Further southwest, there's a "Slight Risk" for severe weather, which is a 2 out of 5, meaning an isolated tornado can't be ruled out.
Power outages are also possible with damaging wind gusts near 60 mph and even quarter-sized hail.
It's going to be a wet and windy Pittsburgh Marathon with the chance of lightning, so plan accordingly.
By Monday, things will calm down and we are in the upper 60s with sunshine. Temperatures in the 70s are back Tuesday, but so is the chance for showers mid-week.
