Area forecast discussion, Jul 3, 1:03 PM EDT, 9 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PITTSBURGH PA
103 PM EDT TUE JUL 3 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
BROAD UPPER HIGH PRESSURE WILL MAINTAIN VERY WARM AND HUMID
WEATHER OVER THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY INTO THE WEEKEND. A SLOW
MOVING UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE TROUGH MAY CAUSE SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS WITH GUSTY WINDS AND HAIL INTO EARLY EVENING. THE
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT INTO THE DAYTIME
HOURS OF THE FOURTH.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
HAVE UPWARD ADJUSTED COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH EARLY
EVENING AND ADDED MENTION OF GUSTY WINDS AND HAIL, PER BLEND OF
RECENT RADAR AND SURFACE DATA, HRRR MODEL OUTPUT AND SPC
GUIDANCE/CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK SHOWING SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS NORTH OF I-70/.

MADE A SMALL ADJUSTMENT TO TEMPERATURES BASED ON THE PROSPECT OF
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT, BUT STILL EXPECT HIGHS UP TO 10 DEGREES
ABOVE NORMAL, AS INDICATED BY PREFERRED WARMER NAM MOS.

THE IMPACTS-BASED HEAT ADVISORY HAS BEEN CONTINUED FOR COUNTIES
IN EASTERN OHIO AND NORTHERN WEST VIRGINIA WHERE WIDESPREAD POWER
OUTAGES REMAIN. THIS IS FOR CRITERIA BETWEEN 90 AND 95 DEGREES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY/...
SHORTWAVE IS PROJECTED TOWARD NEW ENGLAND BY WEDNESDAY WITH THE
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AXIS EXTENDING BACK ACROSS THE UPPER OHIO
VALLEY ALONG WITH THE WIND SHIFT. HAVE THUS CONTINUED CHANCE POPS
INTO WEDNESDAY...BUT ALLOWED FOR A GRADUAL DECLINE TOWARD EVENING
GIVEN CONSISTENT TIMING...WITH CESSATION OF PCPN BY LATE WEDNESDAY
EVENING. EXPECT DRY WEATHER UNDER BUILDING HIGH PRESSURE FOR LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY.

TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN WELL ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH THE SHORT TERM PERIOD.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
UPPER RIDGE IS PROJECTED TO PERSIST OVER THE MS VALLEY AND MAINTAIN
WARM TEMPERATURES INTO THE WEEKEND. FORECAST READINGS ARE CLOSE
TO HPC NUMBERS WITH DAYTIME HIGHS BETWEEN 10 AND 15 DEGREES ABOVE

THE WEEKEND WHICH SHOULD SUPPORT A DOWNWARD TREND OF A FEW
DEGREES.

A WEAK FRONT IS PROGGED TO SAG SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES AND
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA LATE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...BRINGING THE
RISK FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS.

&&

.AVIATION /17Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
HAVE ADDED MENTION OF A SHORT PERIOD OF MVFR THUNDERSTORMS WITH
GUSTS TO 30 KTS FOR TAF SITES SUCH AS KFKL, KPIT, KBVI, KAGC, AND

AND HRRR MODEL OUTPUT. CONFIDENCE TOO LOW TO MENTION ELSEWHERE,
BUT MAY BE ADJUSTED BASED ON THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX MOVEMENT INTO
WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA.

OTHERWISE VFR WILL BE PREVALENT THROUGH WEDNESDAY, WITH A CHANCE
OF BRIEF RESTRICTIONS FROM SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS.
