Area forecast discussion, Jun 14, 6:11 PM EDT, 2 hours 19 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Pittsburgh PA 611 PM EDT Mon Jun 14 2021 .SYNOPSIS... Thunderstorms will end over southern portions of the area this evening as a cold front exits the region Another crossing disturbance will maintain lower shower and thunderstorm chances Tuesday. High pressure will then provide dry and cooler weather for Wednesday and Thursday. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/... Line of storms continues to move southeast, ahead of a southward moving cold front. The activity has been maintained by numerous outflow boundaries that continue to spread away from dying convection. The first severe watch has ended and a second is now in effect for the southern border, in WV, until 9pm. A generally quiet overnight is then expected with the loss of instability and the passage of the front. && .SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/... Another shortwave rotating through the main northeast CONUS trough will fire off a few showers and thunderstorms on Tuesday. Coverage will be more sporadic with less upper support, and severe weather is not expected as instability and shear will be more subdued. Activity will end Tuesday evening as the shortwave departs. Surface high pressure digging into the Great Lakes will then spread its influence over our area, bringing dry and cooler weather through Wednesday night. Low temperatures in the 40s will make a return appearance. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... Dry weather will continue through at least Thursday night as the high remains in control. The next shortwave trough is then expected to advance from the Upper Midwest, with shower and thunderstorm chances returning late Friday and into Saturday as it approaches and crosses the region. Low, shortwave-dependent shower chances will then continue into Monday, with seasonable temperatures overall. && .AVIATION /22Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... General VFR for early portions of the forecast period. The exception would be at MGW which will see the risk for a thunderstorm very early in the forecast period. Expect IFR to MVFR fog to develop at most ports later tonight, especially those which saw rain. Fog will burn off quickly Tuesday morning, with return to VFR expected at all ports. Wind gusts will pick up by late morning with northwest winds of 15 to 25 mph anticipated. .Outlook... Periodic rain chances from passing shortwaves within a developing eastern U.S. trough may also create intermittent restrictions through Tuesday. VFR under high pressure is expected mid-week. && .PBZ WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... PA...None. OH...None. WV...None. &&
