A breezy and cooler Saturday ahead of warmer temperatures in Pittsburgh, but wildfire smoke looms
The steady moderate to heavy rain from Friday has departed the region this morning, but skies will remain mostly cloudy today with breezy conditions and lingering rain showers. WEATHER LINKS: Current Conditions | School Closings & Delays | Submit Your Weather Photos Most areas north of Pittsburgh received around 0.25" or less over the last 24 hours; the Pittsburgh airport received 0.60", and the highest totals, as anticipated, occurred across our southern zones, with places like Morgantown receiving over 2". High temperatures and rain chances on Saturday KDKA Weather Center There will be some scattered lingering rain showers today through noon-1 p.m. Strong northwesterly winds will advect unseasonably cool air into the region. This will prevent daytime highs from reaching 60 in many spots, which is around 15 degrees or so below normal. The highest wind gusts could achieve 30mph in the afternoon and evening, so it won't necessarily be the nicest of late spring days. By Saturday night into Sunday, skies will slowly begin to clear, and winds will lighten up. Low temperatures on Saturday night KDKA Weather Center Most folks will see low to mid-40s for lows on Sunday with highs in the mid-60s by Sunday afternoon. A stray is possible during the midday to early afternoon hours in our northeast counties; otherwise, expect a partly cloudy sky and continued steady breeze out of the west around 10-15mph. Skies will clear Sunday night into Monday, and high pressure should leave us with several days of dry a nice weather to start next week. Lows will be in the mid-40s Monday morning before warming temperatures take hold for the middle portion of the week. We will be watching a mass of Canadian wildfire smoke that has been in place across the Upper Midwest to slowly migrate eastward by Monday into Tuesday. This could leave part of the region with smoky/hazy conditions. Looking ahead to potential wildfire smoke in our region early next week KDKA Weather Center At the moment, it is too soon to determine air quality impacts, but this is something we will watch. Temperatures will soar well into the 80s, and higher dewpoints will also move in. This will lead us into a more unsettled pattern between June 4-11 timeframe with the potential for storms and warmer air. 7-day forecast: May 31, 2025 KDKA Weather Center Stay up to date with the KDKA Mobile App – which you can download here!

Temperatures could hit 27C on Saturday as UK's sunniest spring on record draws to end
Temperatures could hit 27C on Saturday, as the UK's sunniest spring on record draws to a close. But more changeable weather is forecast next week. Temperatures reached 25.7C at Heathrow on Friday – about 7C hotter than the average for the time of year – and the trend is due to continue into Saturday, with highs of 27C possible in some areas, the Met Office said. The warm end to the season comes as provisional figures from the Met Office show 630 hours of sunshine were clocked up across the country between 1 March and 27 May. However, forecasters have also warned about the possibility of wind and rain. Met Office meteorologist Zoe Hutin said: 'For the south-east of the country, it is going to be more warm and humid too, but it's going to be the last day where temperatures are so high and humid.' A band of rain will arrive on Saturday morning which will mostly affect Northern Ireland and Scotland, where there could be some heavy downpours, but the south and east of the UK will likely stay dry, Hutin added. On Sunday, temperatures will reach about 22C, and another band of rain will arrive in the north-west of the UK. There is a better chance of dry weather in southern and eastern parts, with some areas staying completely dry. Monday, in the first full week of meteorological summer, is likely to be the driest day of the week. Low pressure in the middle of the week will probably result in cloud and showers, according to Met Office meteorologist Alex Deakin. 'Looking pretty unsettled through the middle of next week,' he said, adding that winds coming in from the Atlantic are likely to bring moisture and showers, particularly in western areas. There may be a 'hint of a change' towards the end of next week, with wetter conditions becoming more confined to northern parts.' He added that winds would keep temperatures down, and would also bring rain – especially in the west.

UK set to be hotter than Corfu with temperatures up to 27C today before rain and wind arrives
Temperatures could hit 27C on Saturday during the final weekend of the sunniest UK spring on record, before changeable weather is forecast next week. A balmy end to spring comes as provisional figures from the Met Office show 630 hours of sunshine were clocked up across the country between March 1 and May 27. While the warmer weather will be welcomed by sun worshippers, forecasters have also warned about the possibility of wind and rain. Temperatures hit 25.7C at Heathrow on Friday, about 7C hotter than the average for the time of year, and it is due to continue into Saturday with highs of 27C potentially in some areas, Met Office meteorologist Zoe Hutin said. She said: 'For the south east of the country, it is going to be more warm and humid too, but it's going to be the last day where temperatures are so high and humid.' A band of rain will arrive on Saturday morning which will mostly affect Northern Ireland and Scotland, where there could be some heavy downpours, but the south and east of the UK will likely stay dry, Ms Hutin added. On Sunday, temperatures will reach about 22C, and another band of rain will arrive in the north west of the UK. There is a better chance of dry weather in southern and eastern parts, with some areas staying completely dry. Monday, in the first full week of meteorological summer, is likely to be the driest day of the week. Low pressure in the middle of the week will likely result in cloud and showers, according to Met Office meteorologist Alex Deakin. 'Looking pretty unsettled through the middle of next week,' he said, adding that winds coming in from the Atlantic are likely to bring moisture and showers, particularly in western areas. There may be a 'hint of a change' towards the end of next week, with wetter conditions becoming more confined to northern parts. 'But overall, next week looking pretty changeable to say the least. The winds continuing to dominate from the west or the south west, which will keep things reasonably mild, but also keeping things fairly wet, especially so in western areas. 'Complete contrast to the largely easterly conditions we've had for much of spring. 'And that hint, which is all it is at this stage, of something a bit drier in the south to end the week,' he said.
