June 14, 2026:
This is a severe weather update for the Ohio Valley, Northeast and mid Atlantic, where we are currently seeing some tornadic thunderstorms moving through Western and Central Pennsylvania, as very unstable air is currently, with twisting of the winds as you go up and height.
A tornado watch was just issued in the last couple minutes for western and Central Pennsylvania, just including Pittsburgh, and east of State College, PA. I am continuing to see tornado warned storms form, and stay tornado warned. There is also a line of Strong to severe thunderstorms, still making their way through eastern Ohio, also into western Pennsylvania, moving Eastward out ahead of the trough and cold front that will eventually make it its way through later tonight.
There is another severe thunderstorm watch for Central and western Maryland down into Central Virginia, including Central and Northern West Virginia. We have seen some severe thunderstorms, and strong thunderstorms, traverse to the northeast in this watch area, but your severe thunderstorm watch is until 11 PM in Maryland and Virginia, and until 8 PM in West Virginia. We will see if that needs to be extended until later in the evening.
Western NY, your Severe Thunderstorm Watch is until 10pm tonight. Dew points are in the 50s there, with a little less buoyancy, but still the potential for strong to severe thunderstorms today.
I explain what is going on regarding the satellite imagery and why the air is so unstable right now.
Let’s break it down…
