Pennsylvania – A gray, damp start is gripping Pittsburgh this morning, where misty rain and low clouds are coating roads and slowing traffic across Allegheny County. Visibility has dropped to around 4 miles at times, and temperatures near 44°F are keeping pavement slick on major routes like I-376 and I-79.
According to the National Weather Service in Pittsburgh, showers will linger through the morning with precipitation chances near 70%, gradually easing as the day progresses. No severe weather is expected, but patchy fog and steady moisture will continue to impact visibility and braking distances through midday.
Drivers across Pittsburgh, Monroeville, and Washington should expect slower commutes, especially on bridges and elevated roadways where moisture accumulates first. Plan extra time and keep headlights on in low visibility. Conditions may briefly improve later today, but another round of light showers could redevelop into the evening hours.
A bigger shift arrives early in the week. Monday brings partial clearing with highs near 48°F, but colder air quickly settles in by night. Temperatures are expected to fall to around 28°F, creating a risk for flash freezing on untreated roads and bridges by early Tuesday. Even minor standing water could turn icy.
By Tuesday afternoon, sunshine returns with highs near 66°F, marking a sharp rebound. Warmer air continues midweek, with Wednesday reaching near 72°F before another round of scattered showers develops.
