Western Pennsylvania Buried Under Significant Snowfall, More on the Way

Pittsburgh, PA – Western Pennsylvania residents woke up to a blanket of snow Sunday morning after a significant snowfall event swept through the region. According to the National Weather Service of Pittsburgh, snowfall totals ranged from 4 to 15 inches across the area, with Pittsburgh itself receiving approximately 6 inches.

“It was a pretty decent snowfall event for a lot of places,” said NWS Pittsburgh meteorologist Andrew Kienzle.

Saturday’s snowfall of 5 inches marked the snowiest day of 2025 so far and the largest single-day snowfall in over three years, since March 12, 2022. However, the 111-year-old record for December 13th, set in 1914 with 5.6 inches, remains unbroken.

Lake-effect snow showers are expected to continue throughout Sunday, with northwest winds potentially adding another inch of snow in some areas. The NWS warns that reduced visibility could make travel hazardous.

PennDOT lifted reduced speed limits and vehicle restrictions on major roadways Sunday morning following the initial heavy snowfall. However, drivers are still urged to exercise caution.

Another round of snow is forecast for areas north of Pittsburgh on Monday, leading to some school delays. A complete list of delays and closures is available from TribLive news partner WTAE.

Looking ahead, temperatures are expected to rise later in the week, bringing rain instead of snow.
