Temperatures drop into teens overnight

PITTSBURGH — The cold is the main headline here locally this weekend. Sunday will start with marks around 20 degrees and wind chills in the lower teens. Highs Sunday afternoon again will come in just below the freezing mark, wind chills will be in the low 20s. Make sure to bundle up if you are heading out.

Areas north of Pittsburgh are getting hit with heavy snow as lake effect snow continues to dump heavy snowfall amounts in Erie County, northeastern Ohio and into western New York along I-90. Major winter impacts will continue in those locations along Lake Erie, storm totals near the lake could reach 4′-6′ through Tuesday morning.

The Pittsburgh area will continue with colder-than-average temperatures this week along with a few snow showers on Monday. Another reinforcing shot of cold air will come mid to late next week with the potential for some accumulating snow to our area Wednesday night through Friday.
