sauss06 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Yeah, looking now at the Radar, they don't appear to be as severe as what they were! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeffsvilleWx Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 looks like there might be some strengthening after crossing the apps. Radar seems to have reduced returns directly over the apps, which grow more intense once on the eastern side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeffsvilleWx Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Looks like an additional line of storms forming along the front. Doesn't sound like this initial round was modeled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawatch Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Pretty obvious where it has been warm for a while and where it hasn't. The squall line from UNV north went poof. South of there it looks way badass. Jamie I was watching that line when it was out in western Pa. Then like you mentioned it was gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieOber Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Jamie I was watching that line when it was out in western Pa. Then like you mentioned it was gone. Yeah, sorta sucked. The radar is hella impressive right now for rain coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Yeah, sorta sucked. The radar is hella impressive right now for rain coverage. There was a thunderstorm wind gust measured at 69mph at Chickaree Mountain near the Cambria/Indiana line with the passage of that line of storms, with a M67mph in Westmoreland county (which was an AWOS station, I'm assuming Latrobe's) prior to that. And then the storms entered the land where torches go to die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Where is the front right now The actual front is currently located in western Ohio. There is a bit of a line associated with that right now. Wouldn't be surprised to see some brief gusty storms with the frontal passage when it goes through PA. Then of course the wind will be on the increase anyways behind as the cold air rushes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 GFS with a clipper parade this weekend and early next week. Should help to reset the pack at least in the west/Laurels between that and the upslope/LES. Still think there's potential this weekend for a light snowfall off the mountains similar to last Fridays clipper event.. just a tad warmer.

MAG5035 Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 This system blew the roof of my dad's business yesterday in East Texas. Don't let your guard down. Geesh thats no good. Speaking of Texas I caught this video on CNN earlier today. Not sure what part of the state exactly, but whereever it is there was some heavy, heavy tumbleweeds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCHvx5SFyw8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
north pgh Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 This front is just east of Pittsburgh coming up on Westmoreland County. Runs north to about Clarion. We had 50 mph gust and drastic drop in temperature when it went through about 25 minutes ago. It will probably wake some on you up later as it moves through.
