Cool Wednesday in Philadelphia region with wind gusts up to 30 mph. Here's the weather forecast.
A cold front has crossed the Philadelphia region and our weather Wednesday morning will include some lingering showers and patchy fog, especially northwest of the city.
This will clear out quickly thanks to a northwest breeze.
Later Wednesday, expect sunshine and more breezy conditions, with gusts up to 30 mph. Temperatures will be noticeably cooler with highs only into the low to mid-60s, slightly cooler than usual for this time of year.
Another weak cold front moves through late Thursday with only a few spotty showers before high pressure returns Friday, bringing sunshine and cooler, calmer weather into the weekend.
The coldest air of the season will drape over the Delaware Valley with lows in the city near 40 degrees by the end of the week, with widespread mid-low 30s in the burbs.
The weekend is trending dry and cool — good fall football weather for the Eagles game on Sunday. Be sure to bring the coat if spending time outdoors, but go ahead and leave the umbrella at home.
Also, Tuesday's sunset occurred at 6:12 p.m., which is one of the last sunsets this year in the 6 o'clock hour.
By Halloween, the sun will set at 5:59 p.m. Two days later (after setting clocks back), the sun will set at 4:56 p.m.! That's right, in less than two weeks, the sun will be setting in the 4 o'clock hour! Next thing you know, it will be Christmas followed by 2026. It's incredible how quickly time flies by.
