What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Pittsburgh, PA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jul 28, 5:09 PM EDT, 11 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 28, 5:09 PM EDT, 11 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PITTSBURGH PA
509 PM EDT THU JUL 28 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT CROSSING THE AREA FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY WILL BRING
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO MOST LOCATIONS. ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE INTO THE EXTENDED FORECAST.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HAVE UPDATED FORECAST FOR THIS EVENING TO INCLUDE MENTION OF
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH DAMAGING WIND THE MAIN SEVERE THREAT.
LARGE HAIL IS SECONDARY, AND WITH HIGH FREEZING LEVEL MAY BE HARD
TO GET.
OTHER THUNDERSTORM HAZARDS INCLUDE FREQUENT LIGHTNING AND HEAVY
RAIN. THUNDERSTORMS CAN REPEAT, PER RECENT RADAR DATA AND HRRR
MODEL OUTPUT, SO WILL BE MONITORING RAIN AMOUNTS FOR FLOOD
POTENTIAL. RAIN AMOUNTS OVER 2 INCHES THIS EVENING MAY CAUSE
FLOODING. IN URBAN AREAS, NEED 1.25 INCHES.

THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DECREASE IN INTENSITY AND COVERAGE AFTER
MIDNIGHT.

CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN WARM AND HUMID OVERNIGHT...WITH MOST
LOCATIONS ONLY DROPPING INTO THE LOWER 70S OVERNIGHT.

COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY DRIFT EAST ON FRIDAY...REACHING OHIO BY EARLY
AFTERNOON. THINK THAT MOST PRECIP WILL HOLD OFF UNTIL THEN...AND
HAVE GONE WITH LIKELY POPS NORTH OF PITTSBURGH. HIGHS WILL RISE INTO
THE LOWER TO MID 90S FRIDAY AFTERNOON. FORECAST HEAT INDEX VALUES
WILL BE JUST BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA IN EASTERN OHIO...SO WILL HOLD
OFF ON HEAT ADVISORY AT THIS TIME.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
ALTHOUGH SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ALONG THE
COLD FRONT FRIDAY NIGHT...THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING DOES NOT ALLOW
ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO CONTINUE WITH LIKELY POPS. SOME MODEL
DIFFERENCES EXIST FOR FRONTAL TIMING ON SATURDAY. HAVE PUSHED POPS A
BIT FARTHER SOUTH THAN PREVIOUS FORECAST...MORE IN LINE WITH 09Z
SREF TIMING...BUT 12Z NAM/GFS ARE EVEN FARTHER SOUTH. FOR NOW...WILL
KEEP SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS SOUTH OF THE MASON-DIXON LINE. FEEL
CONFIDENT THAT ALL PRECIPITATION WILL HAVE MOVED OUT OF THE REGION
BY SATURDAY EVENING...WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FROM THE NORTH
ON SUNDAY. HIGHS WILL BE A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL BOTH DAYS...WITH
MOST LOCATIONS NEAR 90.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL SHIFT WEST THIS PERIOD WITH WEST TO NORTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT. ISOLATED POPS AT BEST FOR NOW MONDAY AS WEAK FRONT AND
SHORTWAVE PUSH ACROSS UPPER OHIO VALLEY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING
GENERALLY DRY CONDITIONS TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT BEFORE SHORTWAVE
AND COLD FRONT APPROACH REGION WEDNESDAY AND LINGERS INTO THURSDAY.
TEMPERATURES STILL ABOVE NORMAL BUT NOT OPPRESSIVE.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MAIN AVIATION CONCERN THIS EVENING IS WITH POTENTIAL SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS AND DAMAGING WIND. MOST HAIL WILL BE ALOFT. HEAVY
RAIN CAN BRING IFR VISIBILITIES. PER RECENT RADAR DATA AND HRRR
MODEL OUTPUT EXPECT MOST STORMS WILL PASS THROUGH THE CORRIDOR FROM
KYNG-KUCP-KLBE THROUGH 02Z.

AFTER THAT EXPECT GENERALLY VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THURSDAY
MORNING WITH ONLY PATCHY MVFR FOG IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS
FRIDAY. WINDS WILL BE SOUTHWEST NEAR 10 KTS THIS EVENING BECOMING
WEST NEAR 10 KTS FRIDAY.

CONVECTIVE COMPLEX FROM GREAT LAKES WILL LIKELY BE DYING AS IT
APPROACHES AREA NORTH OF I-80 FRIDAY. A BETTER CHANCE FOR
RESTRICTIONS WITH THUNDERSTORMS LATER FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY AS A
COLD FRONT PUSHES SOUTH.

OUTLOOK /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
WEAK FRONT WILL PUSH SOUTH OF REGION SATURDAY WITH GENERAL VFR
THROUGH SUNDAY. WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE AND WIND SHIFT WILL
BRING ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS MONDAY WITH VFR OUTSIDE OF STORMS. HIGH
PRESSURE AND VFR TUESDAY.

&&

.PBZ WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

OH...NONE.
