Pittsburgh: Warmer with pop-up showers Sunday

A “typical” summer’s day ahead of big heat and humidity.

Well, Jill, *** lot going on with the weather. The downpours when they came, they came hard, right? And they’re very small, very teeny tiny and localized, but right, they have meant business we’ve gone through this afternoon. We could see another batch coming in as we work through the day tomorrow, although the coverage looks to be *** little bit more sporadic as we wind down this final weekend of June. In the meantime, we’re focused on the drying out trend as we go through this evening. Some areas of fog will form by daybreak tomorrow. Let’s look at future casting work through your Sunday Morning hours are going to be just fine. It will be. Noon that you can see *** few of those showers and even very rogue thunderstorms bubbling up. Action should fade as we approach 67 o’clock in the evening. But again, just something to be mindful of as you are out and about enjoying the weekend. Next big story though, it’s gonna be all about the heat and high humidity next week. Already we have 4 impact days in *** row, as you can see high temperatures well into the 90s. Some air you can wear will make it feel like the triple digits and that really is just the beginning of an extended stretch of heat as we. Into the early days of July, let’s check out the radar right now. Just south of Monroeville, we are seeing *** decent little shower that’s pulling past Pitcairn. Meanwhile for North Huntington, getting closer to Jeannette Greensburg. Also, as you look over towards Unity Township, skies have opened up. You’ve seen some of that steady rain for the past several minutes, and these are some slow moving downpours, especially across Westmoreland County as we’re working through this evening. But overall things are slow to move because we have *** stationary boundary that is going to be sinking southward as it goes through this evening. Things will dry out as you lose some daylight. And then on the flip side, we watch some areas of fog form towards daybreak tomorrow, 83 for your Sunday with an outside chance of *** shower or thunderstorm. Then things start to heat up on Monday, our four impact days in *** row starting on Tuesday, we more than likely will need to upgrade *** day or two depending on how toasty those temperatures get and maybe even extend our impact days into your Fourth of July weekend and your 4 day plus 4 more. Tomorrow temperatures landing around. 80 in most neighborhoods it is going to feel sticky with those shower and storm chances through the afternoon and again our heat wave kicks off on Tuesday, an extended stretch of impact days, potentially your 1st 90 degree day of the year with that air you can wear feels like temperatures will be in the triple digits and will continue to swelter through the 4th of July. It’s not just during the day, it’s also at night. Check out those low temperatures, only low to mid 70s, so not much relief, and Mother Nature could provide some fireworks of her own with storm chances starting on Friday.
