KIND OF SULTRY FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. DEW POINTS ARE GOING TO STAY IN THE MID 60S TODAY, MAKING IT FEEL EVEN HOTTER. SO OUR HIGH 95. THAT COULD TIE THE RECORD. MOSTLY SUNNY, ONLY A SUPER ISOLATED STRAY THUNDERSTORM. I THINK MOST SPOTS STAY DRY TONIGHT. WE ARE MOSTLY CLEAR MUGGY WITH PATCHY FOG. TEMPERATURES NEAR 70. AND LOOK AT TOMORROW. WE DON’T QUITE MAKE IT TO 90, BUT STILL GOING TO BE WARM AND STUFFY WITH SOME SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. SECOND HALF OF THE DAY I’LL SHOW YOU COOLER WEATHER COMING UP IN THE TEN DAY. GOOD MORNING.

DAUPHIN COUNTY COMMISSIONER JUSTIN DOUGLAS AND FORMER NEWS ANCHOR JANELLE STELSON ARE EACH HOPING TO UNSEAT CONGRESSMAN PERRY THIS NOVEMBER. THIS IS THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY FOR STELSON. THIS IS HER SECOND TIME SHE’S HOPING TO RUN AGAINST PERRY. DOUGLAS HAS CAMPAIGNED HEAVILY ON THE ECONOMY, INCLUDING A PUSH TO RAISE THE MINIMUM WAGE.

AND WE WILL BE COVERING THIS ALL THROUGHOUT THE DAY UNTIL THE POLLS CLOSE AT 8:00 TONIGHT.
