  1. On the one hand, yes. On the other hand, severe weather without flash flooding happens all the time.
  2. People root for flash flooding? I’m not sure I know of many.
  3. Didn’t research it much, but I’m sure PW values are off the charts. But in general, very hard to predict let alone nail down a location.
  4. This summer has been incredible. Tons of storms, lots strong to low-end severe, very limited destruction so far. No ridiculous prolonged heat. A below normal July with no 90s.
  5. Still time, but I think we’re at risk of a proper 89ing. You’ll never hear me complain about that.
  6. Highest 5-min obs through 3:00 was still 88. Still should be able to get to 90.
  7. Yeah, someone messed up when they created the system where work provides the money required to sustain those other things.
  8. I think I saw something in the MD about values of 3000+ possible from Pittsburgh northeastward through central PA this afternoon.
  9. 12:30 update from the SPC upped the risk to ENH for areas Pittsburgh and north.
  10. And here comes the first round of thunderstorms to make 90 even harder to reach.
  11. Should be some clearing this afternoon, but I agree, our chances of tying or breaking a record seem very slim. Need 10+ degrees from 11:30. Max at PIT so far is 83. It probably isn’t impossible to pick up 7 degrees this afternoon, but I would think 11 is a bridge too far, even if we had full clearing.
  12. Remember when summer at least ended in August, and September wasn’t more gates of hell? Oh wait, that belongs in another subforum too.
  13. And here I thought a temp swing from 67 to 100 could only happen in Pillow.
  14. I talk about weather in my home subforum, which doesn’t have a covid thread, so where else am I going to talk about covid?
  15. But then why was that thread in OT also deleted?
  16. Storms have washed out the last two afternoons more than they were expected to, and although tomorrow looks less conducive for storms than either yesterday or today, the NWS is hedging their bets.
  17. No disagreement from me on that one. NWS forecast discussion mentions it as “borderline” for headline issuance, with “upper 90s” heat indices. But their point and click (at my location) shows a heat index of 102 and the zone forecast for Allegheny County says “heat index up to 104”. I’m not saying they shouldn’t issue one, just trying to come up with a reason they haven’t.
  18. I mean I guess maybe you can get by without issuing one when it’s only one day and it’s marginal. Not sure if that’s the reasoning here.
  19. Would think so. Isn’t the criteria a heat index of 100? My point & click has me at 93/73/102 at the peak and 4 hours of a heat index at or above 100. If that’s not a heat advisory, what is?
  20. Just like yesterday afternoon, 71/69 here. Hopefully warmer than Nov. 15th for you.
