Showers and storms return Thursday ahead of mixed-bag weekend

PITTSBURGH — Spring-like warmth will help fuel showers and thunderstorms Thursday, so check the Severe Weather Team 11 forecast before you head outdoors.

You’ll need the umbrella mid-morning as a few showers and an isolated storm move through, but there should be several dry hours before the next round in the early afternoon.
