Drenching Rain to Pester Pittsburgh Into Midweek

While the week started on a dry note, a slow-moving storm has the potential to unload a couple of inches of rain on the Pittsburgh area into midweek.
The same storm responsible for severe weather and tornadoes over the Central states the past couple of days will send periods of rain through western Pennsylvania and neighboring Maryland and West Virginia into Wednesday.
While the rain will alleviate brushfire conditions, it can bring problems on the other end of the spectrum, such as travel delays from flash and urban flooding, as well as poor visibility.

During Wednesday afternoon, the flow will become more southerly and should allow warmer air to push northward into the region.

However, the warmer air will not mark an end to the chance of rain. The pattern could allow locally heavy, gusty thunderstorms to come calling on one or more occasions.
