I see Cranberry is north. My wife is used to the traffic, she has a 35-40 mile commute each way now. she would be working swing shifts at a hospital etc. My concern is that If I agree to move into the city, I never get to leave the city. lol. West side it out of consideration as I would be pissed when one the big east coast storms hits the area and kicks back snow to the pitt area. i see condos/townhouses are not very expensive in the Seven Springs/Hidden Valley area. May consider buying a place out in that area to get my fix if we move into the city. Assume it it nice all year around out in the higher terrain. I haven't been on for a while and just saw this. We just moved to Cranberry....very nice, safe area and it's 20-25 minutes to downtown during normal traffic. Cranberry has everything you would need yet is close to the city. The topography is gently rolling hills plus it's north of the city and will tend to stay colder when the dreaded warm wedge bulges up the west side of the mountains. This area gets some lake effect, but you would have to go a lot farther north to see the heavier LES. The township is all subdivisions but they paid attention to green space, still a lot of farms in the township. Great community parks and township pool. Neighboring Adams Twp. Is the next growing area if you like more country atmosphere. Both areas are in Butler County with a lower tax rate...pay attention to that when looking.

DISCUSSION...STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED NEAR LAKE ERIE...PROBABLY IN THE VICINITY OF A LAKE BREEZE/DIFFERENTIAL HEATING ZONE...AS WELL AS FURTHER SOUTH ACROSS EASTERN OH IN THE WARM SECTOR. WEAK IMPULSES TRAVERSING THROUGH UPPER LEVEL FLOW SHOULD AT LEAST PROVIDE SOME WEAK UPPER FORCING...AND SOUTHWESTERLY EFFECTIVE SHEAR AROUND 30 KT WITH MODERATE INSTABILITY WILL SUSTAIN ORGANIZED STORMS. MIDLEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE POOR...AROUND 5.5-6.0 DEG C/KM...WHICH SHOULD LIMIT HAIL PRODUCTION. BUT STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND PW VALUES GREATER THAN 1.75 INCHES COULD RESULT IN A FEW STRONG DOWNBURST WINDS. LOW LEVEL HODOGRAPHS FROM REGIONAL VWP/S SHOW SOME SLIGHT CURVATURE...WITH 0-1KM SRH GENERALLY AROUND 50 M2/S2 OR LESS INDICATE THAT TORNADO POTENTIAL...WHILE NOT ZERO...IS LOW. HI-RES GUIDANCE SUGGESTS A FEW STORM CLUSTERS WILL CONTINUE EASTWARD THROUGH EVENING THOUGH UNCERTAINTY EXISTS IN HOW WIDESPREAD SEVERE THREAT WILL REMAIN BEYOND PEAK HEATING WITHOUT STRONGER SURFACE/UPPER LEVEL FOCUS.

CranberryWX Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Those storms built up just to my west and northwest last evening and barely moved at all. I could smell the rain, but didn't get a drop. All I got was the outflow breeze which cooled things down. It was nice watching the distant lightning down to the SE later on after dark.

THERE IS SOME TORNADO RISK OVER ALL THE AREA BUT IS HIGHEST OVER PORTIONS OF WESTERN AND CENTRAL PA. A WEATHER WATCH MAY BE NEEDED IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. DISCUSSION...VISIBLE SATELLITE TRENDS INDICATE BOUNDARY-LAYER CUMULUS IS INCREASING ALONG BOTH THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE WIDESPREAD CLOUD/PRECIPITATION SHIELD OVER THE OHIO VALLEY AND ALONG A PRE-FRONTAL CONFLUENCE ZONE TO THE WEST OF THE ALLEGHENY MNTS OVER SOUTHWESTERN PA. A FEW SMALL ECHOES HAVE APPEARED OVER THE NORTHERN PANHANDLE OF WEST VIRGINIA...AN INDICATION OF ERODING CINH. WIDESPREAD SURFACE HEATING HAS LED TO TEMPERATURES INCREASING INTO THE UPPER 70S TO LOW 80S OVER THE WESTERN PART OF THE AREA...WITH HEATING OVER THE EASTERN/NORTHERN PART OF THE AREA LAGGING A LITTLE BEHIND AS THE WEDGE FRONT/LOW-LEVEL STRATUS HAVE BEEN SLOW TO ERODE. CONSEQUENTLY...LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES HAVE BECOME FAIRLY STEEP /7.5 TO 8 DEG C PER KM/ OVER MUCH OF THE AREA. ALTHOUGH SHEAR PROFILES ARE LARGELY UNIDIRECTIONAL AT THE PRESENT TIME /EXCEPT FOR A VERY SHALLOW SURFACE LAYER WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS PER SURFACE OBS AND KCCX VAD WINDS/...RAP AND HRRR FORECASTS SUGGEST THE HODOGRAPHS WILL RAPIDLY OBTAIN CLOCKWISE CURVATURE OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS AS THE SURFACE LOW DEEPENS AND APPROACHES THE AREA. FURTHERMORE...THE EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR -- CURRENTLY AROUND 45-50 KT -- SHOULD INCREASE WITH TIME AS THE DEEPENING TROUGH/JET STREAK TRANSLATE EASTWARD OVER THE AREA. THE PRIMARY LIMITING FACTOR IS RATHER MODEST MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND THE ASSOCIATED MODEST MIXED-LAYER CAPE VALUES OF 250-750 J/KG. THESE MLCAPE VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO RISE ONLY TO 1250 J/KG AT THE HIGHEST. A LACK OF STEEPER MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES IS PROVIDING SOME UNCERTAINTY TO THE LONGEVITY/INTENSITY OF INDIVIDUAL CELLS THAT ARE NOT BEING FORCED ALONG THE FRONT. HOWEVER...THE WIDESPREAD HEATING...ERODING CINH...AND SHEAR PROFILES THAT WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY FAVORABLE FOR ORGANIZED STORMS INCLUDING SEVERE WIND GUSTS...SEVERE HAIL...AND A TORNADO OR TWO MAY REQUIRE A WATCH ISSUANCE IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. ..CONIGLIO/COHEN/DARROW.. 10/20/2016 ATTN...WFO...CTP...LWX...PBZ...RLX...
