September - Mid-OctoberLight sweaters are in, as well as your hiking boots, as I'm sure you'll want to get out and enjoy the gorgeous fall leaves of Western Pennsylvania. Average highs in the low-to-mid 60s. Fall is one of the prettiest times in Pittsburgh, a respite between the hot days of summer and snowy cold winters.
