CoraopolisWx Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I wonder what the record high, low temp is for today's date? It looks like Pit only got down to a low of 79 this morning. HL of 75 in 1978 RH in 96 in 1933 I was in Cranberry at 6am, and it was probably one of the warmest early mornings I can remember. There are some pretty impressive readings around the region this morning... middle of the day type temps. Also some serious conference heat.

OHSnow Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Wow, 98 degrees in Altoona right now with a westerly downslope flow. Reached 101 there yesterday, and today is running 6 degrees hotter! Clearfield, PA is at 95, four hotter than yesterday at the same time. The high was 98 there yesterday. And 97 at State College, also four warmer than yesterday. It hit 100 at State College yesterday.

OHSnow Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 The 101 degree high yesterday in Altoona was the hottest ever for the month of July, since records began in 1926. The previous record was 99 set on July 17, 1988. It looks like highs today might reach 102-105 in Altoona. http://www.altoonamirror.com/page/content.detail/id/552045/Penelec-monitoring-energy-flow-during-extended-hot-weather.html?nav=742 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
