Pittsburgh looking at a drier and milder day ahead of freezing rain on Sunday
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - After a sunny Saturday, clouds move in tonight along with moisture by early to mid-morning Sunday.
Climate: Average High: 41 | Average Low: 27
First Alert: Sunday Morning (Freezing Rain I-80/Laurel Highlands)
Aware: Active weather pattern this week with several shower chances after freezing rain early Sunday.
The question is whether rain arrives in some spots before the temperature can get above the freezing mark. If not, we're looking at a chance of freezing rain and even a quick shot of some snow to freezing rain changing to rain eventually. The most likely spots are north near I-80 and in the Ridges where a winter weather advisory is in place.
Somerset and Garrett counties are under a winter storm warning for more icing potential. Chances for freezing rain in the lower elevations and urban areas are relatively low, but still be on the lookout for some slippery spots on roads, bridges, and overpasses until late Sunday morning. After that, it's rain the rest of the day and warmer air Monday into the lower 50s.
Colder air returns late next week with a rain/snow chance to end the workweek and colder air next weekend.
