PENNSYLVANIA — A steady band of early winter snow is pushing east across western Pennsylvania this morning, coating roads, cars, and trees in a crisp 1–3 inches. The National Weather Service in Pittsburgh reports the back edge of the storm now approaching the WV/PA border, with most accumulation expected to end by 11 a.m.
Radar shows lingering light snow and a wintry mix trailing behind the main system. Drivers from eastern Ohio through the Pittsburgh metro are urged to use caution, as roads remain slushy to slick, especially on bridges and untreated surfaces. Crews are working to clear main routes, but freezing rain and light snow may still cause brief travel disruptions through late morning.
By midday, drier air will move in from the west, allowing clouds to break and temperatures to hover in the low 30s. However, forecasters warn that refreezing could occur later tonight as skies clear and readings drop into the 20s, creating black ice hazards for the Wednesday morning commute.
Snowfall totals of 1–3 inches have been reported widely across the region, with slightly higher amounts possible along the Laurel Highlands. This marks one of the first notable early December snows of the season, signaling winter’s firm arrival across the Appalachian corridor.
