Pittsburgh Weather: Risk for strong storms returns Wednesday evening

PITTSBURGH — The heat and humidity are back, so is the chance of a stray shower or storm in the afternoon, then the risk of storms in the evening.

It’s breezy too, with wind gusts around 25 mph.

A line of storms will move in from the northwest and drop southeast this evening and through overnight.

Storms could be severe and bring damaging winds, downpours, lightning, and an isolated tornado can’t be ruled out. Make sure to have a way to stay weather-aware this evening and overnight.

Mostly cloudy and humid Thursday; showers and storms are possible, especially in the late afternoon and early evening hours.

Friday will be brighter and comfortable, with highs in the mid-70s. Warmer this weekend, with a slight chance of a few showers or a storm possible Saturday evening, with a few leftover showers Sunday morning.
