Winter Weather Alert Issued For Pittsburgh Area

PITTSBURGH, PA — The National Weather Service says the potential for isolated snow squalls and bands will increase later this evening and are possible until 11 p.m.

While accumulations will generally be less than one half inch, quick bursts of snow will lead to reductions in visibility and slick conditions at times.

In addition, quickly falling temperatures will lead to the development of slick spots on some surfaces. Also, wind gusts of up to 40 mph are possible.

Expect sharply colder weather tomorrow, with high temperatures only in the upper 20s and wind gusts as high as 31 mph.
