IN SOME PARTS OF THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY THIS MORNING. TODAY OUR NEWS EIGHT STORM TEAM FORECAST STARTS OUT WITH SUNNY SKIES BUT BONE CHILLING COLD SUBZERO TEMPERATURES CHILLS RIGHT NOW. BY 9:00 WE SHOULD SEE SINGLE DIGIT TEMPERATURES THIS AFTERNOON, INCREASING CLOUDS BECOMING MOSTLY CLOUDY TOWARD EVENING, BUT WE’LL STILL GET TO ABOUT 16 FOR OUR HIGH. THIS IS THE LAST DAY YOU’LL BE HAPPY ABOUT THIS WITH HIGHS IN THE TEENS TOMORROW. OUR HIGHS GO IN THE 20S TONIGHT. LAST NIGHT FOR THE BITTER COLD, WE COULD STILL SEE SOME SUBZERO TEMPERATURES. TEMPERATURES AROUND ZERO AND DEFINITELY SOME SUBZERO WIND CHILLS. BUT WINDS WILL BE EXTREMELY LIGHT FIVE MILES PER HOUR. THAT STILL DOES THE TRICK THOUGH, TO GIVE US THE BITTER COLD TOMORROW, LAST IMPACT DAY. BECAUSE OF THE MORNING TEMPERATURES. CHILLS WILL BE SUBZERO IN THE MORNING. IN THE AFTERNOON. LOOK AT THE HIGHS HERE 26 TO 30. NOT AS COLD AS OUR MAIN SELLING POINT. WE’LL SEE PARTLY SUNNY SKIES TOMORROW. RIGHT NOW THIS IS THE ACTUAL AIR TEMPERATURE. IT IS SIX BELOW ZERO IN HARRISBURG. THAT BEATS WHAT WE HIT YESTERDAY. FIVE BELOW WAS YESTERDAY MORNING’S LOW. AND THE RECORD FOR TODAY IS NINE BELOW ZERO. THAT WAS SET IN 1984. NINE BELOW IN SELINSGROVE ZERO IN LANCASTER. WE HAVE ONE BELOW IN CARLISLE RIGHT NOW. SO WINDS ARE GENERALLY CALM OR VERY LIGHT. BUT LET’S PICK OUT A SPOT LIKE LANCASTER AT SIX MILES PER HOUR FOR THE WIND. WHAT THAT DOES TO THE WIND CHILL BRINGS IT DOWN TO 12 BELOW ZERO. THESE ARE VERY DANGEROUS WIND CHILLS. SO WHEN YOU GO OUTSIDE, YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE ALL OF YOUR EXPOSED SKIN IS COVERED UP, ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE STAYING OUT FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. HERE’S OUR CHILLS BY LATE MORNING. STILL IN THE NEGATIVES IN SOME SPOTS, BUT LATER TODAY, THERE’S NOT MUCH OF A WIND CHILL BECAUSE THE WINDS WILL BE CALM. SO THAT IS THE GOOD NEWS. WITH HIGH PRESSURE MOVING OVERHEAD TOMORROW MORNING. LAST MORNING FOR THE SUBZERO TEMPERATURES AND CHILLS, THESE ARE YOUR WIND CHILLS TOMORROW MORNING. AND BY TOMORROW AFTERNOON. NOT MUCH OF A CHILL NOT FAR FROM THE TEMPERATURE, WHICH WILL BE IN THE 20S. HERE’S A LOOK AT OUR STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK. IT IS CLEAR WE HAVE CLEARED OUT OF THE CLOUDS OVERNIGHT, SO THE CLEAR SKIES, THE CALM WINDS, THE FRESH BLANKET OF SNOW, ALL OF THOSE THINGS CONTRIBUTING TO THE EXTREME COLD THIS MORNING. IN ADDITION, WE HAVE A STRONG AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE BEARING DOWN ON US. NOW LOOK AT THAT. WE GET MORNING SUN, BUT CLOUDS INCREASE BY AFTERNOON. TONIGHT PARTLY CLOUDY. THE CLOUDS MAY HELP US OUT A LITTLE BIT, KEEPING US A BIT WARMER TONIGHT. AND THEN FINALLY, AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW, WE’LL GET SOME MORNING SUNSHINE, PARTLY SUNNY SKIES IN THE AFTERNOON, MAYBE A FLURRY LATE TOMORROW NIGHT. NOW FRIDAY LOOKS PARTLY SUNNY. NOT MUCH COMING DOWN THE PIKE AS FAR AS WEATHER IS CONCERNED. THE COLD STARTS TO LIFT OUT AND YOU WILL SEE THAT MODERATION HERE IN OUR TEN DAY FORECAST FOR FRIDAY, THE HIGH IS 30. SATURDAY 32 SUNDAY. WE’RE FINALLY BACK TO SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES 38 DEGREES AND WE STAY NEAR THAT. 38TH MAY TOUCH 40 IF WE MELT ENOUGH SNOW. BY THE TIME WE HIT MID WEEK NEXT WEEK, BUT ALL THINGS CONSIDERED, NEXT WEEK. NOT AS HARSH FOR HIG

As we brace ourselves for another frigid start to the day, it’s hard to believe that this may be the last time we see highs only in the teens for quite some time here in south-central Pennsylvania. With temperatures hovering around the single digits this morning, it’s clear that winter is still holding on tight.

But fear not, as warmer days are on the horizon. The forecast is calling for a gradual warming trend over the next week, with highs reaching into the 40s by the weekend. So, let’s bundle up for one last day of frigid temperatures before we can finally start to thaw out.

In the meantime, don’t forget to take precautions to stay safe and warm in these cold conditions. Make sure to dress in layers, limit time spent outdoors, and check on elderly or vulnerable neighbors. And remember, spring is just around the corner – we just have to get through this last blast of winter weather. Stay warm, south-central Pennsylvania!
