Showers and storms are expected to arrive overnight tonight with rain starting just after midnight for places along I-80.

After 5 a.m. tomorrow morning, Ron Smiley says showers should roll in with decent rain chances from Allegheny County to the north.

Places south of Allegheny County will see only spotty showers during this time.

Early into Tuesday afternoon, a cold front will sweep through, bringing in a line of storms.

The strongest storms will occur along and south of I-70 where large hail is the main threat.

Tuesday highs will likely be around 80 degrees in Pittsburgh and cooler the further north you go.

Ron Smiley says pleasant weather is expected for the rest of the week with the next chance of rain coming on Thursday.
