KDKA-TV Evening Forecast (5/12)

Added: 2026-05-13

[00:00:00]talked about how chilly it was last night and it was I'm going to say cold, nice chilly. Uh but it's really turned into a beautiful day. Zone of perfection is not to be taken for granted. It can be very fleeting.

[00:00:11]>> Oh, it can be and it will fleet. Um >> but we we're in it now as we speak.

[00:00:15]>> Soak this in cuz tomorrow we have rain, we have thunderstorms. Thursday it's going to be chilly. Friday I think we're going to try to get back into the zop.

[00:00:24]But you can see what we're dealing with here. showers start to approach by the time we're getting towards 4:00 a.m. So, even before the sun pops up tomorrow, we have the first wave of rain getting its act together and moving through town.

[00:00:37]This is going to last through the morning and then we head towards the afternoon. And once we get to about 100 p.m., maybe a spotty shower ahead of the main line, but this main line is going to start approaching spots like Newcastle and Wheeling before pushing through Pittsburgh. And you can see it does pick up some intensity from Pittsburgh and eastward as you get into Indiana as you get into spots like Latroe down into Uniontown and Morgantown. So this is where we could run the risk of a gusty embedded thunderstorm within this line. The threat looks low right now. More of an isolated setup for that, but we have a couple of the ingredients trying to line up. So, it's something we're going to watch for you tomorrow as this line is developing through the early part of the afternoon into the early part of the evening before that clears. Then some cooler air is going to break loose again and we are going to get back into a chilly day for Thursday when that cold air is coming across those relatively warmer Great Lakes. You get these spotty showers. I would not even rule out some of the grapple some of that little hail that likes to come with some of the showers associated with that colder air draining in here for Thursday. But, uh, after we get into Thursday afternoon, we'll start to dry it up. We'll chip away at those clouds Thursday night into early Friday. And this is going to leave us with a cold start to Friday. Now, most of the temperatures are expected to float around in the lower 40s, but some outlying areas might see an isolated patch of frost. Uh not totally convinced that that's going to be the case just yet, but something I'm watching for and stay tuned on that one as we get more information coming in about how the temperatures are going to line up. We'll definitely pass that on to you. Lower 80s for the weekend to mid80s. Isolated thunderstorms, meaning most of the time it's going to be just fine, but you might see a quick little popup. I call these halfhour showers. You should get, if you get one, should get right back into business before you know it. But we see those fluctuating temperatures over the coming uh days. And then Friday after that cold start, we warm it up to 70. Still pretty close to average. And then it's very warm temperatures for the weekend and especially early next week when we start to look at those temperatures closer to 90. Tonight, not too bad temperature- wise. 55. So we're well above freezing. your plants are going to be just fine and they'll get a little drink late tonight and early tomorrow morning and then tomorrow with some rain and some thunder around they'll get a little more of that beneficial water temperatures. They do stay chilly on Thursday but bounce right back in several days especially the weekend and next week come with temperatures in the 80s. I thanks.
