It will be cooler but still seasonable this afternoon with highs in the mid-50s. Winds will stay up a bit, but should turn much calmer by this evening.
Temperatures have dipped closer to freezing on Sunday morning, thanks to calm winds and thin clouds overhead.
Hold on to your hats! Wind gusts are picking up and will peak this afternoon around 35mph for much of the area. Winds will be even stronger over the mountains and could be as high as 45 or 50mph.
Keep the rain gear handy this afternoon as more steady rain lifts in from the south. A little thunder can’t be ruled out, but would be most likely over counties north and east of Pittsburgh.
Winds will become a little stronger tonight as the next storm system lifts out of the south, but it’s just an appetizer for what is to come.
Beautiful weather is expected to continue on Monday and Tuesday with slightly breezier conditions.
A frost or freeze remains possible on Saturday morning, mainly south of Pittsburgh, where skies have been clear longer.
Seven Springs got snow! A lake effect band dropped a quick coating over the highest elevations this morning. While certainly earlier than some would want, it is actually common to see flakes over the mountains by the end of October.
Another unseasonably chilly afternoon is in store as highs struggle to get out of the 40s. Spotty showers remain possible but should wrap up this evening as high pressure builds.
