Strong to severe storms possible Tuesday

PITTSBURGH — Strong to severe storms are possible on Tuesday bringing the threat of damaging winds, heavy downpours, frequent lightning and hail. Scattered storms are forecast to develop mid-morning through early afternoon, continuing through the early evening commute.

A Severe Thunderstorm watch could be issued before storms develop and Severe Thunderstorm warnings are possible as storms move through the area. Have a way to stay weather aware throughout the day and know the difference between a watch (severe storms are possible), and a warning (severe storms are happening or about to happen-take shelter.)

Also, scattered power outages are possible, so plan now. Check your flashlights, make sure your devices are fully charged and check the live Severe Weather Team 11 forecast for updates.
