Weather Story for Central Pennsylvania

Severe Weather of July 18th, 2026

Multiple Rounds of Rain Moving Through

Heavy Rain Likely Today and Tonight

Daily Heavy Rain/Flooding Threat This Week

Warm & Unsettled Start to August

Here's a look at the latest radar across the area.

Showers and storms will move southwest to northeast today and tonight. Multiple rounds of heavy rain may produce flash flooding, especially northwest of I-99. Isolated gusty winds and a low end, but nonzero, tornado threat may accompany the strongest storms through the rest of the day.

Marginal Risks of Excessive Rainfall are in effect through at least Thursday with isolated flooding possible.

It will be a starkly different August this year compared to August of 2025. Frequent chances for rain across all of Pennsylvania will be a welcome change after the first two weeks of August were virtually rain-free last year.
