The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for our region beginning this evening at 7 p.m.
The forecast calls for much less severe weather than the winter storm that came through at the beginning of the week.
National Weather Service meteorologist Matt Brudy said Southwestern Pennsylvania can expect one to three inches of snow, beginning around 10:00 p.m. tonight.
"It's not going to be anything that falls at a very high rate," Brudy said. "It's generally going to be less than half an inch per hour."
❄️We've expanded the Winter Weather Advisory to cover eastern OH and a good chunk of southwest PA as light, steady snow arrives Friday night. Most of it will fall overnight with the highest amounts in the higher elevations. Given how cold we are, the snow will accumulate easily. pic.twitter.com/fxg81Rt4s0
