Weather Impact Alert until midnight Tuesday

Scattered thunderstorms are expected to continued Monday evening, especially west of Harrisburg. Storms could produce isolated damaging winds gusts and torrential downpours that could lead to some areas of flooding. A very weak and very brief tornado can’t be entirely ruled out either, but that risk eases with every second that passes.
Areas west of Harrisburg is highlighted in a Level 2 out of 5 threat
for strong to severe thunderstorms.
Areas along and east of Harrisburg are in a Level 1 out of 5 risk.
Secure any loose outdoor objects. Spotty power outages are possible, along with the potential for broken tree branches and limbs. Be weather aware and have a way to receive severe weather alerts. Make sure you have a plan to get inside if you hear thunder or see lightning. Stay with the FOX43 Weather Impact Team for more updates as they come!
