PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - Canadian wildfire smoke returns as the upper low that has brought us the rain over the past couple of days drift to the east.

This means our rain chances will be very low today as we begin the transition to clear skies starting tomorrow. Skies will remain cloudy. Highs should hit the upper 70s with a morning low near 60.

I have noon temperatures right at 70°.
