOU COULD HEAR SOME RUMBLES OF THUNDER.

[00:00:33]YOU COULD GET SOME BRIEF MODERATE RAIN IN THAT.

[00:00:34]SO WE’LL KEEP A WATCHFUL EYE ON THAT FOR YOU THIS MORNING.

[00:00:36]THIS AFTERNOON, ANY ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS, I THINK THEY’RE GOING TO BE TO OUR SOUTH.

[00:00:42]THERE’S JUST A VERY SLIM CHANCE THUNDERSTORM WITH SOME GUSTY WINDS THROUGH FRANKLIN ADAMS COUNTIES.

[00:00:46]BUT OTHER THAN THAT, MOST OF THE ACTION IS GOING TO BE INTO MARYLAND, VIRGINIA, TOWARD D.C.

[00:00:51]LATER ON TODAY.

[00:00:52]SO THE PREDICTOR SHOWS US THAT LULL THIS MORNING.

[00:00:54]BUT WATCH THIS.

[00:00:55]AFTER 8:00, WE GET ANOTHER BATCH OF RAIN IN HERE, AND IT COULD BE MODERATE AT TIMES.

[00:01:00]WE COULD HAVE SOME POPS OF HEAVIER RAIN.

[00:01:02]WE COULD HEAR A RUMBLE OF THUNDER.

[00:01:03]BUT BY THE TIME WE GET TO ABOUT LUNCHTIME, MOST OF THAT RAIN IS TAPERING AND IT’S OUT OF HERE.

[00:01:07]HERE WE ARE AT 3:00 THIS AFTERNOON.

[00:01:08]ANY OF THE STRONGER STORMS ARE TO OUR SOUTH.

[00:01:11]WE COULD SEE SOME BREAKS IN THE ACTION IN THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY, AND I DO SEE A MAINLY DRY AFTERNOON AND A MAINLY DRY EVENING HERE, WITH A COLD FRONT KNOCKING ON OUR DOORSTEP TONIGHT.

[00:01:20]SO AFTER DARK THERE COULD BE A FEW ADDITIONAL SHOWERS WITH THAT COLD FRONT DROPPING IN.

[00:01:26]THAT’S THE LEADING EDGE OF THE COOLER, DRIER AIR COMING IN FOR TOMORROW.

[00:01:30]SO FOR THE MORNING, WATCH OUT FOR SOME RAIN AT TIMES.

[00:01:33]COULD BE LOCALLY HEAVY OR BRIEFLY MODERATE AT TIMES SLOWING YOU DOWN A BIT ON YOUR MORNING COMMUTE AND MAINLY BY LATE MORNING.

[00:01:39]THIS RAIN SHOULD BE TAPERING FOR THE AFTERNOON.

[00:01:41]JUST AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM.

[00:01:43]SAME FOR THE EVENING.

[00:01:44]I THINK WE’RE LARGELY DRY.

[00:01:45]SECOND HALF OF THE DAY.

[00:01:46]THE BIG STORY IS GOING TO BE THAT HIGH HUMIDITY.

[00:01:48]IT’S GOING TO FEEL SOUPY TODAY FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.

[00:01:50]FOR TONIGHT, WE GO WITH 62 TO 66.

[00:01:53]COLD FRONT BRINGS A FEW SHOWERS EARLY.

[00:01:56]THEN WE SEE GRADUAL CLEARING.

[00:01:58]WON’T BE AS HUMID TONIGHT.

[00:02:00]TOMORROW NOT AS HUMID EITHER AND COOLER 74 TO 78 DEGREES.

[00:02:03]THROWING A BREEZE FOR YOU OUT OF THE NORTHWEST AT 10 TO 20MPH.

[00:02:07]SO IT’S GOING TO FEEL GREAT TOMORROW WITH MORNING SUN, SOME MIDDAY CLOUDS, AND THEN CLEARING AGAIN TOWARD EVENING.

[00:02:14]RIGHT NOW FEELS LIKE SUMMER OUTSIDE AT 64 IN LEWISTOWN, A PAIR OF SIXES.

