Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Pittsburgh PA
951 AM EDT Wed Aug 11 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
Seasonable warmth, humidity, and periodic showers and thunderstorms
can be expected until cold frontal passage late this week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
An easterly propagating line of thunderstorms will arrive in eastern
Ohio within the late morning/early afternoon hours. This line will
be monitored as it interacts with remaining dry air aloft in the OH
Valley, where in spots, DCAPE values exceed 1000 j/kg. Instability is
present, and cold pool dominance is likely, so some storms may carry
damaging wind gusts.

Thunderstorms are generally possible this afternoon and evening as
shortwaves propagate through the Ohio Valley, with above the
climatological norm warmth and plenty of moisture.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Thunderstorm chances continue into Thursday as embedded shortwaves
advance through the base of an elongated trough center near the
Great Lakes.

Temperature wl also continue to be above average with the support of
warm, moist advection. Thursday is still borderline approaching Heat
Advisory headlines as Heat Index values are currently forecasted to
be in the upper-90s in portions of our region.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A cold front is anticipated to enter the Ohio River Valley late
Friday/early Saturday. Therefore, thunderstorm chances will persist
ahead along the boundary. The frontal passage will moderate
temperature back to climatological norms for the weekend.

Depending on the position of high pressure, showers may return to
the region starting Monday and carry into Tuesday as warm, moist air
returns from the south.

&&

.AVIATION /14Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
VFR is expected for most terminals through dawn, with the exception
of MVFR/IFR at FKL and DUJ with low lvl moisture in place through the
early morning. Brief restriction is likely when thunderstorms
develop, which is possible this afternoon at all terminals.

.Outlook...
Periodic restrictions in showers/tstms are likely thru Sat with a
series of crossing disturbances.

&&

.PBZ WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
PA...None.
OH...None.
WV...None.
