PITTSBURGH — Grab the umbrella as you head out early Friday. Scattered showers and storms will wrap up the workweek, and a few of the storms could be strong to severe.
The latest timing brings a round of isolated showers as early as mid-morning and mainly north of Pittsburgh in Lawrence, Beaver, Butler and Armstrong counties. A brief break could set the stage for a stronger round of storms developing after lunch and into the early evening. This round of storms brings a higher threat for damaging winds, heavy downpours and hail, and although storms will be isolated, check the live Severe Weather Team 11 forecast and have the Severe Weather Team 11 app with you for the latest alerts, watches and warnings.
Saturday will be sunny and pleasant, then the heat and humidity kick into high gear.
A potentially dangerous heat wave begins Sunday with temperatures climbing near 90 and by next week highs could touch the mid-90s with heat index values as high as 101.
Heat-related impacts are likely so plan now for the heat wave. Hot temperatures are expected to last through much of next week and into the weekend.
