looks like our winters (tons snow on the coast and trace back here-lol)

It continues to trend west apparently....though, I just can't imagine that continuing. Usually with Hurricanes there is a much more noticeable east trend. However, some of the models run it up through east central PA, which would give us SOME impact at least.

Man its a hot and muggy one out there already today, soaking wet after a 1.5 mile walk w/the dog.

I was thinking (hoping) it wasn't going to hit 90 again this year, but the +20 at 850 today should support 90-91 at KPIT...the high dewpoints should keep things in check.

Tomorrow may even be a degree or two warmer...gonna suck for the start of college football in the region.

Yes very hot and humid but only 66 on Monday and 69 on Tuesday.

It will feel very refreshing and a little fall-like.

I played 11 holes at the par 3 this evening, and was pretty well soaked when done.

That upper ridge had just enough coverage to keep us steamy here.

0.90" in the rain gauge since Sunday afternoon....nice to see since Canonsburg has really been dry for most of the summer....first year in the house and I've only cut grass twice since mid-June....we'll see what this closed low can do...always tough to forecast....but rainfall totals of 2-4 inches are likely across the area the next three or four days..hope you guys win out.
