Pittsburgh and Allegheny County are expected to see about 1 inch of snow.

The eastern parts of Westmoreland County, including Latrobe, could see between 3-4 inches of snow.

Northern sections of Butler and Armstrong County could see 1-2 inches of snow.

The weather service said a cold front will move into the area in the afternoon, first hitting the western section of the region and then moving toward the evening as the night progresses.
