AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PITTSBURGH PA
347 PM EDT FRI OCT 27 2006

.SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)...
MAIN CONCERN WILL BE THE STRONG WIND GUSTS THAT WILL ACCOMPANY THE
PASSAGE OF THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM LATE SATURDAY INTO EARLY SUNDAY.
IN CONCURRENCE WITH NEIGHBORING FORECAST OFFICES, HAVE ISSUED A HIGH
WIND WATCH FOR THAT PERIOD. THE FORECAST WAS BASED ON BOTH THE GFS
AND NAM-WRF MODEL RUNS SHOWING 850 MB (5 KFT AGL) WINDS 50-60 KTS
SATURDAY EVENING WITH MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOWING A WELL-MIXED BOUNDARY
LAYER. SUBSIDENCE, AS EVIDENCED BY SURFACE PRESSURE RISES OF 3-5 MB,
SHOW THE POTENTIAL FOR WIND SPEEDS TO REACH 60 MPH SATURDAY NIGHT.

AS FOR RAIN, EXPECT RAIN TONIGHT TO TAPER TO SHOWERS SATURDAY IN THE
WAKE OF THE LOW PRESSURE CENTER. AS COLD AIR ENTERS THE UPPER OHIO
VALLEY, THE PRECIPITATION WILL CHANGE TO SNOW AT TIMES LATE SATURDAY
INTO SUNDAY. DUE TO THE WEST-TO-EAST ORIENTATION OF THE WINDS,
MOST OF THE TRULY LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL BE WELL NORTH OF
INTERSTATE 80.

&&

.LONG TERM (SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)...
AFTER THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM EXITS THE REGION, THE UPPER JET STREAM
BECOMES MORE ZONAL. THIS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO MODERATE NEXT
WEEK, AS EVIDENCED BY GFS MOS AND HPC VALUES. SHORT-WAVE TROUGHS
RIPPLING THROUGH THIS ZONAL JET MAY BRING OPPORTUNITIES FOR
PRECIPITATION FOR THE MIDDLE AND LATTER PART OF THE WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...
DEEPENING SURFACE LOW OVER WESTERN KY WILL MOVE ACROSS THE UPPER
OHIO VALLEY TONIGHT AND INTO WESTERN NY BY MIDDAY SATURDAY.
MVFR CONDITIONS WILL LOWER TO IFR ACROSS TERMINALS BY EARLY THIS
EVENING AS RAIN BECOMES STEADIER AND HEAVIER. EXPECT SOME GRADUAL
IMPROVEMENT TO MVFR DURING SATURDAY MORNING AFTER LOW PASSES BY AND
SURFACE WINDS BECOME WESTERLY. EXPECT WINDS TO GUST OVER 30 KT BY
LATE SATURDAY MORNING. ALSO MENTION LLWS FOR ALL TERMINALS EARLY
TONIGHT AS 2000 FOOT AGL WINDS INCREASE TO AROUND 30 KT.

WIND GUSTS OVER 40 KTS MAY BE POSSIBLE SATURDAY NIGHT.

&&

.PBZ WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
MD...HIGH WIND WATCH FOR MDZ001 FROM 4 PM SATURDAY TO 10 AM SUNDAY.
