May 26 Forecast: Rain Wednesday morning then sunny in Western PA

[00:00:00]THAT IS GOING TO BE AMAZING.

[00:00:02]YOU SAY EVEN NOT EVERYONE’S GOING TO SEE THE RAIN TOMORROW.

[00:00:06]YEAH, IT’S VERY LOCATION DEPENDENT TOMORROW.

[00:00:08]THE BEST CHANCE TO SEE RAIN.

[00:00:09]THE BEST PLACES WILL BE IN AND SOUTH OF PITTSBURGH.

[00:00:11]THE FURTHER NORTH YOU ARE, THE MORE LIKELY YOU STAY DRY.

[00:00:14]TOMORROW WE ARE WATCHING FOR POCKETS OF HEAVY RAIN.

[00:00:17]PERHAPS AN ISOLATED RUMBLE OF THUNDER.

[00:00:18]THIS IS MOSTLY A RAIN EVENT THOUGH.

[00:00:20]STARTING AS EARLY AS ABOUT 4:00, THE HEAVIEST RAIN GETS OUT OF HERE BY NOON, AND THE BIGGEST TIME FRAME WHERE WE SEE THE HEAVIEST RAIN IS BETWEEN 8 AND 10:00 TOMORROW MORNING.

[00:00:29]MAIN CONCERN IS LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING, ESPECIALLY IN OUR SMALLER BODIES OF WATER, OUR STREAMS, CREEKS AND RUNS.

[00:00:34]BECAUSE OF THAT, A FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT TOMORROW FOR WASHINGTON, GREENE, FAYETTE, MONONGALIA, PRESTON AND GARRETT COUNTIES.

[00:00:41]THAT’S ALSO THE HIGHEST PROBABILITY OF POTENTIALLY SEEING FLASH FLOODING TOMORROW.

[00:00:44]SO THE FLOOD WATCH OVERLAPS THAT, WHERE WE COULD POTENTIALLY SEE OVER AN INCH OF RAIN IN THOSE LOCATIONS.

[00:00:49]NOT EVERYBODY WILL SEE THAT.

[00:00:51]BUT IF YOU SEE THOSE HIGHER AMOUNTS, THAT COULD CAUSE SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING PROBLEMS.

[00:00:55]AND THAT’S OUR CONCERN AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW MORNING.

[00:00:58]MOST OF US ARE FAIRLY QUIET.

[00:00:59]WE ARE WATCHING SOME SHOWERS STARTING TO CREEP NORTHWARD OUT OF WEST VIRGINIA.

[00:01:03]WE HAVE A COUPLE MORE HOURS TO GO BEFORE THEY’LL FALL APART.

[00:01:06]SO STILL AN ISOLATED, SCATTERED SHOWERS POSSIBLE SOUTH OF THE CITY FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS.

[00:01:11]TOMORROW WILL CLIMB TO 78.

[00:01:12]THAT IS ABOVE WHERE WE SHOULD BE ONCE OUR RAIN CLEARS TOMORROW, AMPLE SUNSHINE STAYS WITH US INTO AND THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

[00:01:17]IN FACT, ALL THE WAY THROUGH NEXT WEEK.

[00:01:19]LOOK AT THAT.

[00:01:21]WE’RE BETWEEN 74 AND 77 DEGREES AS WE CLOSE OUT MAY.

[00:01:24]AND AS WE START JUNE, WITH LOW TEMPERATURES HOLDING IN THE 50S, VERY SEASONAL AND VERY NICE AS ONCE WE GET PAST TOMORROW.

[00:01:29]SO IT’S TIME ALL THAT OUT FOR YOU.

[00:01:31]FUTURECAST.

[00:01:31]PICKING UP ON THOSE SHOWERS LIFTING NORTHWARD OUT OF WEST VIRGINIA.

[00:01:35]AGAIN, THOSE WILL FIZZLE OUT AFTER WE GET PAST SUNSET THIS EVENING.

[00:01:37]AND AGAIN, THE BEST COVERAGE OF THAT IS GOING TO BE IN AND SOUTH OF THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH.

[00:01:42]AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW MORNING, WE’LL WATCH POCKETS OF HEAVIER RAIN DEVELOPING AGAIN, ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF THE CITY.

[00:01:47]AND THIS IS WHAT WE’LL BE WATCHING IF HEAVY RAIN SITS OVER TOP OF THE SAME AREAS TOMORROW MORNING, THEN THAT HEAVY RAIN BEGINS EXITING.

[00:01:53]MOST OF US SHOULD DRY OUT BY THE TIME WE GET TO ABOUT NOON, WITH THOSE RAIN SHOWERS COMPLETELY CLEARING OUT AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW EVENING AND SKIES CLEARING FROM NORTH TO SOUTH AGAIN, THERE COULD BE A POCKET WHERE WE COULD SEE AN INCH OR MORE, MAINLY SOUTH OF THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH.

[00:02:06]AND THE FURTHER NORTH YOU ARE, THE MORE LIKELY YOU REMAIN DRY.

[00:02:09]FOR NOW, THOUGH, IT’S A FANTASTIC EVENING.

[00:02:11]80 IS THE CURRENT TEMPERATURE AT PITTSBURGH INTERNATIONAL.

[00:02:13]TODAY IS THE WARMEST DAY OF THE NEXT
