Clouds expected in the area

WEATHER LOOKS GREAT AS THEY CONTINUE THE HOMESTAND. OVER ON THE NORTH SHORE THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING HOURS AS WELL. TEMPERATURES THOUGH, AS WE GET YOUR MONDAY STARTED. FAIRLY MILD, A LITTLE VARIETY AS YOU LOOK ACROSS WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA. LOWER 40S FOR WAYNESBURG AND BEAVER. MEANWHILE, IT’S TEN DEGREES WARMER HERE IN PITTSBURGH, EVEN INTO GREENSBURG. YOU’RE WAKING UP IN THE MID 50S THIS MORNING. SKIES FEATURING SOME CLOUDS. ALTHOUGH IT LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE BIT OF A CLEARER PICTURE RIGHT NOW DOWNTOWN. BUT THERE ARE MORE CLOUDS THAT WILL BE BUILDING IN AS WE WORK THROUGH THIS MORNING. THAT’S A WARM FRONT APPROACHES ALSO ALONG FOR THE RIDE. SOME SPOTTY SHOWERS THAT HAVEN’T MADE IT OUT OF WEST VIRGINIA OR OHIO JUST YET. I WILL KEEP AN EYE ON THOSE. WE CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. SO HERE’S HOW THE NEXT 12 HOURS WILL PLAY OUT AS WE APPROACH SIX, SEVEN, EVEN 8:00. THIS MORNING. CAN’T RULE OUT SOME OF THOSE VERY ISOLATED SHOWERS ACROSS WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA. RAIN GETS OUT OF HERE RIGHT ON TIME. AS WE APPROACH THE LUNCH HOUR, THINGS WILL BE DRYING UP CLOUDS THOUGH LAGGING BEHIND. AND OF COURSE WE DON’T WANT ANY CLOUDS, ESPECIALLY ON THE SOLAR ECLIPSE DAY. BUT THERE COULD BE SOME LUCKY FEW THAT CATCH A BREAK IN THOSE CLOUDS AS WE WORK THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. A CLOSER LOOK ON FUTURECAST AS WE APPROACH TEN 11:00 THE LAST OF THE SHOWERS WILL CLEAR. THERE MAY BE A FEW MOMENTS WHERE WE DO SEE THE SUN POKING THROUGH THOSE CLOUDS, BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE CLEARING TREND IS NOT GOING TO BE ACCELERATED OR REALLY ALL AT ONCE ACROSS THE AREA. BETTER OPPORTUNITY TO SEE MORE BREAKS IN THE CLOUD DECK AS WE APPROACH THE TIME OF MAXIMUM ECLIPSE JUST AFTER 3:00 THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE FROM ABOUT 79 WESTWARD, SO CLOSER TO THE OHIO AND WEST VIRGINIA LINES. THOSE OF YOU OFF TOWARDS THE EAST. HOPEFULLY THE CLOUDS CAN THIN JUST A LITTLE BIT SO YOU CAN SEE AT LEAST SOME VIEW OF THE PARTIAL ECLIPSE. IF YOU HAVE PLANS TO TRAVEL TO ERIE LOOKS TO BE A VERY SIMILAR SETUP TO US HERE IN PITTSBURGH. BY THIS EVENING, THOUGH, THOSE CLOUDS ARE OUT OF HERE. SO REALLY IT COMES DOWN TO JUST A MATTER OF A COUPLE OF HOURS. THAT CLEARING TREND BEING DELAYED AS WE CONTINUE THROUGH THE MIDDLE PART OF THIS WEEK, WE WILL SEE THE RETURN OF MORE CLOUDS AND EVENTUALLY SOME RAIN CHANCES. BETTER OPPORTUNITY. THERE WILL COME IN WEDNESDAY AND EXTENDING THROUGH THE END OF THIS WEEK. SO MOSTLY CLOUDY ON THE SOLAR ECLIPSE DAY. SOME STRAY SHOWERS, ESPECIALLY IN THE MORNING. ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, TEMPERATURES VERY PLEASANT INTO THE AFTERNOON WILL MAX OUT AROUND 65. STAYING MILD TONIGHT. CLEARING THIS EVENING WILL GIVE WAY TO PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES BY TOMORROW MORNING. MORE CLOUDS AND SUNSHINE FOR YOUR TUESDAY AS TEMPERATURES SKIP AHEAD INTO THE LOWER 70S. WE’RE BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THE 60S AND 70S FOR THE REST OF THIS WEEK. RAIN CHANCES ON THEIR WAY UP WEDNESDAY, ESPECIALLY THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY. BRIEF COOL DOWN THERE BEFORE TEMPERATURES GET BACK INTO THE
