PITTSBURGH — Watch for dense fog this morning, especially from Pittsburgh points south where the visibility has tanked to a quarter mile or less. Once the fog and any showers lift, temperatures will soar today with most neighborhoods getting close to 80 degrees.

A shower or storm could pop up at any point this afternoon or evening, but most hours will be dry. Temperatures will only drop into the low to mid 60s overnight!

Friday will be another unseasonably warm day with highs again near 80. There may be a few more afternoon showers or storms compared to today, but coverage still looks spotty to widely scattered at worst.

Saturday will be warm and mostly dry, but a cold front will bring widespread rain Easter Sunday morning. The second half of the day will be drier but also much cooler with temperatures in the 50s.
