Rain chances are back today, with rain possible both this morning and into the afternoon. WEATHER LINKS: Current Conditions | School Closings & Delays | Submit Your Weather Photos It appears most places should see at least two rounds of rain today. One this morning and then another round of rain this afternoon. Rain totals for the day should range from half an inch to a full inch for most places. Some communities may see more than an inch and a half. Rain showers will come as a cold front sweeps through, cooling us down both on Thursday and Friday. Moisture moved in overnight. With winds converging at the surface, you have an additional lift method going on. You may want to keep the umbrella handy throughout the day. With rain around, highs today should hit the mid to low 80s, well off of yesterday's 93° high recorded in Pittsburgh. Morning temperatures were in the mid-70s, and I have today's low temperatures occurring just before midnight. I have Pittsburgh falling to 70 degrees at that time. Noon temperatures today should be in the upper 70s. Looking ahead, if we see any rain on Thursday, it would be before sunrise.

Tropical Storm Erin likely to become 1st hurricane of 2025 season
Tropical Storm Erin is expected to become the first hurricane of the 2025 season later this week. This will likely happen as it moves into a region of the Atlantic with favorable conditions for strengthening. Currently, Tropical Storm Erin is not expected to significantly increase in strength in the short term. However, later this week, it will enter an area with warm ocean temperatures and low wind shear, which are conducive to hurricane development. Long-range models suggest that Erin will remain off the East Coast through the middle of next week, but meteorologists caution that the storm's track is not yet certain and will be monitored closely. In addition to Erin, there are two other areas being watched for potential development. One of these is near the Florida Panhandle. It is not expected to develop into a storm on Tuesday, but it could bring heavy rainfall to parts of the Gulf Coast, including Florida's coastline. As Erin approaches the Eastern Caribbean, residents and officials are advised to stay informed about its progress, given the potential for it to become a hurricane. Monitoring will continue over the next few days to assess any changes in its path or intensity. Click here to download our free news, weather and smart TV apps.
