Cooler Temps and Flood Watch in Pittsburgh Area
The Pittsburgh area is experiencing cooler temperatures as fall begins, with morning lows in the mid-50s (12-13°C) and highs expected to reach near 60°F (15-16°C) by 3 p.m. today. Overcast skies and light rain will persist throughout the day, with some areas potentially receiving up to 0.75 inches of rain. A flood watch remains in effect for Allegheny County and areas to the south until 8 a.m. Wednesday due to rising rivers and streams, particularly the Monongahela River at Grays Landing, which is forecast to reach its 'action stage' tonight. The flash flood risk has subsided, but minor flooding concerns remain as water levels continue to rise.
