Pittsburgh, PA – After a dry and chilly start to the weekend, the Pittsburgh area is set to see significant weather changes, including rain Sunday night and the possibility of snow midweek.
The National Weather Service (NWS) is forecasting a cold but dry Saturday, with temperatures reaching a high of 36 degrees. Gusty winds, with speeds of up to 30 mph, will create brisk conditions throughout the day. Residents heading outdoors are encouraged to dress warmly and prepare for wind chills that could make it feel much colder.
Sunday will bring a brief reprieve from the cold, with highs climbing to around 47 degrees under mostly sunny skies. However, a rain system is expected to arrive late Sunday night, continuing into Monday morning. Drivers should be cautious during the morning commute as wet roads could cause delays.
By Wednesday, a sharp drop in temperatures could lead to a mix of rain and snow, potentially causing slick conditions on area roads. While accumulation amounts remain uncertain, forecasters are monitoring the potential for hazardous travel during midweek.
The extended forecast indicates a pattern of fluctuating temperatures, with highs reaching the low 50s on Tuesday before falling back into the upper 30s by Wednesday. Residents are advised to stay updated on midweek forecasts and prepare for potentially changing travel conditions.
As Pittsburgh transitions into a week of shifting weather, now is the time to check your vehicle’s tires, windshield wipers, and emergency kits. Plan ahead for rain-soaked roads early in the week and monitor updates for snow impacts by midweek.
