MAG5035 Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Everett, PA has a tornado report from 7:06pm (Source: NWS Chat) That cell has definitely maintained itself quite well as it has traversed most of Bedford County. The rotation signature on velocity hasn't really been showing up strongly since it was more in the southern end of the county but the reports on the ground appear to be suggesting otherwise. This cell has also had a nice hail signature to it too. Couple captures when it was over Everett. Same image with CC Otherwise, attention starting to shift to the significant line in western PA and developing activity in the south. Mesoanalysis indicates a region of elevated EHI values in the west central part of the state with 0-1km values of 1-2. Would watch for potential rotation in any other activity that pops up in that particular region ahead of the line and potentially with the line as things progress toward the central part of the state. The line itself means business, brand new warnings from PIT for Indiana, Homer City, etc are of the 70mph wind variety Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAG5035 Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Mag, how's that line of storms out your way? The worst of the line appears to be taking aim at Clearfield County to the NW instead of my county (Blair). However we are experiencing some torrential rainfall from some of the other storms that have developed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavy_wx Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Superb weather for mid June. 10/10 day. Much better than yesterday here where it only got to 63F. Should see at least a couple days in the mid 80s this week with some more humidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavy_wx Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 The GFS is showing some pretty high mixed-layer CAPE values for Wednesday afternoon-evening in central PA. It also some marginal deep-layer of around 35 kts, resulting from being on the northern edge of the 500 mb ridge. This suggests we could have some kind of mcs with a fairly widespread damaging wind threat. The Euro has a similar idea as well with PA in the axis of high instability and enhanced 500 mb winds.

Eskimo Joe Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Derecho of doom inbound!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavy_wx Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Pretty nice sounding for UNV on the 12z GFS, especially with regards to the thermodynamics. There's a remnant EML between about 700 and 550 mb which helps increase CAPE above 2500 J/kg. This feature also may cap the environment until late afternoon, allowing for greater instability when storms initiate later. The slight clockwise curvature to the hodograph between 0 and 3 km and 40 kt 0-6 km shear suggests the possibility of some supercells. Even so, there still isn't too much environmental helicity and any discrete activity will likely need to form prior to the development of an MCS.

Anduril Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Is there a legit shot of severe weather today? Doesnt seem as much for today, atleast in central PA. Tomorrow looks like its def possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavy_wx Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Looks like some semi-discrete storms have fired along the surface trough from northern Indiana to CNY. The mesoscale models are suggesting that those cells will eventually merge into a linear feature and progress southeastward roughly parallel to the 0-6 km shear vectors. Speaking of which, the greatest deep layer shear is closer to the 500 mb shortwave in southern Ontario and upstate NY. By the time the MCS reaches central PA it will have less instability to work with as well as weaker shear, though the 0-1 km shear is still fairly high with a significant component parallel to the storm motion. The relatively fast, anticyclonic mid-level flow has been bringing warmer temperatures into central PA and looks to bring the remnant EML depicted by yesterday's 12z GFS in a bit earlier. As a result, there will likely be less instability vs. that which had been forecast by the 12z GFS. There should still be some chance of severe with the axis of instability generally near the mid-section of PA. The exact placement of this boundary will depend somewhat on the development of tonight's convection and subsequent outflow boundaries. There should be more multi-cell clusters and maybe some linear segments based on the unidirectional 0-6 shear around 35 kts with lower values farther south into PA. Warmest day of the year so far with 87F here as the high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavy_wx Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Seeing frequent lightning flashes in the sky to the west. Actually some decent velocities with that line; there's even a small area of 70+ mph inbound just west of Clearfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like that portion is gonna pass me by just to the north..gonna be close though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
