Today: Cloudy with snow showers mixing with a bit of rain showers through the day. There is a Winter Weather Advisory in effect through 2 p.m. Tuesday for the Ridges of Fayette, Westmoreland, and Indiana counties.
Any Alert Days Ahead? One could make an argument for issuing one for overnight tonight for the Ridges.
Aware: Snow showers will be ongoing in the Laurels/Ridges through tomorrow dropping 2-4"in those areas and up to 1-2" along and north of I-80 today through Tuesday evening.
Today's going to be cloudy with light snow showers around through most of the day.
The Laurels and Ridges will have ongoing snow showers through Tuesday and could wind up with 2-4" of snow by late Tuesday with the highest elevations in Garrett, Tucker and Somerset Counties looking at up to 3-5" of snow! So far in March, Pittsburgh has measured a paltry 0.1" of snow.
We do have a Winter Weather Advisory in effect for the Ridges where anywhere from 2"-4" of snow is expected to fall overnight through tomorrow morning.
Besides that, snow showers should be a minor annoyance for most with temperatures generally sitting at or above 32°.
We could have some slick spots on roads overnight as temperatures drop to the upper 20's. Salt trucks will be out.
Besides the snow, today will see temperatures near average for the morning but well below average for the afternoon.
Highs today will hit the mid-30s. The average high for this time of the year is 48 degrees.
Morning lows will hover around 32° and our daily low won't be hit until near midnight tonight. I have Pittsburgh sitting at around 30 degrees at that point.
Looking ahead, snow showers will be the heaviest on Tuesday morning with temperatures plummeting to the mid-20s. I have Tuesday highs just around 32°.
We will be warmer on Wednesday with highs back to the low-40s. I have Thursday dry with highs in the mid-50s.
Our next precipitation chance arrives on Friday (after Tuesday's snow) with light rain pushing through Friday night into Monday morning and then turning over to light snow showers around the rest of Saturday.
