Pittsburgh has been cloudier than normal this month. Here's how many sunny days there were.
If you're thinking Pittsburgh hasn't gotten much sun this month, you'd be right. Over an entire year, Pittsburgh averages 59 clear or mostly clear days, 103 partly cloudy days and 203 cloudy or mostly cloudy days, according to the National Centers for Environmental Information. With the average number of cloudy days outnumbering the clear days, it's no surprise that Pittsburghers try to take advantage of the few clear days we get. While most look forward to bright late spring and summer days, this month has not really offered much of that. (Photo: KDKA Weather Center) This May has been cloudier than normal Through May 29, Pittsburgh has seen 18 cloudy or mostly cloudy days, nine partly cloudy days and only two mostly sunny or completely sunny days. Note two days of climate data on the calendar from May 13 and 14 are missing, but looking at past hourly observations, we can clearly infer that May 13 and 14 leaned mostly cloudy to cloudy. While Pittsburgh is certainly used to being a cloudy city, this month has been cloudier than average. Normally, May averages 17 cloudy or mostly cloudy days, nine partly cloudy days, and five mostly sunny or sunny days. It is likely that May 30 and 31 will be counted as mostly cloudy or cloudy, pushing the total number of cloudy days for May 2025 to 20, which is above normal for Pittsburgh. (Photo: KDKA Weather Center) Why is Pittsburgh so cloudy? Western Pennsylvania is one of the cloudiest regions in the country due to the geography of the region. Being downwind the Great Lakes means that clouds are more likely to form, especially during the fall and winter months when cold air blows over relatively warm lake waters, creating instability, lift and cloud formation. Moisture rising upslope the hilly terrain and westward facing sides of the Laurel Highlands also contributes to cloud development. Finally, big areas of low pressure often like to settle just north of Pittsburgh over the Great Lakes up toward Hudson Bay in Canada, which keeps unsettled weather in our region for longer periods of time. Being far removed from the Rockies and Desert Southwest prevents us from getting longer intrusions of dry air which help states to our west see a greater number of clear days on average.

Warm but cloudy Tuesday in Philadelphia area, scattered showers to end the week. Here's the weather forecast.
Cloudy Tuesday in store for Philadelphia area, wet weather on the way Cloudy Tuesday in store for Philadelphia area, wet weather on the way Cloudy Tuesday in store for Philadelphia area, wet weather on the way The weather conditions will be relatively kind Tuesday to welcome back kids to school and adults back to work after a gorgeous Memorial Day in the Philadelphia area. More cloud cover will blanket the Delaware Valley with skies ultimately becoming overcast. Despite the clouds, temperatures Tuesday afternoon will still peak in the mid to upper 70s. Then get ready for a stretch of wet weather — rain moves in Tuesday night into Wednesday and lingers through the end of the week. Temps drop to the mid-60s Wednesday but rebound into the upper 70s by Thursday and Friday with the chance for scattered showers each day through Saturday. CBS News Philadelphia While the chances are low (about 20%), be on the lookout for the occasional thunderstorm as some humidity starts to increase with south winds. At this point, it looks to dry out and warm up by the second half of the weekend with mid-80s possible by Monday of next week. Back to the rain: There is some good news with all this. For the first time in more than eight months, the Philadelphia area is no longer under any drought scenario, and that doesn't account for the 1 inch or so we got last Wednesday and Thursday, so when the weekly drought monitor is released on Thursday, we'll likely have even better conditions. CBS News Philadelphia 7-day forecast CBS News Philadelphia Tuesday: Mostly cloudy. High of 75, low of 55. Wednesday: Rain likely. High of 63, low of 57. Thursday: Scattered showers. High of 74, low of 58. Friday: Scattered showers. High of 76, low of 61. Saturday: Scattered showers. High of 76, low of 62. Sunday: Partly cloudy. High of 78, low of 59. Monday: Warming up.
