IT IS THURSDAY, JUNE 27TH. IT’S FINALLY THURSDAY AND REGINA REGINA AHN AND I’M ANNE SHANNON. WE ARE NOW GOING TO BE JOINED BY METEOROLOGIST CHRISTINE FERREIRA AND THE STORM TEAM FORECAST. AND CHRISTINE GOT A LITTLE RAIN LAST NIGHT, WHICH WAS MUCH NEEDED FOR MOST OF THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY. IT WAS SO EXCITING. FINALLY, AFTER WEEKS WITHOUT RAIN AND MANY SPOTS REALLY NEEDED IT, ESPECIALLY FOR THE CROPS. WE GOT IT! LET ME SHOW YOU OUR STORM TEAM LIVE RADAR NETWORK THIS MORNING. THINGS ARE QUIETING DOWN. THE RAIN IS MOVING EAST. WE STILL HAVE SOME CLOUDS, BUT THOSE CLOUDS WILL BE GRADUALLY CLEARING. THIS MORNING, TEMPERATURE WISE IN THE 60S FOR MOST SPOTS. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF 70S ON THE MAP, BUT NOTICE HUMIDITY. IT’S STILL KIND OF ON THE MUGGY SIDE. HUMIDITY WILL BE DROPPING BY THE HOUR THOUGH. BEHIND THIS COLD FRONT IT IS GOING TO FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE THIS AFTERNOON WE’LL HAVE A SEASONABLE HIGH OF 86 DEGREES, MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES LATER, A LIGHT NORTHWESTERLY BREEZE. JUST A BEAUTIFUL DAY. JUST A LITTLE MUGGY TO START THOUGH, SO KEEP THAT IN MIND AS YOU HEAD OUT THE DOOR. BACK TO YOU. THANKS, CHRISTINE. THOUSANDS OF RESIDENTS ACROSS THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY REMAIN WITHOUT POWER THIS MORNING AFTER LAST NIGHT’S STORMS. MORE THAN 4000 PEOPLE ARE WITHOUT POWER IN DAUPHIN COUNTY, AND MORE THAN 1000 WITHOUT POWER IN CUMBERLAND COUNTY, ACCORDING TO PEOPLE. POWER IS EXPECTED TO BE RESTORED BY TONIGHT. TONIGHT IS THE FIRST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE OF THE 2024 GENERAL ELECTION. PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN AND FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP WILL TAKE THE STAGE IN WHAT WILL BE AN UNFAMILIAR FORMAT WITH NEW RULES, NEWS 8 CHRISTOPHER SALAS REPORTS FROM ATLANTA WITH A PREVIEW OF WHAT WE CAN EXPECT ON THURSDAY. IT WILL BE THE EARLIEST PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE IN HISTORY, AND IT’S THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY FOR THE TWO CANDIDATES TO REINTRODUCE THEMSELVES TO VOTERS AND MAKE THE CASE WHY THEY SHOULD BE SENT BACK TO THE WHITE HOUSE. NOW, THESE ARE FAMILIAR CANDIDATES, BUT IT’S AN UNFAMILIAR FORMAT. THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE A LIVE AUDIENCE, AND THE MICS WILL BE TURNED OFF WHEN IT IS NOT THE CANDIDATE’S TURN TO SPEAK. AND EXPERTS SAY THAT MAY GIVE MORE TIME TO HEAR ABOUT THE ISSUES. BUT PERHAPS THE BIGGEST ANSWERS COMING OUT OF THURSDAY’S NIGHT DEBATE COMES ABOUT CONCERNS AND QUESTIONS OVER CHARACTER AND COMPETENCE FROM THE TWO CANDIDATES POLLS SHOW VOTERS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE MENTAL AND PHYSICAL FITNESS OF PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN, WHILE OTHER VOTERS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP’S LEGAL TROUBLES, PARTICULARLY NOW THAT HE HAS FELONY CONVICTIONS. SO A POOR PERFORMANCE FROM EITHER OF THE CANDIDATES COULD EXACERBATE SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS. WHILE A STRONG PERFORMANCE COULD REALLY CALM SOME OF THOSE FEARS IN VOTERS ALTOGETHER, THERE IS A LOT AT STAKE IN ATLANTA REPORTING IN ATLANTA. I’M CHRISTOPHER SALAS NOW, BACK TO YOU. AND YOU CAN WATCH THE CNN PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE RIGHT HERE ON WGAL TONIGHT AT NINE, AN AUTOPSY IS SCHEDULED FOR THIS MORNING ON A YORK WOMAN WHO DIED AT PINCHOT STATE PARK IN LEWISBERRY.

