Pittsburgh Weather: Stretch Of Beautiful Weather Coming To An End, Rain And Storms Moving Back In

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- Warmer air is rushing in behind an overnight warm front.

The chance for an isolated shower is extremely small today with us sufficiently capped with a layer of stable air in place. High temperatures will hit the mid- to upper-80s today.

KDKA Meteorologist Ron Smiley says Pittsburgh's high temperature will hit 87 degrees today with partly cloudy skies. We should be dry start to finish.

But changes begin as soon as tonight as a cold front nears the area. The front will stall and set up north-south.

The front will act as a trigger both Tuesday and Wednesday for scattered rain and storms. Downpours will be possible with slow-moving storms possibly causing flash flooding.

Most places two-day rain totals will be a relatively modest half inch to full inch, but there will be spots that see significantly more rain.

Highs both on Tuesday and Wednesday will be close to 80 degrees and highs will be determined due to the amount of rain we receive. Thursday looks dry with scattered rain showers expected Friday and isolated showers expected on Saturday.
