MillvilleWx Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 12z WRF-ARW 4km NAM and the other WRF cores do haves the same gusty squall containing winds around 45-60mph wrf-arw-east_ref_uv10m_neus_11.png The forcing caused by the approaching front will be extremely impressive for the line development. The warm sector of the storm ahead of the approaching front will have winds at 925 screaming from the south and southwest pre frontal passage. This combined with a tight thermal gradient behind the front will cause a linear development of storms moving rapidly to the east. The temp crash behind the front should be spectacular. 60's to 20's in 3 hrs possible is some spots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PennMan Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 68 right now in Altoona....probably was a little bit warmer in Huntingdon when I left around 3......wish it was gonna last a little longer Wow, quite a few low 70s showing up on personal weather stations from Pittsburgh to Harrisburg. Typical overperforming warmth on a sunny March day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I certainly enjoyed the heat wave we had today. At the same time the winter weather enthusiast in me can't help but be a bit disappointed that this storm shifted north enough to largely avoid us with it's biggest impacts. Blizzard warnings now up in Buf's CWA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canderson Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Looking at models, this might be a significant wind event down this way. Sustained at 35 with gusts to 55 for 9 straight hours will do serious damage with the ground being water-soaked like it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sustained at 35 with gusts to 55 for 9 straight hours will do serious damage with the ground being water-soaked like it is. Anyone else having trouble posting? We could see a 30-35 degree temp swing today. And i agree, we may go from an adv. to a watch for wind later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NortheastPAWx Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Pressure's already down to 986 here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlislePaWx Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Rats! I was getting excited over the possibility that my pressure was going to crack 29.00"....but it just bottomed out at 29.05" an hour ago and is rising now back up to 29.10". Maybe djr can check pressure records for around here. When is the last time the pressure was this low or even below 29.00"? I thought it had been many years, however, I'm thinking that when Sandy passed through here the pressure dropped below 29.00. Can anyone else check their records?? By the way, I haven't even recorded 0.04" of rain for the entire event yet. Probably going to crack that with the rain that's on my doorstep right now. My son up in Mansfield is about to get pummeled by what looks like whiteout conditions judging by radar... 40 to 45 dbz's hitting there right now. His temp is down to 25 degrees and continuing to drop quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
