Philadelphia, PA – Spring-like temperatures will make a brief appearance in Philadelphia on Monday before midweek showers bring cooler conditions. A dry and sunny start to the week will give way to increasing rain chances by Tuesday night, with breezy conditions persisting.
According to the National Weather Service, Monday will be sunny with a high of 40°F, accompanied by light southwest winds. Tuesday will see a significant warm-up, reaching 54°F under partly sunny skies. However, rain showers are expected to move in late Tuesday night, with a 30% chance of precipitation.
By Wednesday, rain becomes more widespread, with a 90% chance of showers and gusty winds. The high will climb to 59°F, but the combination of wet roads and wind may cause hazardous travel conditions, especially on I-95 and surrounding highways. Drivers should allow extra time for commutes.
Wednesday night will remain rainy, with temperatures dropping to 48°F. The system lingers into Thursday, bringing overcast skies and cooler temperatures, with highs near 51°F. Breezy conditions will persist, making it feel cooler than the actual temperature.
