Elmira Drive-in entrance screen topples after severe weather
ELMIRA, N.Y. (WETM) — A historic establishment in Elmira suffered heavy damage on Tuesday after severe weather brought strong winds to the area.
According to the Elmira Drive-in's Facebook, winds from the storms on Tuesday, April 29, hit the front entrance screen of the drive-in, resulting in it falling over.
The screen was around 50 feet tall and workers were at the theater when it happened, but no one was near it when it fell.

The main screen will be used and future updates are expected from the theater on the status of weekend movies.

Storm Team 3: Hot & humid, Sea breeze storms continue
Good morning – StormTeam 3 Meteorologist Alysa Carsley here – let's have a fabulous Friday! More of the same rinse and repeat pattern continues today and through Father's Day weekend. Scattered storms will develop across the coast first and push west of I-95 with the sea breeze. Some storms could become strong with gusty wind and heavy rain. Highs will be in the upper 80s to lower 90s. Heat index values will be over 100°F at times due to very high humidity levels. Rain tapers off every night. For Father's Day weekend – While a slight chance of rain will be possible both weekend mornings, the highest chance of rain continues to be through the afternoon and evening. The best time to celebrate dad will be in the morning part of the day – not only will it be drier, it is also the 'coolest' part of the day compared to the afternoon. Highs remain in the lower 90s. Be sure to keep an eye to the sky while staying hydrated if you have any outdoor plans over the weekend. By early next week, rain chances begin to back off just a bit with only isolated showers and storms each day. This will lead to sizzling temperatures in the mid 90s and humidity pushing the heat index to 105°F and higher each day. Heat advisories might be needed by the end of the week.

Spotty showers continue Friday with brief break in midday for the Carolinas
(PINPOINT WEATHER) — Rain and spotty storms linger this Friday morning, making for a wet and dicey morning commute. Temperatures have been locked into the low 70s overnight, with mid-80s expected to finish off the work week. Rain can be heavy at times, with a few lightning strikes possible. Look for storms and rain to taper off throughout the morning as winds stay light out of the south-southwest between 3 and 8 miles per hour. We'll get a bit of a break from the rain midday before the storms develop during the peak heating hours of the day. This will be as high temps aim for the mid-80s, landing near normal for this time of year. Friday afternoon and evening will yet again see spotty rain and storm chances with isolated downpours possible. Be on the lookout for storms to peak around dinner time and linger into the evening. We'll dip into the low 70s overnight as we head into Father's Day Weekend, and this active pattern continues. Look for Saturday to peak in the mid-80s before pop-up showers and storms plague the afternoon and evening. Sunday will bring more of the same for Father's Day, but a mix of sun and clouds will still be seen ahead of the wet weather. It won't be washed out by any stretch this weekend, but make sure to have a backup plan in place just in case. The upper 80s will land near 90 degrees heading into early next week as storm chances stick around through Monday and Tuesday. We'll be mostly dry but hot by Wednesday of next week. Friday: Mostly Cloudy & Warm with Showers & Storms. High: 85. Friday Night: Cloudy & Wet with Lingering Rain. Low: 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
