I still remember, and I remember because every single county in Texas was pink on the NWS map.
-
Too soon. Remember that time in February when El Paso got a bunch of snow and the east got a bunch of digital snow that became mostly rain all the way to Canada?
-
Some of those “hillbilly nothing” towns produce some great craft beer (not that Harrisburg doesn’t). I’m down with that.

Western PA/Pittsburgh Summer Discussion 2021
TimB replied to Ahoff's topic in Upstate New York/Pennsylvania
That little bit of rain at lunchtime was the remnants of the MCS out of the Midwest. Sunshine and instability are on the rise now, could lead to some storms out ahead of the cold front. -
Cloud deck is eroding into western areas of CTP as we speak. Sure, it might be too little too late for those who want severe, but there will be sun in a pre-frontal environment most likely.
-
I know this. But we’re still pre-frontal. SW wind and DP of 71 here.
-
This game isn’t over, it’s only 2pm and we’re still hours from the best climo for severe storms in PA.
-
More than a few, if I had to guess. I’d check SPC archives if I had any idea of the date, but I think it happened in W PA once maybe last year or the year before. Edit: I forgot, ENH risk has only existed for a handful of years. So it probably hasn’t occurred many times.
-
Ah yes, the only place it’s sunny right now. We don’t have the other parameters lined up though. Further upstream over Ohio it looks like some isolated storms have fired.
-
Sun has come out upstream, if that changes the game any for instability.
-
40% chance of watch issuance...
-
Pillow has had enough rain this month, based on what I’ve seen from @mahantango#1. Hopefully you and @Bubbler86and @Mount Joy Snowmancan win today.
-
9:00 am, 12:30, 4:00, 9:00 pm (eastern) Latest outlook was largely the same as the morning one, though I’m sure the disco is worth looking at. Edit: as Newman mentioned below, the tornado outlook has decreased over PA.
-
But the Pillow Carnival is going on tonight. Some people have prepared all year for that (two years maybe, if it got cancelled last year) and I wouldn’t want them to get rained out.
-
I would tend to agree. It’s way too early to declare the severe threat DOA. But living up to the hype? That remains to be seen. That said, PBZ discussion says the MCS coming out of the Midwest has been modeled poorly thus far, and if the models don’t have that right, what else do they not have right? My point & click is down to a 20% chance of rain today and a 40% chance tonight, but of course I’m not in the prime area for this round like you guys are.

ENH moved north with 13z update:
-
Those destructive thugs, having the wind do their dirty work for them.
-
Looks like the SPC did upgrade to ENH risk roughly south of a State College to Pillow line.
-
18z GFS is back to that progressive ridge/trough pattern with no big or prolonged heat and some great days and nights in the cool parts of the pattern.
-
As a craft beer guy, I agree 100% that there’s a time and a place for light beer and usually that time and place is outside, when you plan on drinking all day. Can only drink so many 8%+ beers and it’s hard to pace.
-
I second that, craft for sure.
-
The famous canderson winds, summer edition.
-
I would assume that’s the case. But it’s not really a surprise when the GFS makes massive run to run changes beyond D7, so I have no desire to really look too far into it. If it were a pattern shift from a cold, snowy pattern in winter to a torch pattern, I might be more tempted to look at the details.
-
I know this is way late, but why in the world would there be any tears if, despite all the evidence for it, it turns out that scientists were wrong about one of the greatest threats to humanity?
-
GFS is back to spitting out a different look beyond 7 days with every run. It had a nice consistent look going for awhile.
