    Yeah, looking like a -0.1, maybe a -0.2 depending how cold we get by 1am Sunday. Important to note that May has warmed tremendously in recent years and this month would have been decisively above normal according to the 1981-2010 normals.
  2. TimB
    A shame that we’re going to back into a below normal month after such a warm start. Really thought we’d get 23 out of 24 for the 2 year period starting July 2023.

    If this morning’s low of 69 holds, it’ll be a daily record warm min. Only once has a low of 69 or higher been recorded at PIT on or before May 16th, though there are a handful of other instances in the threaded record.

    Who’s ready for days and days of cut-off low misery?
  5. TimB
    Might we make a run at 90 tomorrow?

    The record for most 75+ degree days through the end of April is 15 in 1945. The record since observations moved to the current airport location is 12 in 1960. We’re currently at 7 with a decent shot of up to 7 more before the month is over.

    To add to that, today is tied for the 7th earliest 86 degree day on record, and is third earliest at PIT. 4/11/1930 4/14/1883 4/16/2002 4/17/1896 4/18/1896 4/18/1976 4/19/1941 4/19/2025

    Yes, officially the first April morning that hasn’t dropped below 73. If we weren’t getting a cold front today we could have obliterated the record warm low for April.
  9. TimB
    79 on the 10pm hourly obs at PIT. Warmest 10pm temp ever observed in April at PIT. Edit: we also smashed nearly every hourly record overnight. Temp hovered at 76 until 5am and has just now dropped to 73 or 74.
  10. TimB
    That is the coldest max ever recorded in the month of April, and by a full 3 degrees at that. Interestingly, today also claims a tie for the record high for the month of April, with 90 in 1896.

    Thing passed right over the north hills. My biggest hailstones were around quarter to half dollar size. Reports of up to golf ball.

    This past weekend was the first time on record that PIT airport didn’t get below 60 for consecutive days in March.
  13. TimB
    Low of 64 so far. If that holds through 1am (possible) it will be the warmest March low ever observed at Pittsburgh International and tied for 2nd in the entire period of record.
  14. TimB
    Officially a high of 81 at PIT. This is the earliest ever 81 on record, just 134 days after we recorded the latest ever 81 on record on 11/5/2024.
  15. TimB
    Looks like we did reach 80. That hourly obs of 80/14 is now officially the lowest relative humidity ever observed at PIT (8%).
  16. TimB
    Current obs of 79/16 at PIT. 9% relative humidity. Lowest relative humidity ever observed on a 4pm obs at PIT. If you throw out the 6% at 10am on 7/29/96, which is definitely erroneous, this is now tied for the 2nd lowest relative humidity ever observed at any hour at PIT, behind just the 6pm obs on 3/30/07. I looked at the unrounded csv file and it’s actually a hair lower than the other 9% obs.

    Also, Tuesday 3/11 through Sunday 3/16 is the earliest in a calendar year we’ve ever had 6 straight 70 degree days. Previous earliest was 3/13-23/2012.

    Sounds like Latrobe gusted to 89 during the storms yesterday. https://x.com/NWSPittsburgh/status/1901611673460375904

    The only days that have been at or above 79 this early in the season are 3/8/2000 (80), 3/11/1876 (80), and 3/14/1990 (79). Was hoping we could squeeze out a couple more degrees and follow up our latest 81 ever recorded last November with our earliest 81 ever recorded, but it wasn’t to be.

    Really that lake streamer the weekend before Christmas that dropped 1” at the airport and 4-6” in the north hills would have put us pretty damn close to normal. Some of us might be already pushing 40” in our backyards.
  22. TimB
    Along those lines, we are now at 1091 days and counting with 3.3” of snow or less, and obviously very likely to add at least 250 more days to that streak. Previous record was 1015, from 2/20/1972 to 11/30/1974. That is the only other time we’ve gone two consecutive winters (let alone three) without recording 3.4” or more on a single day.
  23. TimB
    The craziest part of this is, today is now officially the snowiest calendar day of this winter.
  24. TimB
    And it’s gone.

    It’s probably more accurate to measure every inch that falls, regardless of when it melts. We don’t measure rain every 6 hours to give it time to evaporate, do we?
