TOILETRIES IN AN EMERGENCY CAN HELP SAVE TIME. WE’VE DEFINITELY HAD A LOT OF WEATHER GOING ON. WE ARE. AND YOU KNOW, WE CAN STILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FUTURE TOO. IT’S GOOD. NEUROLOGIST ETHAN HUSTON. SOME PEOPLE EXPERIENCING SOME STRONG WINDS RIGHT NOW. THAT’S RIGHT. ESPECIALLY OVER LANCASTER COUNTY AND INTO CHESTER AND BERKS COUNTY. SO IT’S STILL AN IMPACT NIGHT BECAUSE WE HAVE THE THREAT FOR SOME ISOLATED STRONG THUNDERSTORMS. BUT WE DO HAVE STRONG WIND GUSTS BECAUSE OF THIS PASSING COLD FRONT. AND WE ARE STARTING TO SEE SOME OF THIS RAIN SWITCH OVER TO A WINTRY MIX AND EVENTUALLY SNOW THAT WILL TAPER OFF BY ABOUT 2:00. BUT WE’RE GOING TO KEEP THIS WINTER CHILL AROUND AS IT MOVES ON IN LATER TONIGHT. FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS, BE PREPARED IF YOU’RE GOING TO BE OUT AND ABOUT FOR SAINT PATRICK’S DAY TOMORROW, TO HAVE THAT WINTER COAT. BUT MILDER WEATHER WILL RETURN ON INTO THE WEEKEND, BUT. SO WE’LL SEE MORE SHOWER CHANCES RETURNING AS WELL.

THIS IS UNTIL 1030, POSSIBLY WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 60MPH. NOW NEARING THE BERKS, CHESTER LANCASTER COUNTY LINE.

NOW WE DO HAVE AN ACTIVE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING FOR CHESTER COUNTY, BERKS COUNTY, THAT IS UNTIL 11:00, AND THAT’S CONSIDERED CONSIDERABLE. WE’RE TALKING WIND SPEEDS UPWARDS OF 70MPH. SO IF YOU’RE WATCHING US IN BERKS AND CHESTER COUNTY, THIS LINE IS VERY STRONG. BUT YOU CAN SEE THAT SNOW EXTENDING OVER WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE VALLEY. SO THE RAIN TO SNOW WILL LIKELY. TRANSITION WILL CONTINUE ALONG WITH THE GUSTY WINDS. COATING TO AN INCH OF SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE MOSTLY ON THE GRASS. LOOK FOR TEMPERATURES TO START FALLING INTO THE UPPER 20S TO 30 DEGREES AS THE PRECIPITATION TAPERS OFF, IT’S GOING TO BE A BLUSTERY START TO OUR SAINT PATRICK’S DAY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE 20S. FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE TEENS IN THE MORNING. AND THEN WE’RE ONLY GOING TO MAKE IT TO THE MID TO UPPER 30S FOR OUR HIGHS TOMORROW. IT FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES REMAINING IN THE 20S COULD SEE THE RETURN OF SOME FLURRIES AT TIMES TOMORROW AFTERNOON. IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR THAT MILDER WEATHER THAT WILL BE AROUND FOR THE WEEKEND, WITH INCREASING CHANCES FOR SOME SHOWERS FOR YOUR SATURDAY AND ALSO LATE IN THE DAY ON SUNDAY. HERE’S A LIVE LOOK OVER CARLISLE WHERE THE RAIN IS COMING DOWN. BUT LOOK AT THE STREET LIGHT. YOU SEE THAT? THAT IS SOME SNOW AND SLEET. NOW MIXING IN WITH THAT RAIN OVER CUMBERLAND COUNTY. WE’RE AT 39 DEGREES RIGHT NOW IN CARLISLE. WINDS RIGHT NOW SUSTAINED AT 21MPH. LOOK AT THE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE. CHRISTIANA STILL AT 60 DEGREES, BUT BACK TO THE 30S ACROSS MUCH OF WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE VALLEY. AND THE WINDS HAVE BEEN WHIPPING WITH THAT WIND GUST, 59MPH, 66MPH OUT THERE. NOW IN LANCASTER, THAT’S SEVERE THUNDERSTORM STRENGTH. AND YOU CAN SEE GUSTS AT 40MPH. ELIZABETHTOWN, 52MPH IN HARRISBURG. SO INTENSE WINDS STILL OUT THERE ACROSS THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY. NOTICE THE WINDS NOT QUITE AS STRONG, BUT STILL AT A DECENT CLIP OVER WESTERN PORTIONS OF PENNSYLVANIA. AS THE SNOW IS WRAPPING UP. SO STORMS IN THE EAST, SNOW. BLUSTERY CONDITIONS OUT WEST. THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE STORM SYSTEM AS IT’S CROSSING THE VALLEY FOR EVEN BY MARCH STANDARDS. SO THERE GOES THE WORST OF THE WEATHER TO THE EAST IN TERMS OF THE STORMS. WE’LL TRACK IT HERE FOR YOU HOUR BY HOUR. SO OVER TOWARDS REDDING, COATESVILLE EASTERN LANCASTER COUNTY. BY 11:00 THERE YOU CAN SEE THE PURPLE HERE. THAT’S AN INDICATION OF MOSTLY SNOW COMING DOWN. AGAIN, A LIGHT COATING TO AN INCH, MOSTLY ON THE GRASS WILL BE POSSIBLE. SHOULD BE OUT OF HERE BY 2:00 IN THE MORNING. COLD BLUSTERY CONDITIONS WILL BE AROUND TOMORROW AFTERNOON. MAY SEE SOME FLURRIES AT TIMES. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ON IN. THAT’S GOING TO KEEP THE WINTER CHILL AROUND. THE WINDS WILL JUST NOT BE AS INTENSE WEDNESDAY AS COMPARED AS TOMORROW.