SUSQUEHANNA TOWNSHIP POLICE SAY KAYLANI TERRY WAS LAST SEEN LEAVING REDWOOD STREET NEAR UNION DEPOSIT ROAD ON MONDAY. ANYONE WITH INFORMATION ON HER WHEREABOUTS SHOULD CALL POLICE IN YORK CITY, A NONPROFIT IS LOOKING TO CONNECT WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS FOLLOWING RECENT GUN VIOLENCE. RIGHT NOW, YOU’RE LOOKING AT A COMMUNITY WALK THAT WAS HOSTED BY YORK’S GROUP VIOLENCE INTERVENTION TEAM. VOLUNTEERS WERE WALKING THE STREETS AND MEETING WITH CITY RESIDENTS WHILE HANDING OUT STICKERS THAT SAY MORE GRADUATION’S LESS FUNERALS. LITERALLY JUST WALKING UP THE STREET, HANDING OUT SNACKS, CANDY WATERS, PLAYING IN THE PARK WITH CHILDREN, TALKING TO THE COMMUNITY, UM, FINDING OUT WHAT THEIR FEARS ARE, WHAT THEIR CONCERNS ARE, AND ASKING THEM WHAT ELSE CAN WE DO? THAT WALK OFFICIALLY STARTED AT 650 LAST NIGHT. ORGANIZERS SAY THAT WAS THE EXACT SAME TIME THAT FOUR YOUNG WOMEN WERE SHOT AT ON MONDAY NIGHT ALONG WEST MARKET STREET.

THIS IS VIDEO OF PROTESTS THAT HAPPENED IN LANCASTER IN THE WEEKS FOLLOWING THE START OF THE ISRAEL-HAMAS WAR, AND TUESDAY NIGHT, DOZENS OF LANCASTER RESIDENTS ATTENDED THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING, CONTINUING TO VOICE THEIR OPINIONS ABOUT THE WAR. PUBLIC COMMENT LASTED FOR MORE THAN TWO HOURS, WITH MANY ADVOCATES PUSHING FOR THE CITY TO PUBLICLY DENOUNCE THE WAR AND TO CALL FOR A CEASE FIRE BY PASSING THIS RESOLUTION, WE SEND A POWERFUL MESSAGE THAT OUR CITY STANDS BEHIND OUR MONIKER OF BEING A WELCOMING CITY. WE DEMONSTRATE OUR COMMITMENT TO STANDING WITH THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN MARGINALIZED AND OPPRESSED, AND WE CONDEMN THE VERY SUFFERING THAT LEADS PEOPLE TO FIND REFUGE IN OUR CITY. IN THE FIRST PLACE. OTHER RESIDENTS SPOKE AGAINST THE CALLS FOR A CEASE FIRE, SAYING IT WOULDN’T HAVE ANY EFFECT OTHER THAN TO SHOW DIVISION IN THE COMMUNITY. IN THE END, COUNCIL VOTED 5 TO 1 TO APPROVE A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A CEASE FIRE. PENNSYLVANIA SENATOR JOHN FETTERMAN VISITED ISRAEL TO SHOW HIS SUPPORT FOR THE ISRAELI CAUSE IN ITS WAR AGAINST HAMAS. STAND WITH ISRAEL WITH ISRAEL.
