Western PA: Dry and pleasant final week of August
The only rain chance this week is Thursday, and what falls will be light and isolated.
PITTSBURGH —
We are finally catching a break from the rain! Cooler temperatures are also settling in to close out August.
Seasonably cool finish to August
Let Mother Nature take care of the climate control this week. High temperatures will close to 70 degrees this afternoon, which is more typical for late September as opposed to late August. Another very comfortable night is in store with lows in the mid 50s. Readings will gradually moderate through the week.
Rain Chances Return Thursday
The only rain chance through the end of the month is Thursday. The coverage and rain total are not that impressive in the isolated to scattered range. The best time to catch a shower looks to be during the second half of the day.
Dry and mild this weekend
Why not look ahead to the weekend with a quiet forecast in our future. Friday night looks fantastic for the kickoff to the high school football season. Dry and mild conditions continue throughout the upcoming weekend.
