Another day of record heat Thursday in Philadelphia region. Here's the weather forecast.
Well, it's official. Philadelphia has recorded its first 90-degree day of the year, and it came VERY early. In fact, the high of 91 degrees on Wednesday marked the fourth earliest EVER for a 90-degree-plus temperature, and we're going to do it again on Thursday.
We should set a record for morning low temperature as well, hitting 67 overnight (today's record morning low is 62 degrees).
But, as the 80s band Asia sang, it was "Heat of the Moment" as temps are about to take a major tumble next week. For your Thursday though, it's shorts, T-shirts, flip flops and a running air conditioner to stay cool.
After the warm day, a weak front will pass through overnight with nothing more than a shower.
NEXT big weather changes
Temps will stay above normal (well above normal) through Saturday with generally dry conditions. A few showers are possible on Friday, but the next significant weather change arrives Saturday night and brings showers, wind, and considerably cooler temps during the day on Sunday.
At this point, severe weather chances are low, but with all cold fronts, we'll continue to monitor.
The cooldown takes a big hold by early next week, with Monday's highs only in the 50s and possible frost or freeze advisories by Tuesday morning.
But hey, like Elsa sang — the cold never bothered me anyway.
