WARMTH CONTINUES FOR WEEKEND: Warm temperatures are still anticipated into the weekend. Readings reach the lower 80s Saturday as a front hangs just north of the region, keeping us on the warm side. However, a few isolated afternoon thunderstorms are possible. Not everyone sees a storm, however. Sunday, temperatures still push the 80 degree mark with the front in the vicinity. There’s partly sunny skies, and the chance for an isolated thunderstorm. Temperatures should still reach 80 degrees for many.
NEXT WEEK: More warmth and even unsettled conditions are anticipated into early next before temperatures begin to cool. Monday brings the chance for thunderstorms during the afternoon or evening hours as the next system approaches. Depending on timing, temperatures could reach 80 degrees again for many. Skies dry out for Tuesday, and cooler air begins to slip into the area. Temperatures aren’t as warm, but still a bit mild for this time of year. Readings during the afternoon are in the lower to middle 70s.
Have a great Wednesday!
SEVERE WEATHER AWARENESS WEEK
Severe Weather Awareness Week continues Wednesday throughout Pennsylvania. The National Weather Service provides a topic of discussion each day. Today’s topic is flash flooding.
Unfortunately, more people are killed as a result of flooding than any other weather related event. Many of these deaths are from attempting to drive through flooded roadways. It’s very remember to “Turn around, don’t drown!” It’s a simple rule, but many do not heed the message enough.
Stay with FOX43 Weather through the rest of the week more information to keep you safe and prepared this severe weather season. Stay with FOX43 for the latest forecast information to keep you ahead and ready for storms.
