Impact: Showers & Storms Wednesday Evening

追加: 2026-05-15

[00:00:00]FAMILY THAT LIVED, WHO LAID THE GROUNDWORK FOR WHAT IT IS TODAY.

[00:00:05]NOW, THE IMPACT A FORECAST FROM THE WGAL NEWS EIGHT STORM TEAM.

[00:00:10]SCATTERED SHOWERS AND SOME EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY AS WE GO THROUGH THIS EVENING.

[00:00:15]THE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY FOR THESE STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS IS NOW UNTIL ROUGHLY ABOUT 11 P.M.

[00:00:22]SO LOW CHANCE WE COULD GET AN ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORM OR SOME DECENT DOWNPOURS.

[00:00:26]THAT’S WHY IT’S AN IMPACT DAY THANKS TO A PASSING COLD FRONT.

[00:00:30]AFTER THESE SHOWERS MOVE ON OUT, IT IS GOING TO BE CHILLIER FOR YOUR THURSDAY.

[00:00:34]ALSO BREEZY WITH HIGHS NEAR 60 DEGREES, BUT WE’LL SEE TEMPERATURES REBOUND TO 70 AS WE HEAD ON INTO FRIDAY.

[00:00:40]TAKING A LIVE LOOK AT LIVE LOCAL EIGHT, THE STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK, YOU CAN SEE THAT LINE OF STORMS HAS FORMED FROM BEDFORD TO STATE COLLEGE.

[00:00:48]AND WE ARE STARTING TO SEE SOME OF THESE LEADING EDGE OF THESE PASSING SHOWERS AND STORMS MOVE INTO OUR NORTHWESTERN COMMUNITIES.

[00:00:55]A STRONG THUNDERSTORM RIGHT NOW CENTERED IN WESTERN PORTIONS OF JUNIATA COUNTY, PERHAPS PRODUCING SOME PEA SIZED HAIL.

[00:01:00]YOU CAN SEE A LITTLE BIT OF THAT CONCENTRATION OF THAT LIGHTNING JUST TO THE WEST OF PORT ROYAL.

[00:01:06]AND AS WE WERE TRACKING HERE ON WHAT WE’RE LOOKING AT, THE HEIGHT OF THE STORMS.

[00:01:10]NOTICE THAT LITTLE SPLOTCH OF PURPLE STORM WAS UP TO ABOUT 30 TO 40,000FT IN HEIGHT.

[00:01:14]IT HAS SINCE COME BACK DOWN, BUT PACKING A LITTLE BIT OF PUNCH RIGHT NOW AS IT’S MOVING ITS WAY TO THE WEST SO YOU CAN SEE THIS LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAS FORMED.

[00:01:23]IT’S GOING TO BE CROSSING OVER THE VALLEY AS WE GO THROUGH THE NEXT FEW HOURS.

[00:01:28]SO THE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY LOOKS TO BE NOW AGAIN UNTIL ABOUT 11:00.

[00:01:32]JUST A LOW CHANCE WE COULD SEE SOME DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.

[00:01:36]SOME HEAVY RAINFALL, SOME LIGHTNING.

[00:01:37]BEST CHANCE FOR THOSE ISOLATED STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE FROM YORK TO HARRISBURG AND POINTS OFF TO THE WEST.

[00:01:43]LOWER THREAT TO THE EAST.

[00:01:45]SO TEMPERATURES WILL HOLD IN THE 60S AS THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CROSS THE HEART OF THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY.

[00:01:50]I DO EXPECT IT WILL BE OUT OF HERE SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT FOR OUR EASTERN COMMUNITIES.

[00:01:54]TEMPERATURES WILL FALL TO THE UPPER 40S AND THEN THEY WILL STAY COOL THROUGHOUT THE DAY.

[00:01:59]TOMORROW, WE’RE ONLY NEAR 60 DEGREES FOR OUR HIGHS.

