Saturday is a Severe Weather Alert Day in Pittsburgh (2024)

ACROSS A GOOD PART OF THE AREA. WE ARE NOW WINDING DOWN THE SEVERE THREAT THOUGH. THAT’S THE GOOD NEWS. STILL ONE ACTIVE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING THAT IS IN GREENE COUNTY. AN ACTIVE FLASH FLOOD WARNING. THAT’S FOR PARTS OF ALLEGHENY, ARMSTRONG, INDIANA AND WESTMORELAND COUNTIES. WE ARE STILL WATCHING SHOWERS AND STORMS NORTHWEST OF THE CITY AS WELL, BUT THOSE ARE NOT AS IMPRESSIVE AS WHAT WE SAW EARLIER. SO AGAIN, WE ARE WINDING DOWN THE SEVERE THREAT. BUT SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL LAST A LITTLE WHILE LONGER. SO AGAIN, ONE ACTIVE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING HERE IN GREENE COUNTY. THIS GOES UNTIL 7:00 IN ECLIPSE FOR OUR WESTERN PORTIONS OF FAYETTE COUNTY. SO FROM MASON TOWN BACK THROUGH WAYNESBURG, A LOT OF LIGHTNING ASSOCIATED WITH THIS MAIN THREAT DAMAGING WIND GUSTS UP TO ABOUT 60MPH. AND HAIL UP TO ABOUT QUARTER SIZE. SO BE AWARE OF THAT. AND AGAIN, THESE STORMS WILL CONTINUE SOUTH AND EAST AND WILL BEGIN FIZZLING OUT AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE NEXT ABOUT HOUR AND A HALF, TWO HOURS OR SO. AND THEN WE SHOULD SEE A MAINLY QUIET OVERNIGHT HOURS TONIGHT. TOMORROW MORNING THOUGH, OUT EARLY ESPECIALLY, WE’LL WATCH FOR A FEW AREAS OF DENSE FOG POSSIBLE. JUST ABOUT ALL OF US HAVE SEEN RAIN AT THIS POINT AND FOG WILL BE POSSIBLE. SO IF YOU’RE OUT EARLY, JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND. TEMPERATURES SHOULD SKYROCKET THROUGH THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 80S THROUGH THE DAY TOMORROW. WE ARE DRY DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS, BUT AS WE GET TO AND PAST SUNSET, WE’LL WATCH FOR A BAND OF SHOWERS, PERHAPS A RUMBLE OR TWO, A THUNDER LIFT NORTHWARD THAT’S TIED TO A WARM FRONT AHEAD OF OUR SYSTEM THAT GETS HERE FOR MEMORIAL DAY. WE’LL BE WATCHING PERIODS OF RAIN ON MONDAY. IT’S NOT A WASHOUT, BUT ESPECIALLY IN THE AFTERNOON. WE MAY HAVE TO WATCH FOR A COUPLE MORE THUNDERSTORMS POPPING. SO BECAUSE OF THAT, MONDAY IS NOW A SEVERE WEATHER ALERT DAY. AND THEN WE’LL WATCH FOR REALLY AN ISOLATED SHOWER CHANCE INTO OUR TUESDAY AS WELL. BUT WIDESPREAD RAIN IS LIKELY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO OUR MONDAY. HERE’S LIVE LOOK ON ACTION CAM RAIN ARRIVING FROM THE WEST HERE, AND YOU CAN SEE THE RAINDROPS ON THE CAMERA LENS 67 AT THE AIRPORT. THAT IS OBVIOUSLY RAIN COOLED AND TEMPERATURES WILL HOLD PRETTY STEADY NOW THROUGH THE REST OF THE EVENING HOURS 7086 FOR US TOMORROW. SHOWERS LATE 77 ON YOUR MEMORIAL DAY, MONDAY. AGAIN, IT IS A SEVERE WEATHER ALERT DAY. SHOWERS LINGER THROUGH WEDNESDAY. HIGHS TO WHERE WE ARE NOW FOR A TEMPERATURE OF 68. WEDNESDAY. WE DRY OUT ON THURSDAY, THEN START WARMING AGAIN, BUT WE LOOK TO
