Pennsylvania – Low clouds press against the hills around Pittsburgh this morning, casting a muted gray over wet streets and leaf-covered sidewalks. The air feels damp and unstable, hinting at building showers that could complicate early errands and weekend travel plans across Allegheny County. Drivers should expect slick pavement, especially on shaded bends along I-79 and the Parkway West.
According to the National Weather Service Pittsburgh office, a moist system creeps east today, bringing periods of rain and a few isolated thunderstorms by afternoon. Forecasters note a non-zero risk for strong wind gusts inside heavier cells, though widespread severe weather is unlikely. Residents should secure loose outdoor items and leave extra distance during afternoon travel when visibility may briefly drop.
Sunday delivers a mix of clouds and brisk breezes. According to meteorologists, highs land near the upper 40s while west winds push 20 mph with higher gusts. Light rain may linger early, but most of the region trends drier by midday. Leaves and debris may blow across bridges and ramps, so drivers should stay alert, especially along the Monongahela Valley.
Monday brings a cooler, calmer setup. According to NWS guidance, highs reach the mid-40s under mostly sunny skies. The air feels crisp but manageable. Still, the broader pattern shows subtle early-season signals, with models hinting at a Winter Tease later in the week—potentially aligning with rising Thanksgiving travel volumes across western Pennsylvania and northern West Virginia. A warm-to-cold shift behind Tuesday’s rain could support a limited snow chance in the higher ridges if moisture lingers.
Tuesday turns wetter again as another system approaches. After all, November often saves its bigger swings for the days just ahead of major travel windows.
