Re: Central Pennsylvania Weather Briefing

These storms have a history of 70 mph winds across Ohio. Hopefully they weaken before they hit.?
Current weather?radar is showing this stormfront to the north of us and near the Ohio/Pennsylvania border,? So it's moving slower than anticipated but still headed this way.? Look for an evening event....
Thank you.

Further southeast, strong-to-severe thunderstorms are still possible. Damaging winds will be the main hazard with large hail as a secondary concern; however, an isolated, weak tornado cannot be ruled out across western Pennsylvania.
Important Changes: Minor adjustments to timing information and additional information/forecast challenges.
