Rain returns: On-and-off showers on Thursday

PITTSBURGH — Big changes start today as we head toward the weekend.

There will be plenty of rain Thursday, although most of it will be on the lighter side. Rain will be steadier in the morning, then taper off to a few showers later in the day.

Colder air Friday will allow some very light rain to mix with wet snow at times, but temperatures above freezing will mean most snow melts, leaving roads wet. Most of the day will be cloudy and breezy with highs in the lower 40s.

Wind chills Saturday will hover in the 20s and 30s and scattered lake-effect snow showers will whiten the ground in a few spots, especially north near Lake Erie and in the higher elevations.
