Here's how much snow different parts of the Pittsburgh area got from Monday's winter storm
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- A winter storm system moved through the Pittsburgh area on Monday, dumping several inches of snow throughout the region in the process.
Heavy snow began to blanket parts of the area early on Monday and continued to accumulate throughout the afternoon and the evening.
According to unofficial observations distributed by the National Weather Service in Pittsburgh, parts of the area received as little as 1" of snow while others received as much as 10" of snow.
The heaviest hit parts of the area were in West Virginia, where more than 10" of snow was recorded in Morgantown.
In Allegheny County, parts of the Mon Valley like the Jefferson Hills area and Glassport received more than 4" of snow. Eastern parts of the county like Monroeville and Verona received just 1" of snow.
Southern counties south of Pittsburgh received much more snow.
In Fayette County, the Uniontown area received as much as 7" of snow. Places like Smithton, Brownsville, and Perryopolis received anywhere from 4" to 6" of snow.
Snow totals in Washington County were consistently between 4" and 5" of snow from Roscoe, Charleroi, Canonsburg, and Eighty Four.
Some parts of Westmoreland County like Scottdale received more than 7" of snow.
Cold weather in the forecast this week
Chilly weather sticks around through the week with highs in the 20s all week long. The warmest day of the week right now is forecast to happen next Monday with a high of 31.
Friday will see especially cold weather in place for the morning with lows forecast to dip to single digits. There will be the potential for wind chills to drop in a spot or two below 0°.
While there will be off-and-on snow chances in place throughout the week, I am keeping a close eye on Saturday morning with a quick-moving mid-level low that blows by bringing with it the potential for decent snow totals.
This is one of those systems where snow totals may surprise some. Right now I would say to expect around 2" of snow but more will be possible in spots.