[00:02:18]IN CARLISLE, WE HAVE 67 DEGREES IN HARRISBURG AND LEBANON.

[00:02:21]AND YES, THAT COMES WITH HIGH HUMIDITY.

[00:02:23]LOOK AT THE DEW POINTS.

[00:02:24]THEY ARE IN THE MID 60S.

[00:02:25]I’D CALL THAT HUMID FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR FOR SURE.

[00:02:27]WEATHER IN HEALTH UPDATE.

[00:02:28]WE ARE BACK TO MODERATE LEVELS OF TREE AND GRASS POLLEN.

[00:02:31]TODAY.

[00:02:31]OUR AIR QUALITY IS ALSO MODERATE AND THE UV INDEX IT’S GOING TO BE LOW THIS AFTERNOON.

[00:02:35]BURN TIME OF 50 TO 55 MINUTES.

[00:02:38]SO HERE’S THE STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK.

[00:02:40]NOTICE THE SHOWERS THE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS.

[00:02:42]THEY’RE MARCHING WEST TO EAST ACROSS OUR AREA.

[00:02:44]ALL ALONG THIS STALLED BOUNDARY WE’VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT, WHICH STRETCHES FROM PENNSYLVANIA BACK TOWARD THE MIDWEST.

[00:02:51]BUT YOU SEE THIS CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS SOUTHEAST OF PITTSBURGH.

[00:02:54]IT’S WEAKENING A LITTLE BIT AS IT MOVES EAST, BUT THAT’S THE CLUSTER OF RAIN THAT I SEE COMING INTO OUR NECK OF THE WOODS LATER THIS MORNING.

[00:03:02]SO NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS RAIN SHOULD RETURN.

[00:03:04]I THINK IT’S LARGELY OUT OF HERE BY LUNCHTIME.

[00:03:07]LOOK AT THE PREDICTOR THIS AFTERNOON.

[00:03:08]SOME PEEKS OF SUNSHINE FOR YOU.

[00:03:09]DRIER WEATHER TOWARD EVENING.

[00:03:11]SO IF YOU HAVE ANY OUTDOOR PLANS SECOND HALF OF THE DAY, JUST BE MINDFUL.

[00:03:15]AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR STORM COULD BE AROUND, BUT IT SHOULD BE MOSTLY DRY.

[00:03:19]COLD FRONT DROPS IN TONIGHT WITH A FEW ADDITIONAL SHOWERS, THEN GRADUAL CLEARING TOMORROW MORNING.

[00:03:23]LOOK AT THIS.

[00:03:24]THE BIG BLUE H COMES IN TOMORROW AFTERNOON CLEARING OUT ANY CLOUD COVER SITTING RIGHT ON TOP OF US ON FRIDAY.

[00:03:29]AND BOY, THAT’S MY PICK OF THE WEEK FOR YOU.

[00:03:32]FRIDAY LOOKS FANTASTIC.

[00:03:33]TALKING ABOUT SUNSHINE, LIGHT WINDS, LOW HUMIDITY LOCKED IN.

[00:03:36]IT’S GOING TO BE A BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND TOO.

[00:03:38]HERE’S THE PREDICTOR.

[00:03:39]ESTIMATED RAINFALL TOTALS FROM ANYTHING THAT YOU SEE THIS MORNING.

[00:03:42]A COUPLE OF ADDITIONAL TENTHS OF AN INCH.

[00:03:44]THERE COULD BE SOME ISOLATED HEAVIER RAIN THROUGH FRANKLIN OR ADAMS COUNTIES PRIMARILY.

[00:03:48]HERE’S A LOOK AT THE TEN DAY FORECAST TEMPERATURES.

[00:03:50]THEY’RE GOING TO BE IN THE 70S GOING FORWARD HERE UNTIL THE END OF NEXT WEEK.

[00:03:54]WE STAY IN THE 70S.

[00:03:56]NOW, THERE MAY BE A FEW SHOWERS ON MONDAY.

[00:03:57]THAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN, BUT OTHERWISE IT’S A PRETT