[00:02:02]MAY SEE SOME SPOTTY SHOWERS AT TIMES, AND IT IS GOING TO BE A BREEZY DAY WITH WIND GUSTS AT TIMES UP NEAR JUST ABOVE 20MPH.

[00:02:10]THE BEST CHANCE FOR THE HIGHEST WIND GUSTS WILL BE DURING THE EARLY AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS.

[00:02:15]POLLEN COUNT REMAINS HIGH.

[00:02:16]THE MOLD COUNT WILL BE AT A MODERATE LEVEL.

[00:02:18]AIR QUALITY, THOUGH, WILL BE AT A GOOD LEVEL BECAUSE OF THE COOLER TEMPERATURES AND BLUSTERY CONDITIONS EXPECTED FOR YOUR.

[00:02:24]THURSDAY MADE IT TO 68 OUT AT HIA START THE DAY OFF AT 54, JUST 1/100 OF RAIN SO FAR, SOME AREAS HAVE SEEN SOME PASSING SHOWERS LIKE COLUMBIA AND LANCASTER COUNTY AND HALIFAX AND DAUPHIN COUNTY, WHERE RAINFALL REPORTS HAVE EXCEEDED A LITTLE OVER A 10TH OF AN INCH.

[00:02:39]BUT WE ARE GETTING SOME BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS NOW.

[00:02:42]SOME PEEKS OF SUNSHINE OUT AHEAD OF THAT INCOMING LINE.

[00:02:45]AND YOU CAN SEE WE JUST SAW IN CARLISLE, WE’RE UP TO 69 DEGREES, BUT WHERE IT’S BEEN FAIRLY CLOUDY THROUGHOUT THE EARLY EVENING HOURS, JUST 62 RIGHT NOW IN LANCASTER.

[00:02:53]BUT YOU CAN SEE THAT COLD POCKET OF AIR BACK DOWN TO 48 IN DETROIT.

[00:02:57]BUT THEN THERE’S THAT WEDGE OF WARMER AIR TEMPERATURES IN THE 80S AND 90S BACK IN THE DAKOTAS.

[00:03:02]SO YOU CAN SEE THE SWIRL IN THE CLOUDS AND THE SHOWERS OVER THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES REGION.

[00:03:06]THAT’S THE SYSTEM THAT’S GOING TO DRIVE THIS COLD FRONT THROUGH.

[00:03:09]HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ON.

[00:03:10]IT WILL BE A COOLER DAY TOMORROW.

[00:03:12]BUT THAT WARMTH THAT’S BUILDING OVER THE UPPER PLAINS, THAT WILL GET HERE ON INTO THE WEEKEND.

[00:03:17]SO NOTICE HERE ON THE PREDICTOR 8:00, THAT’S THE BEST TIME FRAME FOR OUR LARGER CITIES TO SEE THESE PASSING SHOWERS AND STORMS.

[00:03:24]SO AROUND SUNSET SHOULD BE TO THE EAST THOUGH BY THE TIME WE MAKE IT TO MIDNIGHT, THEN IT’S JUST GOING TO BE UNSETTLED.

[00:03:31]PERHAPS SOME DRIZZLE, SOME MIST, AND SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS FOR YOUR THURSDAY WITH FAIRLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS AND BLUSTERY CONDITIONS AS WELL.

[00:03:38]TEMPERATURES WILL REBOUND, THOUGH, ONCE WE HEAD INTO FRIDAY.

[00:03:40]A LITTLE BIT MORE SUNSHINE.

[00:03:41]WE’RE BACK UP TO NEAR 70 DEGREES.

[00:03:43]NOTICE THE WEEKEND?

[00:03:44]MOST OF THE WEEKEND LOOKS LIKE IT IS GOING TO BE DRY, WITH TEMPERATURES TOPPING OFF IN THE 80S.

[00:03:50]IT’S SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY.

[00:03:52]COULD SEE SOME SPOTTY SHOWERS.

[00:03:53]BETTER CHANCES FOR SOME.

[00:03:53]SHOWERS.

[00:03:54]RETURN MID NEXT WEEK, BUT BEFORE THAT WE COULD S
