Ahoff Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 3 hours ago, TimB said: Yeah, doesn’t look too impressive as far as warmth, and daily rain chances will put a damper on even the warm days. I think we could get to 70 on Wednesday and/or Thursday depending on frontal timing but our first 80 seems like a massive long shot. This past week underperformed due to clouds and rain. I expected several days well into the 60s and we never got any higher than 58. It seems this pattern is hard to shake. Hopefully, by May we see a turn around.

That would be historic, if highly unlikely. Pittsburgh has never recorded a 4” snowstorm beyond 4/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could go either way. We get more sun, maybe make a run toward 80. 70s should be pretty much guaranteed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These early 80 degree days are fantastic, before the humidity cranks up. I’d take a whole summer of days like today but sadly that’s not our climate.

Actually was at 1:05 this morning. 5-min obs make me wonder if even the 82 yesterday was accurate. There were only 2 obs that made it to 80 yesterday and both were sandwiched by missing or 3 degrees cooler temps. I know there’s a F->C->F conversion that goes on here, but it’s still a weird progression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheClimateChanger Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 All models seem to be on board for some possible accumulating snowfall next week. Euro, UKMet, and Canadian all have 3-5 inches on 10:1, but the Kuchera ratios are lower with an inch, maybe two in spots. GFS less, but maybe still a coating to a half inch.

Burghblizz Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 With all the chilly (and windy) weather, would be nice to cash in with some accumulating snow early next week. Otherwise, let’s keep it 60 and above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClimateChanger Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I was looking at old photos, and we had an inch or two of wet snow last year on April 21. Also had snow showers and a slight dusting on some elevated surfaces in 2020 on May 9th. Looks like a good chance of some late season accumulating snowfall next week.

TheClimateChanger Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Canadian looks the best with 6"+ northeast of the city on 10:1 ratio. However, the actual accumulation might be less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 4/21/21 event was impressive. I believe it was a top 5 snow event for so late in the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimB Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Seems the models that do give us Monday snow have it falling heavy for a few hours with great rates, but it’s all during the day and far too warm to stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClimateChanger Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 I’m up in northwestern Pennsylvania (near Clarion) this morning, and there was about a quarter to a half inch of snow accumulation on some surfaces this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s going to be interesting for the northern suburbs, and especially into Butler/Beaver/Armstrong. Don’t think anyone actually gets the 3-6” NAM/GFS/Euro are saying, but wouldn’t be surprised to see some heavy falling snow, with grassy areas white.

PghPirates27 Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Could we hit 85 Sunday? Looks like 80 should be pretty much a done deal at this point, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those 10th/90th percentile high temp graphics the NWS puts out on social media seem to indicate a lot of uncertainty, but with a hedge toward the warm side. For Pittsburgh, Saturday is 72-85 with a forecast of 81, Sunday is 75-87 with a forecast of 83. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
