AFTERNOON. 
BUT THE NIGHTTIME HOURS AFTER 
SUNSET WE ARE LOOKING MUCH 
DRIER JUST IN TIME FOR THE END 
OF THE WORKWEEK ON FRIDAY. 
I'LL SHOW YOU IN JUST A LITTLE 
BIT. 
BUT RIGHT NOW, WE ARE TRACKING 
SOME HEAVY DOWNPOURS AND MAINLY 
TOWARD THE SOUTH AND EAST 
ESPECIALLY THROUGHOUT PORTIONS 
OF WESTMORELAND COUNTY. 
NOW. 
MOSTLY TO THE EAST OF 
GREENSBURG AND ALSO FARTHER 
SOUTH AS WELL INTO NORTHERN AND 
CENTRAL FAYETTE COUNTY AND EVEN 
JUST A LITTLE BIT TO THE FAR 
EASTERN PORTION OF GREENE 
COUNTY. 
TO THE EAST OF WANESBURG. 
SO TRACKING SOME HEAVIER 
DOWNPOURS. 
THE GOOD NEWS IS I'VE BEEN 
TRACKING THE SHOWERS FOR A FEW 
HOURS NOW AND HAVEN'T SEEN ANY 
LIGHTNING. 
BUT IF WE HAVE ANY 
THUNDERSTORMS WE WILL 
DEFINITELY KEEP OUR EYE ON IT 
AND WE DO HAVE VERY LOW 
POSSIBILITY FOR STRONG TO 
SEVERE STORMS TODAY. 
SO WE'LL CONTINUE TO KEEP OUR 
EYE ON ANY ACTIVITY AS WE GO 
THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE 
AFTERNOON. 
SO AGAIN, THESE SHOWERS COULD 
BE VERY HEAVY AT TIMES. 
AND COULD ALSO INCLUDE SOME 
GUSTY WINDS AND AGAIN, HAVE TO 
MONITOR ANY POSSIBILITY FOR ANY 
STORMS THAT COULD CAUSE SOME 
ISSUES. 
BUT THE RAIN CAUSING ISSUES 
ENOUGH MAKING FOR A MESSY DAY, 
MESSY ROADWAYS AND MAKE SURE TO 
BE CAREFUL OUT THERE ON YOUR 
EVENING COMMUTE. 
EVEN THOUGH IT MAY BE DRY 
AROUND 5:00 A LOT OF FOLKS 
GETTING ON ROADWAYS HEADING 
HOME. 
THE ROADWAYS MAY STILL BE WET 
EVEN THOUGH IT MAY NOT BE 
RAINING MAKE SURE TO KEEP A 
SAFE DISTANCE BETWEEN CARS AND 
DRIVE CARENY. 
HERE'S 8:00 AFTER SUNSET. 
NOTICE HOW DRY WE ARE. 
STORM TRACKER SHOWING DRIER 
SCENARIO AND THAT'S GOING TO 
CONTINUE FOR THE REST OF THE 
NIGHTTIME HOURS AS WELL. 
AS THAT COLD FRONT CONTINUES TO 
PUSH OFF TOWARD THE SOUTH AND 
EAST. 
WE COULD STILL HAVE A FEW POST 
FRONTAL SHOWERS AND I DO MEAN A 
FEW. 
EARLY TOMORROW MORNING AND ALSO 
A GOOD BIT OF CLOUD COVER BUT 
THE GOOD THING IS, BEHIND THAT 
COLD FRONT WE'RE GOING TO 
CONTINUE TO FILTER IN DRIER AND 
COOLER AIR INTO THE AREA. 
SO AROUND LUNCHTIME, LOOKING 
PRETTY GOOD. 
HERE'S 12:00 NOON TOMORROW. 
WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO 
CLEAR THINGS OUT ALLOWING 
PLENTY OF SUNSHINE FOR THE 
SECOND HALF OF THE DAY FOR YOUR 
FRIDAY AND REALLY LOOKING MUCH 
BETTER. 
NOW WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF RAIN 
IN THE AREA DURING THIS PAST 
WEEK. 
AND HERE'S THE LATEST DROUGHT 
MONITOR AND NOTICE HOW MUCH THE 
DROUGHT HAS BEEN ALLEVIATED. 
SO LAST WEEK, WE WERE IN A 
MODERATE DROUGHT FOR MUCH OF 
THE AREA. 
NOW WE ARE ABNORMALLY DRY. 
THAT'S THE YELLOW COLOR YOU SEE 
HERE AND EVEN SOME PORTIONS OF 
OUR AREA COMPLETELY OUT OF THE 
DROUGHT. 
SO WE HAVE NUMEROUS AND 
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS TODAY AND 
THEN AFTER THAT COLD FRONT 
MAKING FOR A BEAUTIFUL SCENARIO 
INTO LABOR DAY WEEKEND. 
WEEKEND ALWAYS IN VIEW LOOKING 
GOOD. 
MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES FOR SATURDAY 
AND WARMING UP JUST A BIT. 
GOING INTO YOUR SUNDAY. 
WHAT WE'LL HAVE A WIND 
DIRECTION SHIFT PUSHING IN A 
LITTLE BIT OF WARM AIR INTO THE 
AREA. 
BUT WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE 
WET WEATHER TODAY AND FOR YOUR 
ACTUAL LABOR DAY ON MONDAY. 
TO HAVE AN ISOLATED SHOWER.

DEGREES.

INSURERS WERE GIVING US REBATES 
ON OUR PREMIUMS. 
BUT MOST OF THEM HAVE GONE 
PRETTY SILENT LATELY.
