Pittsburgh will see mostly cloudy skies Sunday, with temperatures climbing to about 69 by afternoon. Rain stays out of the picture, setting up a mild opening to November before a wetter pattern moves in later this week.

Warm Weather Builds Through Wednesday

According to the National Weather Service, Sunday will remain mostly cloudy with light southeast winds, while Monday turns partly sunny with a high near 68. Tuesday brings mostly sunny skies and a high near 75, making it the week’s best bet for outdoor plans.

Wednesday stays unusually mild, reaching about 73 degrees with partly sunny skies before clouds thicken. The forecast discussion expects Tuesday and Wednesday temperatures to run roughly 15 to 20 degrees above average, a decidedly un-November-like stretch for the city.

Rain Arrives Wednesday Night

The weather pattern changes Wednesday night, when rain is likely after 7 p.m. and temperatures fall only to around 58 degrees. Thursday looks like the wettest day, with rain likely before 7 a.m. and again during the day.

Showers may continue into Friday, which carries a 50% chance of rain and a high near 68. Saturday looks cooler near 63, with rain chances continuing, so commuters and outdoor event planners may want to keep an eye on the midweek timing.

No Weather Alerts Are Posted

No watches, warnings or advisories are posted for Pittsburgh or the surrounding region. The updated outlook sharpens the timing compared with Hoodline’s Halloween forecast, which said rain chances would remain minimal through Tuesday.
