north pgh Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 When you say gusting winds, do you mean like 15 MPH...lol. Maybe a gust to 20 !!!!! Hey, I am getting my new lawn and Ivy watered finally. A whopping .07 in the rain gauge so far. It probably still will need to be watered tonight as the ground has been bone dry under the surface. Boy when we get a large MCS moving over Lake Erie they run into a brick wall in Allegheny County. This seems to have been the case for years now.

blackngoldrules Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 A wind gust of 59mph was reported at Pit Int'l today. My wife knows all about it, because she was parked in her work parking lot on her lunch when some guy pulled in right next to her. He opened his door and lost control of it in the wind smacking into and denting my wife's car. Just bought the car 8 months ago too. Figures. Thank God for insurance in this case. I saw an inside out umbrella in a parking lot from the wind as well. It got a little crazy early afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADDITIONALLY...SMALLER-SCALE DISTURBANCES ARE PROGGED TO CROSS THE GREAT LAKES/NORTHEAST U.S. WITHIN FAST WLY FLOW -- WITH THE FLOW FIELD TO BECOME INCREASINGLY CYCLONIC WITH TIME ACROSS THIS AREA AS THE SRN FRINGE OF AN EWD-MOVING ERN CANADA TROUGH AFFECTS THIS AREA. AT THE SURFACE...A COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE ERN CANADA TROUGH IS FORECAST TO CROSS THE LOWER GREAT LAKES/ST. LAWRENCE VALLEY AND MOVE ACROSS THE NORTHEAST THROUGH THE PERIOD. THE FRONT SHOULD MAKE LITTLE SWD PROGRESS THOUGH ACROSS THE OH VALLEY...AND WILL LIKELY BEGIN A NRN RETREAT ON ITS WRN FRINGE AS A WAVE DEVELOPS ALONG THE BOUNDARY INVOF THE MID MO VALLEY. THIS FRONT -- FROM THE NORTHEAST WWD INTO THE MID MO VALLEY REGION -- SHOULD BE THE FOCUS FOR THE PRIMARY AREA OF SEVERE POTENTIAL THIS PERIOD. ...NEW ENGLAND WSWWD INTO THE MIDWEST/OH VALLEY REGION... STORMS SHOULD BE ONGOING AT THE START OF THE PERIOD ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE NORTHEAST...WITH LOW-END SEVERE POTENTIAL POSSIBLY ONGOING AS WELL. POCKETS OF HEATING/DESTABILIZATION SHOULD OCCUR THROUGH THE MORNING AND AFTERNOON...WHICH WILL SUPPORT MORE WIDESPREAD STORM DEVELOPMENT NEAR/AHEAD OF THE ADVANCING FRONT. WITH MODERATELY STRONG DEEP-LAYER WLYS ACROSS THIS REGION...POTENTIAL FOR DEVELOPMENT OF ORGANIZED/BOWING LINE SEGMENTS APPEARS TO EXIST -- ALONG WITH ASSOCIATED THREAT FOR WIND DAMAGE. HAIL WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE -- ESPECIALLY WHERE GREATER DESTABILIZATION CAN OCCUR. WEAKER FLOW ALOFT FARTHER WWD INTO THE MIDWEST SUGGESTS SOMEWHAT LESSER SEVERE POTENTIAL...WITH THE GREATEST THREAT LIKELY FROM THE LOWER GREAT LAKES/UPPER OH VALLEY ENEWD. WHILE POTENTIAL ACROSS THE ENTIRE REGION SHOULD DECREASE OVERALL INTO THE EVENING/OVERNIGHT...LIMITED THREAT MAY PERSIST ACROSS SRN NEW ENGLAND/NY/PA/NJ THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. ...MID MO VALLEY REGION...

THOUGH THE WARM SECTOR BOUNDARY LAYER SHOULD REMAIN CAPPED INTO THE AFTERNOON...MODEL DEPICTIONS OF A SHORT-WAVE TROUGH MOVING NEWD INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS AHEAD OF THE MAIN TROUGH FARTHER W SUGGESTS WEAKENING OF THE CAP...AND SUBSEQUENT STORM DEVELOPMENT. OVERNIGHT...MORE WIDESPREAD/ELEVATED STORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED N OF THE FRONT ACROSS IA AND ERN NEB. SURFACE-BASED STORM COVERAGE IS A QUESTION ACROSS NERN KS/NRN MO/SRN IA/FAR SERN NEB. HOWEVER...AMPLE CAPE -- AND SHEAR SUFFICIENT FOR SUPERCELLS -- SUGGESTS AT LEAST 15% SEVERE PROBABILITIES FOR HAIL/ISOLATED DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLY A TORNADO OR TWO. ATTM...WILL NOT UPGRADE THE PROBABILITY DUE TO UNCERTAINTY...BUT THIS AREA COULD REQUIRE HIGHER SEVERE PROBS IN LATER OUTLOOKS. OVERNIGHT...HAIL IS ALSO EXPECTED WITH THE ELEVATED STORMS EXPANDING WITHIN THE WARM ADVECTION REGIME N OF THE SURFACE FRONT. ...APPALACHIANS... WITH THE UPPER RIDGE ACROSS THE SERN U.S. EXPECTED TO WEAKEN A BIT THIS PERIOD...ACTIVE AFTERNOON CONVECTION WILL LIKELY DEVELOP -- INITIALLY OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF THE CENTRAL AND SRN APPALACHIANS. THOUGH THE FLOW FIELD WILL REMAIN QUITE WEAK UNDER THE UPPER RIDGE...A DEEP BOUNDARY LAYER SUGGESTS POTENTIAL FOR COLD POOL DEVELOPMENT -- AND THUS THE POSSIBILITY OF POCKETS OF ISOLATED DAMAGING WITH THREAT INTO EARLY EVENING. ..GOSS.. 06/08/2011 CLICK TO GET WUUS02 PTSDY2 PRODUCT NOTE: THE NEXT DAY 2 OUTLOOK IS SCHEDULED BY 0600Z CURRENT UTC TIME: 1848Z (2:48PM), RELOAD THIS PAGE TO UPDATE THE TIME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

north pgh Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 And diving a bit south as well. We must have a warm cap over our area because storms are fireing to our East also. Lately almost every MCS weakens as it moves in and re-developes to our East. I wouldn't be surprised if this thing goes south and then hooks up with the activity to our east and forms a solid line to our south and east.
