Pittsburgh: Feeling like September to end the week

Seasonably cool temperatures and low humidity go along with sunshine.

Jill SzwedPITTSBURGH —

The National Weather Survey completed damage surveys and confirmed three brief, EF-0 tornadoes in Butler and Lawrence counties. The forecast for western Pennsylvania will be much quieter and more comfortable through late week.

Clear, calm and cool night

The lingering late-day clouds will dwindle this evening and tonight. The calm and dry conditions will send temperatures into the low and mid 50s. You can sleep with the windows open thanks to the fresh air and no issues from wildfire smoke. Patchy fog will form ahead of sunrise, especially in our river valleys.

From patchy fog to sunshine tomorrow with low humidity and very comfortable temperatures.

We are taking a break from the high heat and humidity along with unsettled conditions for a few days. Sunshine will rule our skies with temperatures taking a trip back to the 70s. This is more typical for September around western PA, especially with the very comfortable humidity levels.
