Low temperatures expected tonight - September 1, 2024 KDKA Weather Center
Labor Day will feature some fair weather clouds, but comfortable conditions as highs will only reach the lower to middle 70s. Tuesday will be the coolest morning of the upcoming week as skies completely clear out and winds become light underneath a surface of high pressure.
A gradual warming trend is expected from Wednesday through Friday once the high-pressure system moves to our east and a return flow out of the south to southeast establishes itself across our region. By Friday into Saturday, our next storm system will drop in from the west/northwest bringing the next chance for showers and thunderstorms to our region along with another cooldown.
Depending on how amplified this system digs into our region will determine how much rain and thunderstorm activity occurs. Some models have a much more "amped" up system that would move slower across Western Pennsylvania and northern West Virginia which would result in more rainfall, while other models bring the system through a little faster and weaker with less rain.
Details will be ironed out in future forecasts this upcoming week.
