Sunny, nice Tuesday in Philadelphia region before temps heat up again. Here's the weather forecast.
Tuesday in the Philadelphia region will be the nicest day for the remainder of the week, by far.
With sunshine, comfortable temps and remarkably comfortable humidity levels, Tuesday is the day to get outside — whether for work, play or prep; take advantage of the day.
Temperatures will warm to the low 80s after a cool start in the 50s and 60s.
Bring your lunch and eat outside, play with the kids after work, take a bike ride, get the yard mowed, etc. Changes will come rapidly, beginning Wednesday.
NEXT big weather changes
We have several next big changes coming.
First, the humidity levels: They will be going up dramatically by Wednesday and will be downright oppressive by late in the day. It stays like that through Friday.
As for storms, showers and a few rumbles of thunder are likely on Wednesday, especially between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m. as humidity and heat begin to build.
Things really pick up Thursday and Friday, when the temps will be headed back into the mid-90s with humidity making the feels-like-temps closer to 100 degrees, perhaps higher during the peak heating of the day.
Then, as the warm front moves through and then again Thursday and Friday, some of those storms could get strong. Your NEXT Weather team is constantly monitoring and will keep you posted.
FYI: Summer officially begins Sunday, June 21, at 4:24 a.m., which is also Father's Day, which means the longest day of the year just became Dad's day to shine a little longer.
