Pittsburgh, PA – Western Pennsylvania residents should prepare for scattered rain showers today and potential frost tonight as temperatures drop across the region. Showers are expected to persist through the afternoon, tapering off in the evening, but colder air settling in overnight could lead to patchy frost.

According to the National Weather Service, the greatest concern lies in the mountainous areas of West Virginia, where the first snowflakes of the season may fall. While accumulation is expected to be minimal, mostly a light coating on grassy surfaces, drivers should be cautious in elevated areas like Interstate 79, where conditions could become slick.

For Pittsburgh, a high of 52°F is forecasted today, with rain mainly between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Winds will be light, shifting from south to north by evening. The chance of showers continues tonight with temperatures dipping to a low of 40°F. Expect partly cloudy skies by Wednesday morning, though the chance for isolated showers remains around 40%.

Looking ahead, Thursday brings a welcome break with sunny skies and a high of 60°F. Frost concerns return overnight with lows near 36°F. The end of the workweek looks bright with sunshine and temperatures rising into the mid-60s by Friday, offering a pleasant weekend outlook.
