EYEWITNESS WEATHER (WBRE/WYOU) — It’s a steamy and stormy start to the week for northeast and central Pennsylvania.

Heat advisories are in effect for most of our region for Monday and Tuesday. Heat index values may reach between 95 to 100 degrees.

In addition to the heat, it will be rather muggy with dew points in the lower 70s.

While most of Monday and Tuesday is dry, afternoon and evening showers and storms are likely. A shower or storm is possible even in the mornings, but it would be rather isolated.

Any storm may produce damaging wind gusts, downpours, and a small chance of an isolated tornado.

Be sure to take extra precautions if you plan to be outdoors for an extended time. This includes drinking plenty of water, wearing light-loose clothing, and taking frequent AC breaks.

You can stay current on all the latest weather alerts and track the storm using the Eyewitness Interactive Radar.

CrowdStrike chaos leads to grounded aircraft — and maybe an unusual weather effect
Air traffic for many airlines ground to a halt after a buggy update from CrowdStrike took down Windows computers around the world. While the IT outage is causing headaches for travelers, it may also have an unexpected effect on the climate: clearer skies and maybe lower temperatures this evening, according to David Travis, a scientist who has performed pioneering research on how jets can affect the weather. Planes flying at high altitudes frequently leave contrails, the billowy streaks created when jet engines dump water vapor and pollution into the atmosphere.

Faulty CrowdStrike update causes major global IT outage, taking out banks, airlines and businesses globally
Businesses across the world are reporting IT outages, including Windows "blue screen of death" errors on their computers, in what has already become one of the most widespread IT disruptions in recent years. The outage — linked to a software update from popular cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike — has affected computers running Microsoft Windows at organizations across various sectors, including airlines, banks, retailers, brokerage houses, media companies and railway networks. CrowdStrike's chief executive, George Kurtz, confirmed in a post on X that a "defect" in a content update for Windows hosts had caused the outage, and Kurtz ruled out a cyberattack.

CrowdStrike's rivals stand to benefit from its update fail debacle
The CrowdStrike debacle — a bug in the company's Windows software that had the disastrous effect of rendering PCs unusable — has disrupted flights, canceled elective medical treatments, and left many an office worker twiddling their thumbs for hours. Unsurprisingly, it's also tanked CrowdStrike's stock price, even as the company's CEO, George Kurtz, promises a fix and systems begin to crawl back online. While it's difficult to assess at present the business fallout from what's being called the worst IT outage in history, investors appear to be sensing opportunity.
