I have both days seeing a high of 60 degrees right now.\u00a0 Even if we don&#8217;t quite get there, it will be close.<\/p>\n<p>The rest of the week is also looking warm but not THAT warm. I have highs hitting the mid 40s today, with morning fog and cloud cover being the main reason for us not hitting the 50s today. I have us in the 50s on Tuesday with mostly cloudy skies.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1771241233_457_temp-2-720.png#.png\" alt=\"temp-2-720.png \" height=\"349\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\"  loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                KDKA Weather Center<\/p>\n<p>The warm front arrives on Wednesday morning and brings the chance for rain our way. While most of the rest of the day is looking dry, data continues to hint at a brief line of storms being possible.\u00a0 The timing of this quick burst of rain right now looks to be a little early, happening before noon. If the rain arrives in the afternoon, as I think is likely, we will see our rain and storm chances increase. Wednesday&#8217;s rain wraps up early on Thursday, with most of the rest of Thursday looking dry.\u00a0 More rain, including storms, is expected early on Friday.\u00a0 Friday&#8217;s rain totals are expected to be more than a half inch put probably not more than an inch.\u00a0 There also appears to be at least a chance for storms, with some lightning and gusty winds possible.<\/p>\n<p>      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1771241233_704_temp-1-720.png#.png\" alt=\"temp-1-720.png \" height=\"349\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\"  loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                KDKA Weather Center<\/p>\n<p>Right now, when it comes to Friday&#8217;s rain chance, model data is all over the place with little consistency run to run and model to model. As you&#8217;d expect, Saturday to Sunday&#8217;s rain and snow chance is all over the place, with every run showing something different.\u00a0 A couple of things are consistent though.\u00a0 We are going to see another surge in cold Arctic air on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday of next week. Looking VERY cold. We will also likely see some type of precipitation, but I am not confident right now on how much of this will be snow and how much will be just rain. Right now, I have temperatures in the mid-30s for most of the day on Sunday, and everything is showing that we are going to be close to the rain-snow line.\u00a0 We are watching it.<\/p>\n<p>WEATHER LINKS:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/pittsburgh\/weather\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\" target=\"_blank\">Current Conditions<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/pittsburgh\/school-closings\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\" target=\"_blank\">School Closings &amp; Delays<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/pittsburgh\/upload-your-photos\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\" target=\"_blank\">Submit Your Weather Photos<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"content__tags__label\">In:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pittsburgh-area skies will remain cloudy today after the morning fog burns off and there&#8217;s a chance temperatures today&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":115148,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[7554,73,75,74,914,913],"class_list":{"0":"post-115147","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-pittsburgh","8":"tag-first-alert-weather","9":"tag-pittsburgh","10":"tag-pittsburgh-headlines","11":"tag-pittsburgh-news","12":"tag-weather-blogs","13":"tag-weather-forecast"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115147","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=115147"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115147\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/115148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=115147"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=115147"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=115147"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
