Pittsburgh is waking to cloudy skies Monday, but temperatures are headed for a late-fall bonus by afternoon. The city should reach about 69 degrees with light south winds and little chance of rain, while tonight stays mostly cloudy with a low near 51.

Tuesday And Wednesday Bring A Late-Fall Temperature Spike

The National Weather Service expects mostly sunny skies Tuesday, according to its Pittsburgh forecast discussion. Highs are forecast to reach the 70s Tuesday and Wednesday, roughly 15 to 20 degrees above average, making the middle of the week feel more like an early-September encore than November.

Rain Arrives Wednesday Night

Rain chances increase later Wednesday and peak Wednesday night into Thursday, with a rumble of thunder possible.

Cooler, Unsettled Weather Follows

Unsettled weather is expected to continue into the weekend, with highs near 68 Friday, 63 Saturday and 52 Sunday.

The updated outlook is a sharper turn than Hoodline’s Sunday forecast, which had Monday closer to 68 and Tuesday around 75. For now, Pittsburgh gets two unusually warm days before the umbrellas return and the week settles into a cooler, unsettled pattern.
