[W8MWA] Advisory: Wind advisory from Isaias Remnants

[Jeffrey Fritz]

>From the NWS Pittsburgh:


*We are beginning to see guidance of down-sloping winds from Isaias
remnants into our lowland zones in Monongalia, West Virginia. This occurs
when a stable layer sets up at ridge height level and forces air down on
the leeward side of the ridges (in this case the westward side).*


*While we'll have to put an advisory for the whole zone, it will likely be
an area immediately adjacent to the ridges that would feel downslope
effects (highlighted in the attached graphic.) Winds of 50 to 60 MPH are
possible  *


*Keep in mind, most of the leaves are still on trees, so trees and branches
will be more prone to falling down as opposed to these same winds that we
see in the wintertime.*


Also please be mindful that, depending on conditions, the Appalachia
Skywarn Net may be activated. Several local repeaters are part of the
Skywarn net including W8CUL on 444.800 MHz, +5 MHz, PL 103.5 Hz
