Wind Advisory: 50+ mph wind gusts, rain could impact Thanksgiving travel

PITTSBURGH — Wind chills in the 20s will help you burn off the extra calories on Thanksgiving Day.

A few rain or snow showers will also move through the area from time to time, but no major travel problems are expected.

Light snow could leave a coating to around one inch near Seven Springs or in the higher elevations and along I-80, but any snow locally should melt.

Winds will gust to 50 mph or more at times, leading to the possibility of spotty power outages and downed trees. The strongest winds will happen between noon and 5 p.m., but the strong breeze will last much of Wednesday night.
