Pittsburgh Weather: Scattered showers this afternoon, cool air in place tomorrow
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – Here we go. Break out the sweatpants and pumpkin-spiced-smelling candles with cooler air set to arrive this afternoon.
Daily average High: 77 Low: 56
Sunrise: 6:58 Sunset: 7:35
Any Alert Days Ahead?: None.
Aware: Highs on Wednesday and Thursday probably don’t get back to the 70s.
On the leading edge of this early season punch of fall-like air, we will see scattered showers and isolated storms rolling through. The rain could start as soon as 2 p.m. and will continue into early Wednesday morning.
There will be a chance for rain as the kids are getting out of school today, along with folks’ evening commute home from work. The Pirates game could also be delayed and maybe even postponed due to rain showers, with the threat of a storm or two. While severe weather is not expected today, storms could still prove dangerous if caught outside. Please be weather-aware.
Highs today should hit the upper 70s after we hit 80 yesterday for the high. Similar to yesterday, a low cloud deck and patchy fog should be expected for this morning.
Morning temperatures will be near 60. Noon temperatures should be in the mid-70s. Highs today will be reached fairly early, around 2 p.m., with temperatures slowly dropping for the rest of the day. I have 6 p.m. temperatures at 69. Winds will be light with some variability. I have them starting out of the east, then the southeast, and eventually the southwest by sunset.
Looking ahead, highs on Wednesday and Thursday should be in the upper 60s. Morning lows tank over the next couple of days, with morning lows below 50 being forecast on Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings.

Pittsburgh Steelers offense could throw new twist at Ravens in playoff clash
PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers will not be benching Russell Wilson against the Baltimore Ravens, but they could use Justin Fields more. Now fully recovered from an abdominal injury he suffered against the Philadelphia Eagles, head coach Mike Tomlin acknowledged that he is open to using Fields against the Ravens.
The ‘Justin Fields package’ has been talked about extensively this season, but circumstances have consistently pushed back the possibility of Fields getting more involved with a package weekly.
Now, Tomlin says that could certainly happen as Fields is healthy, and the team clearly needs a spark.
“I’m certainly open to utilizing Justin. He has an awesome skillset and we’ve done some of that in the past,” Tomlin said. “We’ve done that less in that last couple of weeks because he experienced an injury that slowed some of that. But in an effort to win this game, I am open to any combination or combinations of divisions of labor in an ability to do so.”
Fields missed two games with an abdominal injury. Before that, the Steelers had used Fields as a runner and, sometimes, a passer, which had mixed results throughout their package’s deployment.
While it seems that Fields will not start against the Ravens, he could see some time where he could make an impact, whether on the ground or through the air.

Sebastian Aho’s overtime goal lifts Hurricanes to 4-3 win over Penguins
Sebastian Aho’s goal at 1:30 in overtime led the Carolina Hurricanes to a 4-3 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday night.
Aho added two assists. Seth Jarvis had two goals and Jalen Chatfield also scored for the Hurricanes, who improved to 3-0 against Pittsburgh this season. Dustin Tokarski had 16 saves for the Hurricanes.
Kevin Hayes, Michael Bunting and Erik Karlsson scored for the Penguins. Alex Nedeljkovic stopped 26 shots for Pittsburgh.
The Penguins built a 2-0 lead in the first six minutes of the game. Hayes and Bunting beat Tokarski for the early advantage.
Aho set up Jarvis’ first goal and then fed Chatfield to tie the game at 2-2 with 7:15 left in the second period. Jarvis made it 3-2 with an assist from Andrei Svechnikov with 3:42 left in the second.
Penguins: Pittsburgh has struggled on the road since a 9-2 win at Montreal on Dec. 12. Production from stars Sidney Crosby (1 goal, 1 assist) and Evgeni Malkin (0 goals, 3 assists) has been scarce in those road losses.
Hurricanes: Falling behind 2-0 in the first period felt like a continuation of Saturday’s 4-0 home loss to Minnesota. Carolina coach Rod Brind’Amour is looking for more consistency. The Hurricanes have alternated losses and wins in their past six games.
The Hurricanes penalty kill, second-best in the NHL, held up late in regulation when Chatfield was sent to the box for a delay of game with 3 minutes left in the third period.
Aho’s overtime goal was his 600th career point in his ninth season with Carolina. Jarvis’ second-period assist was the 100th of his career.
The Penguins host Columbus on Tuesday while the Hurricanes travel to Tampa Bay on Tuesday.
