Spot Forecast for SGL 039...PA Game Commission
National Weather Service Pittsburgh PA
654 AM EDT Tue Aug 5 2025

Forecast is based on ignition time of 0700 EDT on August 05.
If conditions become unrepresentative, contact the National Weather
Service.

.DISCUSSION...High pressure will keep mainly sunny skies in place
today. Winds will generally be from the southeast with some gusts
reaching 10 to 12 mph at times. However, no terrain features should
produce any channeling or gap winds of any type within the current
incident area. Low RH today will look to be around 39%. That could
get a tad lower but 39% should be most representative. The only
concern today would be how long the inversion traps the smoke which
;looking at this time would be just before noon.
