Windy, bitterly cold Tuesday in Philadelphia with feels-like temps in teens and low 20s. Here's the forecast.
Tuesday in the Philadelphia region will be bitterly cold and windy, with highs only in the mid-low 30s and feel like the teens and low 20s.
Planning your Tuesday
LAYER, LAYER, LAYER — here we go again, needing all the winter gear. Hats, gloves, coats, etc. Wind chills are in the single digits and teens all day long. Also, bring your trash cans in early once garbage is picked up, or they may be down the street. You can leave the umbrella at home, just know the winds will blast you from the northwest. Perhaps a little extra hairspray if no hat.
NEXT big weather change
The weather will remain firmly in a winter pattern as we head into the New Year.
Temperatures run about 10 degrees below normal, with highs mainly in the low to mid 30s and colder readings in the Poconos. New Year's Eve looks dry but cold and breezy, with wind chills in the teens and 20s.
New Year's Day remains chilly with similar, if not slightly colder temperatures, but there will be a small chance for a passing snow shower, mainly north and west of Philadelphia. At this point, there doesn't look to be any widespread impacts from Thursday's snow shower, but layer up big time if headed to the Mummers Parade. No major warm-up is in sight, so keep that winter gear out for the kids heading back to school next week.
