Line of showers is dying. We’re not going to have our wettest April on record. Not complaining, that’s for sure. Just surprised.
-
6th warmest April on record with an outside shot at moving up to 5th if temps continue to go up like a rocket before the rain arrives. 2nd to only 2017 at PIT.

Pittsburgh/Western PA Banter & Complaint Thread
TimB replied to blackngoldrules's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
Can’t even do heat right. NWS was bullish on challenging today’s record of 88, PIT might end up with a high of 83. -
The Buffalo and Erie data might lend a little support to the idea that it was hot that day. (The 2nd anyway).
-
Another one I want your opinion on: are the record highs of 95 on May 2 and 3, 1887 even possibly legitimate? It looks like it was cool at the coast, and we were 10+ degrees warmer than both Baltimore/DC and Columbus/Cincinnati on those dates. These can’t possibly be real.
-
PIT has done the improbable and scored an 80 today, with probably 2 more to come. This is now the 4th straight April with 4+ 80 degree days, which had never happened in four consecutive years before.
-
Probably going to come down to Tuesday. Rain seems to be done for today and we still need 0.19” to set that record. So one more shot at this. It’s actually incredible that we could fall short when we only needed half an inch of rain with 16 days left in the month.

Do I have to come in here and do Blizz’s dirty work?
-
Lol
-
With it looking less and less likely that we see another freeze, the final count may stand at 76 for the season. The previous lowest at PIT was 89 in 2016-17.
-
With PIT failing to hit freezing this morning, we probably have one more shot at it on Thursday, which is trending warmer. Our last freeze on 4/7 would be tied for 11th earliest last freeze on record.
-
Looks like simply a warm front to cold front thing.
-
Wow that’s a nearly 20 degree jump overnight.
-
Not sure I’m buying the temperature observations at PIT this morning. Jumped from 59 to 67 between the 7 and 8 am hourly observations. Everywhere else seemed to stay steady.
-
Nothing awful. Few sub-severe gusts with the front end of the line as it moved in and some thunder and lightning, mostly several miles away.
-
Overperformed our way to a 3rd 80 at PIT today. None of the days were forecast to get there.
-
4th year in a row that the temp has hit 82 before the halfway point of April. This had never happened in 3 consecutive years prior to this streak.
-
Interesting the way the western end of that line just died. We just seemed pretty starved for moisture which is fine after the last week and a half.
-
Sorry to hear, man. I know you did so much for her in her final years.
-
Officially the wettest spring day on record, surpassing last Tuesday.
-
Looks like so much more rain to come.
-
And just like that it’s the 2nd wettest April day ever observed at the airport.
-
We’re now up to 1.52” at the airport today, so we’re already up to 4th with more rain tonight and 19 more days in the month.
-
80 feels like such a soft record, considering we’ve been 78 in February and 80 in early March.
-
Hmm. Is PIT cooking the books?
