Let’s keep the weekend vibes continuing into the new week, or at least let’s keep the comfortable temperatures and sunshine. That’ll be the plan as temperatures take a dip into the low-middle 50s across the Philadelphia region Monday morning before warming back into the middle 70s through the afternoon under mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies.
As an area of low pressure pulls away from the coast of Maine, high pressure from the Midwest will take more control of our weather over the next couple of days to provide a nice dose of sunshine and seasonable conditions.
Temperatures Monday night will turn a little cooler under mostly clear skies with overnight lows bottoming out in the upper 40s to near 50 degrees. The influence of high pressure, however, will provide plenty of sunshine through most of the day on Tuesday, allowing temperatures to climb back into the low 70s Tuesday afternoon.
By this time, a large area of low pressure will be moving through the Great Lakes, spreading a large area of rain into the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. The chance for rain begins to increase Tuesday night, with widespread light to moderate showers likely through the day Wednesday. During this time, a coastal low-pressure system will develop to our south, which will reinforce the chance of rain but also pump in much cooler air from the northeast for Wednesday and Thursday…
