Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Tuesday will offer a wet start to the day and a cooler trend throughout the week as rain showers and strong winds move into the area.
The National Weather Service predicts that Tuesday will see a high of 52°F in Philadelphia and that there will be continuous rain all day. Along the I-95 corridor, winds will increase to 15-20 mph with gusts as high as 25 mph. When traveling in the morning and evening, commuters should be ready for slick roads and potential delays.
As temperatures drop to 40°F on Tuesday night, rain showers will gradually stop. With a high of 48°F and partly cloudy skies, Wednesday provides a little respite before another system moves in later this week.
Temperatures will slightly increase to 50°F on Thursday, although there may be more sporadic showers in the afternoon. While Saturday promises another round of spring showers with highs in the mid-50s, Friday stays cold with a high of 47°F.
Although no severe weather is predicted, locals should be abreast of any changes, particularly if they are traveling along I-95 or in low-lying areas that are vulnerable to flooding. Rain gear and umbrellas are necessary because the damp pattern is expected to last over the weekend.
