Flash flooding will be possible today in the Pittsburgh area
Flash flooding will be possible today for parts of the Pittsburgh area. Any Alert Days Ahead? Today Will Be a First Alert Weather Day beginning at Noon due to flash flooding risk. No other days reach into the possible range just yet but plenty more rainy days are incoming with high humidity levels. This is just a fancy way of saying that I do believe we will see more flash flood weather days over the next week. Aware: Yesterday's high of 90° was the 6th 90 degree day of the year. Today is going to be a First Alert Weather Day beginning at noon due to a flash flood risk. There is ample moisture to work with, and a cold front kicking through and stalling will bring storm chances our way. Since the front is expected to align west to east, multiple fast-moving storms are expected to continue to flow over the same areas, raising the potential for flash flooding. Model data indicates ranges from anywhere from half an inch to more than an inch and a half. When talking about flash flooding, I have always bumped up the top model numbers by 150%. This means that some isolated spots could see upwards of 2.5"-3" of rain. This means low-lying areas, especially, may be impacted by quickly rising water. Flash flooding is always a tough event to forecast because it is so limited in scope, but it has such a high impact on those it does actually impact. KDKA Weather Center The highest rain chance will come from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. I do expect to see rain falling outside this window, but flash flooding and severe weather chances will be highest during this time. On top of flash flooding, we also have the chance for windstorms to fly through. Severe thunderstorms will be possible due to these fast-moving storms with wind speeds potentially topping 58mph this afternoon. It appears the tornado threat will be low today, but I want to just add that we can't completely rule out tornado chances. Looking ahead, I have rain chances in place on six of the next seven days. Sunday does stick out as another day where a First Alert may be needed. Humidity levels will be on the high side, so that means downpours will continue to be possible on any day. Let's quickly get to your forecast, with highs today hitting the upper 80s. Highs will come down to the mid to low 80s on both Tuesday and Wednesday. KDKA Weather Center Each day will see morning lows up near 70°. Highs for the rest of the week will be in the mid to upper 80s.

Texas flooding live updates: Flood threat lingers, with death toll expected to rise
The threat of flooding and heavy rains lingered in parts of Central Texas as desperate search operations continued for the missing in floods that have killed at least 78 people, including 28 children. Dozens are still missing, including 10 girls and one counselor from Camp Mystic in Kerr County, which bore the brunt of the devastation. Tributes to them and others poured out over the weekend, as more victims were identified. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) warned Sunday that further storms and flooding could bring danger in the next 24 to 48 hours. The flooding in Central Texas is among the deadliest freshwater flood events in the United States in the past 50 years, and with the death toll expected to rise, it could surpass the Johnstown, Pennsylvania, floods of 1977 that claimed 84 lives. HUNT, Texas — The 750 campers were sound asleep in their bunk beds in the early-morning hours of July 4, expecting to wake up to a day of celebrations — a fireworks show and special treats of Hershey's bars and Coca-Cola by the river that evening. Late Sunday afternoon, dark clouds descended once again over the area. Thunder began to rumble. A slow but steady rain began to fall. Along the Guadalupe River between the towns of Comfort and Center Point, searchers continued to walk the riverbanks amid warnings that the water could soon rise again. 'If it were my kids, I would want anybody to help,' said Mario Fierro, 36, of Kerrville.
