MIGHT BE OKAY AS FAR AS THE RAIN, RIGHT? YEAH. IT DOES LOOK LIKE THE EARLIER, THE BETTER THE LATER WE GET IN THE SUN, THE MORE LIKELY YOU’RE GOING TO RUN INTO A RAIN SHOWER. SO IF YOU’RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHEN TO GO WITH MOM AGAIN, THE EARLIER, MAYBE THE BETTER PLAN FOR YOU. ISOLATED SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE TOMORROW. WATCHING SATURDAY MORNING. THAT’S REALLY THE WASHOUT OF THIS STRETCH. AND THAT PROMPTS AN IMPACT DAY FOR SATURDAY. AND AGAIN, THOSE SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL BE WITH US AS WE HEAD INTO MOTHER’S DAY. TONIGHT. WE HAVE ANOTHER FROST ADVISORY, THE SAME THREE COUNTIES FROM LAST NIGHT FOR US. VENANGO AND CLARION ARE UNDER FROST ADVISORY ALONG WITH ALL OF INDIANA COUNTY AND THEN THE LAUREL HIGHLANDS THROUGH WESTMORELAND, FAYETTE, MONONGALIA, PRESTON AND GARRETT COUNTIES. THIS GOES UNTIL 8:00 TOMORROW MORNING. SO IF YOU HAVE ANY SENSE OF PLANTS OUTSIDE, YOU WANT TO PROTECT THOSE OR BRING THOSE IN SO THEY CAN SURVIVE THE NIGHT, WE MAY HAVE ONE MORE FROST CONCERN FOR US AS WE HEAD INTO NEXT WEEK. WE’RE STARTING AT 42, EXCEPT FOR THOSE OUTSIDE OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY AND ESPECIALLY IN THE FROST ADVISORY, THE MIDDLE 30S ARE LIKELY WILL CLIMB TO 63 TOMORROW, 68 ON SATURDAY. THE RAIN IN THE MORNING, SHOWERS IN THE SECOND PART OF YOUR SUNDAY AT 69. THAT DROPS US BACK TO 60 ON MONDAY, 62 ON TUESDAY. THERE MAY BE ANOTHER FROST CONCERN TUESDAY MORNING, AS WE’LL START AT 38 AND THEN TEMPERATURES START WARMING FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK 63 ON WEDNESDAY WITH RAIN SHOWERS 65 THURSDAY 70. BY THE TIME WE GET TO NEXT FRIDAY, THAT’S THE ONLY 70 DEGREE DAY WE HAVE. THAT’S WHAT WE’RE SUPPOSED TO BE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. SO SHOWERS HAVE BEEN VERY DIFFICULT IN GETTING DEVELOPED SO FAR TODAY. SO LIKELY NOT WORRIED ABOUT A RAIN SHOWER THIS EVENING AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW MORNING. MAYBE AN EARLY PASSING SHOWER. OTHERWISE PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY, THEN AN ISOLATED SHOWER. CHANCE ROLLS IN LATE IN THE DAY. THEY WILL BE VERY FEW AND FAR BETWEEN, BUT A SHOWER COULD DEVELOP. IT’S AS WE GET TO IN PAST SUNSET ON FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. THAT’S WHEN WIDESPREAD RAIN DEVELOPS ACROSS WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA. THAT’S WHAT PROMPTS THE IMPACT DAY. THOSE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS WILL LAST UNTIL WE GET TO ABOUT LUNCHTIME, AND THEN RAIN EXITS AND SKIES CLEAR AS WE HEAD INTO THE BACK PART OF YOUR SATURDAY BEFORE WE WATCH A COLD FRONT ARRIVING AS WE HEAD INTO YOUR SUNDAY THAT PROMPTS THE RAIN SHOWERS AS WE HEAD INTO YOUR SUNDAY AFTERNOON. SO BY THE TIME WE’RE DONE, WE COULD SEE A QUICK HALF AN INCH, PERHAPS UP TO AN INCH OF RAIN ACROSS WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA FROM THAT RAIN JUST ON SATURDAY, MOSTLY IN THE MORNING. SO IF YOU’RE MAKING PLANS WITH MOM EARLY, YOU’RE FINE. 54 A
