<\/p>\nWeather leads to dozens of school delays in Western Pennsylvania on Tuesday<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tASHLEY. SO SAD WE WON\u2019T GET TO SEE IT. WHAT AN EXCITING THING THAT IS TO TO SEE. BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE GOT AN IMPACT DAY WITH LOW VISIBILITY. WE ALSO HAVE SOME ISOLATED FREEZING RAIN AND RAIN SHOWERS, SO ELEVATED SURFACES, BRIDGES AND OVERPASSES COULD BE A LITTLE TRICKY FOR THE MORNING COMMUTE. AND THAT HEAVY RAIN IS COMING IN FOR THE EVENING DRIVE, AND IT\u2019S GOING TO START AS EARLY AS KIDS ARE COMING HOME FROM SCHOOL. RIGHT NOW, OUR TEMPERATURES ARE SITTING NEAR THE FREEZING MARK OF 32 DEGREES IN PITTSBURGH. CRANBERRY AND BUTLER, 33, MONROEVILLE 34. WASHINGTON. WAYNESBURG. SO A LITTLE BIT WARMER THE FURTHER SOUTH. AND THAT\u2019S WHERE WE\u2019RE NOTICING THE TEMPERATURES A LITTLE BIT WARMER. THE GROUND TEMPERATURE STILL ON THE COLDER SIDE ABOUT 28 TO 33 DEGREES. AND THAT\u2019S INCLUDING NORTHERN PORTIONS OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY. SO INTO THE WEXFORD PINE TOWNSHIP AREA, EVEN CLIPPING NEAR HAMPTON ALONG ROUTE EIGHT. YOU MAY NOTICE AGAIN THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME OF THAT FREEZING RAIN. VERY LIGHT, BUT VERY ISOLATED, STILL COULD PACK A PUNCH. IF YOU ARE HEADING OUT THE DOOR THIS MORNING, WE ARE SEEING A LITTLE BIT OF THAT MIXING IN INTO NORTHERN PORTIONS OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY ALONG 79 TO 79. THE TURNPIKE AGAIN. ROUTE EIGHT EVEN NEAR 28. BUTLER, SEEING A FEW SNOWFLAKES FLYING AROUND IT, IS COLDER NORTH OF 422. AND THEN WE\u2019RE STARTING TO SEE SOME OF THAT WARMER AIR SURGE INTO ARMSTRONG, INDIANA. LAWRENCE AND BEAVER COUNTY. STILL SOME LIGHT RAIN INTO THE CITY OF WASHINGTON EXTENDS DOWN INTO WAYNESBURG AND UNIONTOWN. WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR COUNTIES WHO HAVE THE BETTER POTENTIAL TO SEE THE FREEZING RAIN NORTH AND EAST OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY, THAT WILL REMAIN IN PLACE UNTIL 10 A.M. SO LET\u2019S TIME IT ALL OUT HERE. WE ARE GOING TO WARM UP AFTER 10:00. WE\u2019LL ALL SEE SOME VERY LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS. 11 12:00 A BIT OF A BREAK FOR SOME OF US FROM THE RAIN. IT IS SHORT LIVED. BY 2:00 3:00 INTO THE AFTERNOON AGAIN AS KIDS ARE COMING HOME FROM SCHOOL. AS YOU\u2019RE GETTING READY TO HEAD HOME FROM WORK, THIS IS WHEN WE WILL HAVE THE HEAVIEST OF RAINFALL MOVING THROUGH THE REGION. IT\u2019S GOING TO SLOWLY TAPER OFF AFTER 8:00 9:00 TONIGHT. WE\u2019LL STILL HAVE SOME OF THAT HEAVY RAIN SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 70 INTO THE OVERNIGHT AND EARLY WEDNESDAY. WEDNESDAY, THOUGH, DOESN\u2019T LOOK TOO BAD FOR A LOT OF US. SOME DRIER TIMES THROUGH THE DAY. STILL COULD SEE SOME OF THOSE SHOWERS EARLY IN THE MORNING SOUTH OF I-70. AND THEN LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT AFTER 10:00 AND INTO THURSDAY, WE\u2019LL HAVE ANOTHER ROUND OF HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL FOR SOME THUNDERSTORMS AS WELL. WE ARE WARMING UP VERY SPRING LIKE UPPER 60S LOW TO MID 70S HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND AND NEXT WEEK WITH RAIN CHANCES HEADING INTO THE START OF NEXT WEEK, IT\u2019S GOING TO BE VERY SOGGY OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE VISIBILITY IS GOING TO BE AN ISSUE THROUGH THE MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING EXTENDING INTO TOMORROW. WE\u2019RE ALREADY SEEING DOWN ABOUT 3 TO 4 MILE VISIBILITY IN MOST SPOTS, SO OVERALL WE ARE GOING TO SEE A LITTLE BREAK AROUND LUNCHTIME AND THEN THE HEAVIEST OF RAIN COMING IN WILL WARM UP INTO THE 50S. BUT THE RAIN UNFORTUNATELY WILL PLAGUE THE AREA AS WE CONTINUE THROUGH THE WEEK AND EXTENDING INTO OUR WEEKEND. NOW, TOMORROW DOES LOOK LIKE ONE OF THE BETTER DAYS. SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS EARLY SOUTH OF I-70, BUT THROUGH THE DAY IT LOOKS TO STAY DRY. THEN LATE NIGHT WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY RAIN. WE WILL HAVE SOME ISOLATED STORMS TRYING TO DEVELOP SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDE\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
