A strong surface low accompanied by an upper level trough moved through the Ohio River Valley during the late evening of March 14th. A line of storms developed along the cold front and brought damaging winds across the Pittsburgh county warning area. The environment was favorable for severe weather due to low level wind shear (sfc-1km) near 35 to 40kts and mid level shear was 60kts. Temperatures during the day climbed to the upper 70s ahead of the cold front and helped increase low level lapse rates.
