Tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings rattled Pittsburgh Sunday afternoon, with radar showing convincing signatures around Beaver and Butler counties—no confirmed touchdowns yet, but downed trees, power lines, and flash flooding were widespread. Over 14,000 customers in Westmoreland and 5,000 in Allegheny lost power as saturated ground made even light winds dangerous. Heavy rain hammered northern Washington and southern Allegheny, flooding streets like Canonsburg, while Venango and Clarion saw 1–2 inches. Weather balloons recorded record moisture levels. Showers persist into Monday as a cold front moves in slowly, with another inch or two of rain possible. Tuesday brings drier, cooler air—but don’t relax: moisture returns Tuesday night, with a serious chance of severe weather Wednesday afternoon and lingering showers through Thursday, especially south.
