...WIND ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 3 PM EST THIS AFTERNOON...
.DISCUSSION...
It is a very cold start to the morning with current temperatures
around 10 degrees with observed west-northwesterly wind gusts
around 20 to 25 mph. This is bringing wind chill temperatures to
just below zero degrees. Expect isolated snow showers to pivot
through the area, but any accumulating snow ends later this
morning. The big story today will be the cold blustery conditions
with westerly wind gusts up to 45 to 50 mph. Wind Advisories have
been issued for the Allegheny Mountains from 7 AM until 3 PM
today. Expect the wind direction to be fairly persistent through
the day before shifting to southwesterly this evening.
Forecast temperatures today stay in the 20s with wind chills in
the single digits to teens. Overnight lows remain chilly with wind
gusts around 35 to 45 mph. Winds during the nighttime meander
between west and southwesterly.
The next frontal system moves across the area Wednesday afternoon
into the evening. It will be a dry frontal passage with more gusty
westerly winds expected. This dry and gusty wind pattern largely
persists through Thursday before high pressure finally builds in
by Friday. This continued windy pattern will further dry fuels
which may lead to further fire weather concerns this week. The
next chance for any rainfall would come on Sunday.
