We're waking up to a cold and snowy morning across western Pennsylvania. If you're heading out, bundle up because temperatures are hovering right around 32 degrees, and we've got a quick-moving snow system moving through the area right now. It came in around 6 this morning and should be mostly done by 10 AM, bringing less than an inch of snow to most locations. But here's what you need to know for the rest of your day: it's going to stay bitterly cold. We're looking at highs only in the low 30s today, and tonight temperatures are going to drop dramatically. Friday morning we could see lows around 11 degrees, which might actually break the record low of 12 degrees set back in 1976. This arctic blast is going to stick around all week long, so if you haven't winterized your home yet, today's the day to do it.
On the roads, Pittsburgh's fleet of 55 snow plows has been working overtime since Monday night, pretreating streets and prioritizing main roads throughout the city and neighborhoods. City officials say if your street isn't cleared within 24 hours of significant snowfall, you should call 311 to report it. Overall, roads are in pretty good shape, though there were some accidents on state routes in Westmoreland County during the initial snowfall on Tuesday. Thankfully, no major injuries were reported.
Speaking of city decisions affecting you, Pittsburgh City Council just paused 10 million dollars that was earmarked for an affordable housing fund as they continue scrutinizing the overall budget. Meanwhile, good news came from Allegheny County this week when council passed the 2026 budget with no tax increases, no layoffs, and no service cuts. That's a welcome change after property taxes went up 36 percent last year. The county will be eliminating 675 vacant positions to make that work.
In development news, a major project is heading to a vote next week. A developer wants to transform the old coal-fired power plant in Springdale into a sprawling data center. Springdale Borough Council is voting on the conditional use permit December 16th. The project would bring significant tax revenue to the borough, jumping from just over 17 thousand dollars annually to nearly 660 thousand dollars. But residents have voiced plenty of concerns about noise levels and energy costs. Public meetings have drawn about 50 residents at a time, with many worried about utility bills and grid strain.
On the crime front, police are investigating multiple burglaries in the Zone Three area. Leon's Caribbean Restaurant on East Warrington Avenue in Allentown is the latest business targeted, and owners are calling for more visible police presence in the neighborhood.
Looking ahead, Pitt women's basketball takes on Mississippi State tonight at 7 PM on the SEC Network.
