Be ready for fast changes heading right through the weekend.
Rain showers will exit the area by mid to late morning as colder air pours into the region. Temperatures will drop from the mid-40s to the mid-30s by late afternoon. A few snow showers will develop later today and last into tonight. While the snow showers will be scattered, a dusting is possible in a few areas.
It will be a cold but dry Friday. Unfortunately, the break doesn’t last long.
A weekend system will spread snow into the area early Saturday, and a few inches of snow is possible north of Pittsburgh before warmer air changes the snow to moderate to heavy rain. On and off rain will continue into Sunday morning with some areas seeing up to 2 inches of rain. Stream, creek and river flooding will become a concern south of Pittsburgh heading into Saturday night and Sunday. Much colder air will turn the rain back to on and off snow showers late in the day Sunday. Wind chills by Monday morning will be down near zero in parts of the area.
Severe Weather Team 11 will be honing in on the exact locations expected to be impacted in the coming days.
