Fall like Conditions today….slight warming trend through the weekend

by Steve Dunford

There was thunderstorm wind damage across the Southern Seven Counties from last night’s line of thunderstorms in advance of an approaching cold front.

In the second round of precipitation, the Sesser area was hit the hardest with 2-3 inches of rain.  There were places along State Route 148 that water was over the roadway.

Enjoy the cooler but cloudy fall like weather today.  There will be a slight warming trend, with a chance of showers and thunderstorms over the weekend.
