Summer Weather Rules - Updated Fri 4:30 pm

Good News/Bad News: Better Sat, but a little worse Sunday.  

First Sat: the  picture to teh left shows the Pittsburgh PA NWS radar at 4:15 pm Fri June 12. This shows a line of storms growing and moving east/southeast. This line should strengthen into the evening hours before weakening as it passes through our area after 9 pm.  


This means that the front is moving faster and will be push into and just south of our area for Sat. This means a mainly dry day with lowering humidity into Sunday. 


Sunday: Due to faster movement, the return flow of deep moisture and humid conditions returns faster as well. So late Sunday, more clouds and showers and storms are quite possible after 4 pm and through the night.


Full update Tomorrow morning early.

If you like the warmth and humidity?  You will like the next week or so. It will be warm every day and humid for many for many as well.  For the most part it will be dry for at least 90% of the time too. But that 10% could bring some heavy showers/storms Sat and again Late Mon - Tue time frame. 

If you have noticed it like to rain early in the week. Mainly Mon-Tue. It has happened for 3 straight we,eks and each time we seem to get from 1-2" widespread rain, and locally more.  The same looks true for early next week. Weather loves to repeat itself during the winter and summer seasons. And now our pattern continues. It really is marked with lots of sun for the most part (last week an exception Mon - Thu) and little times of rain. But when it rains ... it REALLY rains.  And I would not be surprised to see thing repeat again early next week. 

Points for the forecast:

1. Very warm to hot though Sat. 
2. Increasing humidity into Sat. 
3. Cooler and less humid Sun, but still warm. 
4. Very warm to hot Mon-Wed next week with building humidity and possible heat wave to our south meaning we will be close to the battle zone meaning good changes of showers/storms Mon-Tue.
