Pittsburgh is rolling out of bed to a mostly clear, humid morning, with temperatures around 689F. Skies stay mostly sunny today, with a high near 879F and an east wind around 5D7 mph.
Fog Hugs The South Hills
Low-level moisture is clinging to river valleys and suburbs south of the city early on Sunday, holding pockets of fog and low clouds in place. Those murky spots should mix out after sunrise. The rest of the metro looks dry, with only a slight chance of an isolated shower far to the south, according to the NWS Pittsburgh.
Thermostat Creep: Heat Peaks Midweek
Temperatures climb as the week goes on. Tuesday, July 14, 2026, is forecast near 929F, and Wednesday, July 15, 2026, is expected to be the hottest stretch, with highs around 949F and heat-index values in the mid-90s. Light winds and a building ridge of high pressure should keep things dry into Thursday before storm chances tick up late in the week. If you have outdoor plans, expect the most intense heat during the mid- to late-afternoon and try to schedule strenuous activity for the cooler morning hours.
Staying Cool In A Sweltering Stretch
