Charlie Woodrum, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service, said a storm crossing the Ohio Valley should hit Pittsburgh this afternoon, bringing 1 to 3 inches of snow during the day and 2 to 3 inches tonight. The snow will continue into Tuesday, in the form of scattered showers.

Woodrum said this snow will be lighter than the snow that fell during last week’s record snowstorm, but that it could still be dangerous for drivers.

Temperatures will remain below freezing, with a high of about 30 degrees today and temperatures dropping into the teens tonight. Tuesday, the high will probably be in the upper 20s, meaning the snow could accumulate, Woodrum said.

He said it’s possible Pittsburgh could receive some flurries after this storm, but that he doesn’t think any significant storms will hit Pittsburgh soon after today’s snowfall.
