Clouds and rain continue Thursday in Philadelphia area, looking ahead to Memorial Day weekend forecast
Here we go again! Weather conditions on Thursday in the Philadelphia region will be very similar to what we had on Wednesday, which means a cloudy, chilly, breezy day with off-and-on rain throughout the day.
For the morning, we'll see pockets of steady rain that could slow down your commute.
Plan on having your umbrella with you, and needing it from time to time. While total rainfall doesn't look like it will lead to flooding, it will definitely impact folks who work outdoors and likely means indoor recess for the kids.
Lingering showers and clouds are expected on Friday, but some late-day clearing is expected, and while temps will be noticeably warmer on Friday, the highs in the mid-upper 60s will be considerably lower than the normal high of 76 this time of year.
