AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PITTSBURGH PA
725 PM EDT TUE JUL 3 2012
.SYNOPSIS...
BROAD UPPER HIGH PRESSURE WILL MAINTAIN VERY WARM AND HUMID WEATHER
ACROSS 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 /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
UPDATED TO REMOVE THE EXPIRING HEAT ADVISORY FOR THIS EVENING.
WILL CONTINUE MENTION OF A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS INTO THE DAYTIME
HOURS OF WEDNESDAY JULY 4TH INDEPENDENCE DAY, BASED ON BLEND OF SREF
AND SPECIFIC WRF-NMM MODEL OUTPUT THAT SHOWS A SECOND
THUNDERSTORM BAND MAY MOVE SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE UPPER OHIO VALLEY
TOWARD MIDNIGHT AND A POSSIBLE THIRD BAND OF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS
DAYTIME WEDNESDAY.
MADE MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO TEMPERATURES BASED ON PREFERRED WARMER NAM
MOS. THIS NECESSITATED THE CONTINUATION OF THE IMPACTS-BASED HEAT
ADVISORY FOR INDEPENDENCE DAY FOR COUNTIES IN EASTERN OHIO AND
NORTHERN WEST VIRGINIA WHERE WIDESPREAD POWER OUTAGES REMAIN. THIS
IS FOR CRITERIA BETWEEN 90 AND 95 DEGREES. THE HEAT INDEX FOR SOME
OHIO COUNTIES CAN PEAK AT 102, WHICH EXCEEDS THE TYPICAL 100-DEGREE
CRITERIA.
&&
.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
SREF MODEL OUTPUT SHOWS INCREASED RIDGING THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY. THIS
WILL SUPPRESS THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT, BUT ENHANCE DAYTIME HEATING.
FORECASTED SPECIFIC TEMPERATURES HEDGING TOWARD WARMER NAM MOS
THURSDAY, AND WARMER ECMWF MOS FRIDAY, WHICH MEANS MOST LOWER
ELEVATIONS CAN HAVE HIGHS IN THE MID 90S THURSDAY AND POSSIBLY THE
UPPER 90S FRIDAY. LOWS WILL BE IN THE 65 TO 70 RANGE.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
UPPER RIDGE IS PROJECTED TO PERSIST OVER THE MS VALLEY AND MAINTAIN
WARM TEMPERATURES OVER THE WEEKEND. FORECAST READINGS ARE CLOSE TO
HPC NUMBERS WITH DAYTIME HIGHS AROUND 10 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL FOR
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. MODELS SHOW THE RIDGE FLATTENING AND SHIFTING
WESTWARD EARLY NEXT WEEK WHICH SHOULD SUPPORT A DOWNWARD TEMPERATURE
TREND...WITH READINGS CLOSER TO NORMAL BY TUESDAY.
A WEAK FRONT IS PROGGED TO SAG SOUTHWARD ACROSS ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA LATE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...BRINGING THE RISK FOR SHOWERS AND
STORMS. THE BOUNDARY IS PROGGED TO BECOME NEARLY STATIONARY JUST TO
THE SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA EARLY NEXT WEEK.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
SHOWERS AND STORMS HAVE EXITED SOUTH AND EAST THIS EVENING, WHILE
ANOTHER AREA OF SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS LAKE ERIE MOVES
SOUTHEAST. GENERAL VFR WITH A PERIOD OF MVFR FOG LATE NIGHT INTO
EARLY WEDNESDAY, AS LONG AS MCS OVER LAKE ERIE CONTINUES TO
GLIDE SOUTHEAST TOWARD CENTRAL PA. MAY BE A CLOSE CALL FOR KDUJ
AND KFKL IN NEXT 2-4 HOURS FOR THUNDER.

BRIEF RESTRICTIONS FROM SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS.
