Pittsburgh, Pa. – Falling temperatures could create slick roads across Pittsburgh overnight as snow moves in.
According to the US National Weather Service Pittsburgh, current road conditions are mostly good, but drivers should be alert for slick spots developing late tonight. Snow and dropping temperatures are expected to move into the region, potentially leading to icy patches on untreated surfaces.
The weather service advised motorists to use caution overnight into early Monday morning, particularly as temperatures fall below freezing. Even limited snowfall combined with cooling pavement temperatures can create isolated icy stretches, especially on bridges, overpasses and less-traveled roads.
Officials have not reported widespread travel disruptions as of Sunday afternoon. However, changing conditions after dark could impact the Monday morning commute if surfaces refreeze or become snow-covered in spots.
Drivers are encouraged to reduce speeds, increase following distance and remain alert for sudden changes in traction. Conditions can vary significantly within short distances, particularly in elevated or shaded areas.
The advisory comes as temperatures trend downward through Sunday night into early Monday, increasing the likelihood of slick patches forming before daybreak.
Commuters and early-shift workers may want to allow extra travel time Monday morning as a precaution.
Updates will be provided by the National Weather Service Pittsburgh as conditions evolve.
