Pittsburgh getting break from snow as bitter cold moves in
The latest snowfall is being capped off by some light freezing drizzle Tuesday morning, a National Weather Service meteorologist said.
Between 1 and 3 inches of snow fell across the Pittsburgh area Monday, tapering off last evening, meteorologist Bill Modzelewski said.
Some light snow and patchy freezing drizzle Tuesday morning could make secondary and untreated roads slippery and leave a glaze of ice on cars parked outside. Some schools were announcing delays Tuesday morning; a complete listing is available from Tribune-Review news partner WPXI-TV.
All of that should be over by 7 a.m. as drier air moves in, giving the Pittsburgh area a break from snow until Friday. While early to predict how much will come then, Modzelewski said accumulations are generally looking light.
The temperatures will be the main issue over the next couple of days.
After a high in the mid-20s Tuesday, Modzelewski said the low will fall into the single digits Tuesday night. On Wednesday, the high will only get to the upper teens to near 20, and then fall to anywhere from o to 5 below zero that night, depending on location.
The seasonal averages for this time of year are highs in the mid-30s and lows in the 20s.
The early AM weather map/radar shows scattered snow showers with a crossing cold front. A few snow showers should continue through the afternoon for areas N of Pittsburgh, and in the higher terrain areas of PA and WV, with less than an inch of additional snow accumulation. pic.twitter.com/CJMjv3Z8Xx— NWS Pittsburgh (@NWSPittsburgh) January 25, 2022
