PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- More sunny and seasonable conditions are on tap for Presidents Day.

While actual temps will warm into the low 40s today, wind chills will keep the feels-like temps in the 30s. But it should feel less breezy today than it did over the weekend.

High pressure continues to dominate the forecast, meaning this sunny and cool weather will stick around through at least Wednesday.

Temperatures will hover in the 40s for the first half of the week before climbing into the 50s by the end.

Our next chance for rain comes on Thursday. First, clouds will increase during the day as a storm approaches from the west. Scattered showers are possible overnight Thursday and then we're looking at a mostly rainy day Friday.

Because of the warmer conditions, this is shaping up to be just a rain event, though the Poconos could see a few light snow showers as this system moves through.

Then colder air and sunshine circle back around on Saturday.
