Sunny, Stable Weekend Forecast for Pittsburgh with Minor Shower Risks Eastward
Pittsburgh residents, prepare for a weekend with predominantly sunny skies and mild summer temperatures. According to the National Weather Service Pittsburgh, the city is set to experience a comfortable weekend marked by dry conditions, save for a possibility of scattered showers and thunderstorms south and east of the city on Saturday.
The forecast promises mainly dry and less humid weather today, with dew points remaining in the comfortable 50s - a welcome change after possible showers earlier in the week. While today's weather remains stable, a slight chance of afternoon showers in the higher terrain area of Tucker County, West Virginia, persists due to diurnal instability but the likelihood is admittedly on the low end.
As the weekend warms up, high pressure is expected to sustain the dry weather through Sunday night. "Surface high pressure builds further across the Upper Ohio Valley region," leading into Saturday, where the only notable disturbance may be the aforementioned scattered showers and thunderstorms, primarily relegated to areas south and east of Pittsburgh. Rainfall amounts, if any, are predicted to be modest, according to the National Weather Service.
Looking toward next week, Pittsburghers are advised to carry their umbrellas as the periodic shower and thunderstorm chances increase through the week with Wednesday and Thursday anticipated to host the most significant rainfall. These conditions are linked to a lite trough that is expected to develop over the Central United States, gradually shifting eastward. Along with the rain comes an uptick in temperatures, which is anticipated to rise above the season's average and bring increased humidity, to the region.
In terms of air travel, widespread VFR and light winds are on the docket, providing favorable conditions for flights through the weekend. Operators should expect clear skies after a brief encounter with morning fog along the river, easing into a smooth aviation forecast ahead.
