Pittsburgh, PA – A Frost Advisory remains in effect for parts of Western Pennsylvania, including Jefferson, Armstrong, Indiana, and Beaver counties, as well as Hancock County, WV, from 2 a.m. to 8 a.m. Saturday. According to the National Weather Service, freezing temperatures may harm sensitive outdoor vegetation, and plant damage is possible if left uncovered.
The advisory expands the threat to areas where cold air is expected to settle overnight, causing frost to form. Homeowners and gardeners in the affected areas should take immediate action to protect plants, especially those vulnerable to frost.
In addition to Pittsburgh, areas like Greensburg, DuBois, and New Castle are also under the advisory. Residents in rural and suburban locations are urged to bring potted plants inside or cover outdoor vegetation with cloth or tarps. This is especially critical for early-blooming flowers, vegetables, and any delicate crops.
Temperatures are expected to warm up after 8 a.m., and the advisory will expire. However, this marks a key reminder that spring weather can still bring unpredictable overnight cold snaps. Stay tuned for further updates.
