Gov. Wolf “hopes" some counties may soon be moving from yellow to green

PITTSBURGH — As the last western Pennsylvania county prepares to move into the “yellow” phase Friday, Governor Wolf could also be making a significant announcement about some counties that are already in that phase.

According to our partners at the Pittsburgh Business Times, the governor said during a media call on Thursday, “I’ll be announcing a whole range of counties tomorrow moving from red to yellow. The hope is that we’ll also be making some counties that might even be moving from yellow to green tomorrow.”

Wolf didn’t name specific counties, but the first to move into the yellow phase from the red were in the north-central and northwestern part of the state, including Lawrence and Mercer counties, back on May 8.

We’ll cover the announcement LIVE tomorrow in our WPXI Now streaming apps.
