Pennsylvania may end up with an emergency declaration if Hurricane Joaquin heads closer to the East Coast.
Weather models differ in its exact path and even if it will hit the coast. A declaration was prepared for Governor Tom Wolf to sign should it become necessary. If the storm affects our state, those in the most southern and southeastern areas would see the most damaging weather.
Hurricane Joaquin was upgraded Thursday to a Category 4, with winds from 130 mph to 156 mph; and several states, including Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey and North Carolina, have declared states of emergency.
Forecasters currently say Butler County is only looking at a few rain showers.
