Severe Thunderstorm Watch for parts of Western Pennsylvania (2024)

ESPECIALLY AS WE GO INTO THE AFTERNOON TOMORROW. RIGHT NOW. YEAH, IT’S HOT, 89 DEGREES, HUMID, 65 DEGREES ON THE DEW POINT. WHEN SOUTHWEST AT EIGHT MILES PER HOUR AND THREE DEGREES WARMER THAN WE WERE YESTERDAY. IT IS 85 IN CRANBERRY, MID 80S IN BUTLER AND NEW CASTLE, INDIANA AT 86 UPPER 80S FOR GREENSBURG, UNIONTOWN ALSO IN WASHINGTON AT 88 DEGREES. WE DO HAVE A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IN EFFECT. BASICALLY, IT’S CLOSE TO I-80 AND UP TO THE NORTH. THAT’S IN EFFECT UNTIL 8:00 TONIGHT, WHERE WE ARE GOING TO BE SEEING SOME THUNDERSTORMS ROLLING THROUGH. AND YOU CAN SEE A STRONG THUNDERSTORM JUST REALLY LOOKS LIKE IT’S DRIVING RIGHT DOWN INTERSTATE 80, HEADING FOR A CLARION RIGHT NOW. JUST WENT BY A EMLENTON OR JUST GETTING TO EMLENTON AND WE’LL BE HEADING TOWARDS CLARION. YOU CAN SEE IT WILL BE A BRIEF PERIOD OF VERY HEAVY RAIN, BUT A NUMEROUS LIGHTNING STRIKES WITH THIS. NOT A BIG CELL, BUT BOY, IT’S PACKING A PUNCH AS IT MOVES OFF TO THE EAST AND YOU CAN SEE THAT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE ON. AND THAT IS ABOUT IT. AS FAR AS THE STRONG THUNDERSTORMS IN THAT AREA. NOW, AS WE GO LATER TONIGHT, THERE WILL BE A CHANCE OF SOME SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY SOME THUNDERSTORMS DROPPING DOWN AS WE GO LATE TONIGHT. BUT TOMORROW IS WHEN WE ANTICIPATE SEEING THE AFTERNOON STORMS ROLLING IN. THIS IS 2:00 ON TUESDAY AND THIS LINE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS LIKELY TO MOVE INTO THE AREA AS WE HEAD INTO THE AFTERNOON. BY THE EVENING HOURS, THIS SHOULD BE OUT OF THE AREA. THEN WE TAKE IT INTO WEDNESDAY. YOU SEE SOME SUNSHINE UP TO THE NORTH, CLOUDS DOWN TO THE SOUTH, AND YOU’LL NOTICE THAT WE HAVE THE CLOUDS BEGINNING TO REVERSE FROM EAST TO WEST. AS WE’RE GOING TO START TO BE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF TROPICAL STORM DEBBY, IT WILL BE THE REMNANTS OF DEBBY BY THE TIME IT GETS TO US. THIS IS THURSDAY AT 630 IN THE MORNING. AND THEN AS WE GO LATER INTO THE NIGHT TIME, HOURS OR AFTERNOON HOURS ON THURSDAY, YOU SEE THOSE SHOWERS GET CLOSER. AND AS WE GET INTO FRIDAY, MAY EVEN HAVE A CHANCE OF ONE OF THOSE SHOWERS MAKING IT INTO PITTSBURGH. LET’S GO AHEAD AND TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT’S HAPPENING FOR TOMORROW ON TUESDAY. WE’RE PRETTY MUCH RIGHT IN THE BULL’S EYE FOR THE PLACES THAT HAVE THE BEST SHOT AT SEEING STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS MOVING INTO THE AREA, SO YOU’LL DEFINITELY WANT TO BE ON THE LOOKOUT TOMORROW FOR HEAVY RAIN, LIGHTNING, GUSTY WINDS, SMALL HAIL AS WE GO THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS ON TUESDAY. TOMORROW 68 DEGREES FOR YOUR LOW TEMPERATURE. IT WILL BE WARM AND HUMID. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVING THROUGH THE AREA 85 DEGREES FOR YOUR HIGH TEMPERATURE. AND THEN WE’RE GOING INTO WEDNESDAY. COULD HAVE AN EARLY MORNING SHOWER. OTHERWISE WE’RE UP AROUND 80 DEGREES ON BOTH WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. ON FRIDAY WE WILL BE WATCHING DEBBY TO SEE WHAT IT DOES. IF IT GETS THIS FAR NORTH TO GIVE US JUST A FEW SHOWERS IN THE AREA, 82 DEGREES FOR YOUR HIGH THERE AND THEN AS WE GO INTO THE WEEKEND
