by Pittsburgh, PA – A warming trend is set to impact western Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio, and northern West Virginia, with temperatures rising steadily each day through Friday. Residents can expect progressively milder days and nights until a shift in weather brings rain later in the week.
The National Weather Service in Pittsburgh reports that from Wednesday morning through Friday evening, both daytime highs and overnight lows will increase daily. This pattern affects major cities including Pittsburgh, Wheeling, Morgantown, New Philadelphia, Zanesville, and Du Bois.
Steady Rise in Temperatures Across the Region
Midweek temperatures will be cooler, with highs in the mid-40s to near 50 degrees on Wednesday. By Thursday, many locations will reach the lower 50s, while Friday marks a more significant warming with temperatures climbing to the mid-50s in several areas.
- Wednesday highs: mid-40s to near 50°F
- Thursday highs: lower 50s
- Friday highs: mid-50s
- Overnight lows rise from mid-30s on Wednesday to upper 30s and low 40s by Friday
As overnight lows rise, the risk of frost diminishes, offering relief for early spring gardening and outdoor activities.
Dry Weather Dominates Until the Weekend
Forecasters indicate dry conditions will prevail through Thursday night, maintaining a pleasant atmosphere before rain enters the forecast. A frontal system approaching from the west is expected to bring widespread showers starting Friday, although exact rainfall amounts remain uncertain.
“We expect temperatures to level off or slightly cool heading into the weekend after the rains arrive,” said a National Weather Service spokesperson.
