Pittsburgh Braces for Significant Snowstorm, Followed by Arctic Blast

PITTSBURGH (CBS Pittsburgh) – A major snowstorm is poised to blanket the Pittsburgh region starting this afternoon, Saturday, December 13, 2025, bringing with it potentially hazardous travel conditions and a dramatic drop in temperatures.

The storm, originating from an Alberta Clipper system, is expected to bring the heaviest snowfall to areas south of I-70, including Washington, Westmoreland, Greene, and Fayette Counties, with accumulations of 6 to 10 inches anticipated, especially in higher elevations. Allegheny County and areas to the north can expect heavy snow as well, though amounts are predicted to be in the 3 to 5-inch range.

Winter Weather Advisories and Winter Storm Warnings will be in effect from 1 p.m. Saturday until 1 p.m. Sunday. Areas north of I-80 will remain under a Winter Weather Advisory until 8 a.m. Monday due to lake-effect snow showers.

The snow is expected to taper off around midnight, becoming more scattered into early Sunday. However, the departure of the snow will usher in a wave of frigid air. Lows on Sunday are forecast to plummet into the single digits, with wind chills dipping below zero. Highs on Sunday will struggle to reach the low 20s, feeling like single digits and teens throughout the day.

Monday will remain cold with lows in the teens and highs in the low 20s, with cloudy skies. Temperatures will gradually moderate throughout the week, with the low 40s returning by Wednesday. Rain is expected on Thursday, with highs reaching the low 50s before cooling back down to the 30s on Friday.

Currently, long-range forecasts suggest above-normal temperatures around Christmas, making a white Christmas in Pittsburgh appear unlikely.
