The foretasted high is 77 for tomorrow. Thats just incredible when you think about it, especially when its been proceeded by a week of way above normal temperatures. That is to warm, Ive been enjoying the 60s and 70s.. but almost 80 in Feb... Hope we don't see any +35 departures in August... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackngoldrules Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 If someone would actually hit 80 tomorrow, that would be absolutely incredible.Previous discussion...With the front to the north andsoutherly winds across the region, the warmest day of the yearso far is expected on Friday, with nearly all locations risinginto the 70s and an isolated 80 degree reading not out of thequestion. The current forecast includes record breakingtemperatures at all climate locations and dry conditions.Sent from my SM-G920P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's looking that way but we all now how this time period we are in now turned out. The difference is theres cold in Canada and good blocking. Regardless I'll enjoy whatever we get. As long as it's not 36 and heavy rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mailman Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Mesoscale Discussion 0208 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0749 PM CST Fri Feb 24 2017 Areas affected...Portions of Ohio...northern Kentucky...western Pennsylvania...and western West Virginia Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 38... Valid 250149Z - 250345Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 38 continues. SUMMARY...Strong/marginally severe storms are progressing eastward across Watch 38 this evening, with locally damaging winds the main threat. While downstream watch issuance appears unlikely, convective trends will be monitored this evening. DISCUSSION...Small clusters/bands of cells, associated with a pre-frontal trough, are shifting east across Severe Thunderstorm Watch 38 this evening. Occasional bowing segments and a few elevated cores have been noted across Ohio and Kentucky this evening, and a deep layer of enhanced southwesterly flow aloft should maintain some threat for a few stronger wind gusts. However, nocturnal cooling, combined with surface dew points in the upper 40s downstream, will most likely favor a downward trend in the intensity of this broken line. Nonetheless, as stronger forcing for ascent overspreads this corridor from the west, enough erosion of convective inhibition may occur to maintain a few stronger cells east of the ongoing watch. Therefore, while probability of downstream watch issuance is less than 40%, convective trends will continue to be monitored. ..Picca.. 02/25/2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoraopolisWx Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 The mean temp of 66 yesterday, is the normal mean temperature for June 5th. Very impressive warmth. Of course it's too early to say, but this could be the first time since 1954 that February would have a higher mean temp than March. Especially if the colder March forecast verifies.

meatwad Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 SPC AC 280700 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0100 AM CST Tue Feb 28 2017 Valid 011200Z - 021200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM PARTS OF MISSISSIPPI AND ALABAMA NORTHEASTWARD INTO EASTERN KENTUCKY AND THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY... ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY NORTHEASTWARD INTO THE OHIO VALLEY AND WESTERN CAROLINAS AND NORTHWARD INTO THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES AND INTO NEW JERSEY AND PENNSYLVANIA... ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SURROUNDING THE SLIGHT RISK... ...SUMMARY... Strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible from the lower Mississippi Valley northeastward across the Tennessee Valley and southern Appalachians, and northward into parts of the Mid-Atlantic states and into portions of the Northeast. Damaging winds are forecast to be the predominant severe hazard. ...Synopsis... A large-scale mid-level trough axis over the central states will move eastward into the lower Great Lakes/Mid-Atlantic states. A 100+ kt 500-mb speed max will translate generally eastward from the OH Valley through New England and the Mid-Atlantic region during the period. In the low levels, a surface low is forecast to develop northeastward from near Detroit to northern parts of New England Wednesday night as a warm front advances northward across much of the northeastern U.S. A cold front initially over the OH Valley extending south-southwestward into the lower MS Valley will sweep eastward across much of the eastern U.S. by early Thursday morning. ...northern parts of AL/MS northeastward into the central Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic states... A squall line will likely be ongoing Wednesday morning across the OH Valley with some possible breaks and lower storm coverage farther south into the lower MS Valley. A risk for damaging winds will accompany the convective line as a plume of low-level moisture --featuring surface dewpoints ranging from around 60 degrees F at the OH River to the middle 60s in MS/AL-- contributes to 500-1000 J/kg MUCAPE ahead of the cold front. Although some slight timing differences still exist in the models, favoring a timing solution similar to the ECMWF/CMC. A strong deep-layer wind field of southwesterly flow from 50-60 kt at 850 mb and increasing with height to 70-100 kt in the midlevels, will aid in the potential risk for widespread wind damage associated with a squall line and other linearly organized storm clusters. Some tornado risk may develop as well with mature linear bands (short-lived QLCS variety) or where greater destabilization occurs. Uncertainty remains regarding destabilization to the east of the mountains in the Mid-Atlantic region. Will defer adding higher severe probabilities for this area for the time being. The activity will push east of the Appalachians by early evening and encounter gradually decreasing buoyancy in part due to the loss of heating and deeper inland mixing from southern GA northeastward along the Carolina coastal plain. As a result, there will likely be a corresponding decrease in the potential for damaging winds farther south in parts of the Southeast. ...northern PA into NY and southern New England... Strong low-level moisture/warm-air-advection into this area will lead to weak destabilization ahead of the cold front. Models vary on the degree of destabilization leading to uncertainty regarding coverage of strong/severe storms. Very strong low- to mid-tropospheric flow coupled with several hundred SBCAPE may result in some of the stronger storms or a convective line to potentially be capable of a risk for primarily damaging winds. ..Smith.. 02/28/2017 CLICK TO GET WUUS02 PTSDY2 PRODUCT NOTE: THE NEXT DAY 2 OUTLOOK IS SCHEDULED BY 1730Z CURRENT UTC TIME: 1408Z (9:08AM), RELOAD THIS PAGE TO UPDATE THE TIME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
