PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - It's been a wet start to the day with our first round of showers and storms. The rest of the afternoon will remain mostly cloudy to overcast skies with some light hit-or-miss rain showers. 

Another large round of rain moves in for Wednesday morning, and it will likely impact the morning commute. Expect widespread scattered showers and storms. There will likely be heavy downpours with gusty winds but there probably won't be anything severe for now. 

We will stay in an unstable weather pattern through at least Friday afternoon. So that means we'll continue to watch round after round of showers and storms roll through. There is the chance for flash flooding this week since heavy downpours that could drop 1 to 2 inches in less than hour are possible. 

Due to the influx of moisture, dewpoints have skyrocketed into the 70s. It's going to be extremely humid and uncomfortable with highs in the mid-80s until then.

Relief finally arrives this weekend with highs in the low to mid-80s with more comfortable humidity levels and lots of sunshine.
