Seems Pittsburgh will underachieve again, as usual. Looks like official readings stopped at 89. Maybe there's an inter hour 90+ reading, but wouldn't be surprised if it didn't make it. Made it to 88 just before noon, so it seemed like a slam dunk 92-94 degree day, but in true fashion the airport measurement doesn't move after that. Probably best to expect to come up short by 3-4 degrees from forecasted highs for this heat wave for my area. Usually, how it is anyway.
It's weird because everywhere else around the area will touch at least 90 on days like this, but the airport rarely does. I think something is wrong with the measurement device. Also, I think they're observed weather is always off. Many times it will say the day is mostly cloudy, when it very clearly is clear or mostly sunny everywhere, with the satellite showing no clouds. I think that's why they classify Pittsburgh as very cloudy, the official recordings are always off.
