Western PA: Trending drier this weekend<\/p>\n

The unsettled pattern may relax, but more rain is on the way next week.<\/p>\n

Western Pennsylvania will catch a break from repetitive downpours this weekend. An area of rain with embedded heavy rain and storms will cross before 9 a.m. More dry hours are in our future, for now. Impact Days have been hoisted for Monday and Tuesday.<\/p>\n
