Monday in Philadelphia region will be cool, cloudy with scattered storms. Here's the weather forecast.
We're kicking off Monday just like the weekend — more clouds, scattered showers and temps stuck in the 60s in the Philadelphia region. Same story, different day.
Things start to look up a bit on Tuesday. We'll still have mostly cloudy skies, but highs will creep into the mid-70s, with only a few isolated showers popping up here and there.
By Wednesday, it starts feeling like summer again. Expect upper 80s, some scattered showers, and even a few storms, especially in the afternoon. Skies will be partly to mostly cloudy.

Thursday is the official end of spring, and we're going out with a bang. Highs will be near 90, and there is a chance of those classic afternoon storms — definitely starting to feel like summer.
And speaking of summer, Friday delivers. We're looking at sunshine and highs in the upper 80s — just about perfect.
Looking ahead at weather in Philadelphia region
Get ready — starting next Saturday, we could be entering our first heat wave of the year. That means three or more days in a row hitting 90 degrees or higher, and this stretch could keep going into the following week.

Both topped out at 98 degrees.
Our last 100-plus degree day was on July 7, 2012, when we hit 101 degrees.
And the longest heat wave on record? A whopping 12 days back in 1901, including two scorchers over 100 degrees.

How a Texas meteorologist is getting Alaska to take heat seriously
Jason Laney knows heat. The National Weather Service meteorologist spent 14 years crafting weather-related warnings in El Paso, where summer temperatures regularly rocket above 100 degrees. But Laney took a leap of faith less than a year ago, moving with his wife and two dogs from America's southern border to Alaska, where he helped change the way officials communicate about weather — and made history doing so.

India's monsoon back on track, heatwave to ease, says weather officials
By Rajendra Jadhav MUMBAI (Reuters) -India's monsoon has revived after stalling for more than a fortnight, and rains are set to cover central parts of the country this week, bringing relief from the heatwave in the grain-growing northern plains, two senior weather officials said on Monday. The monsoon, the lifeblood of the country's nearly $4 trillion economy, delivers nearly 70% of the rain that India needs to water farms and replenish aquifers and reservoirs. Nearly half of India's farmland, which has no irrigation, depends on the annual June-September rains for crop growth. The monsoon has revived after a fortnight as a favourable weather system has developed in the Bay of Bengal, which would help the monsoon to cover entire central India this week, an official of the India Meteorological Department (IMD) told Reuters. Monsoon rains on Monday covered almost entire western state of Maharashtra and entered into neighbouring Gujarat and central state of Madhya Pradesh, the official said. The Monsoon's onset over Kerala occurred on May 24 and quickly covered southern, northeastern and some parts of western India ahead of its usual schedule, but its progress has stalled since May 29, according to an IMD chart that tracked the monsoon's progress. The monsoon has gained the required momentum, and heavy rainfall is likely over west coast, central and some parts of north India in next ten days, which will significantly bring down temperatures, another weather official said. India has received 31% lower rainfall than average in the first half of June, but in the second half the country is set to receive above average rainfall, the official said. Monsoon rains are set to progress quickly in the next few days and could cover most parts of the country before the end of June, the official said. Summer rains usually fall in Kerala around June 1 before spreading nationwide by mid-July, allowing farmers to plant crops such as rice, corn, cotton, soybeans and sugarcane.

Palm Springs experiences hottest day of 2025; will the city see cooler weather this week?
The temperature in Palm Springs soared to 117 degrees Sunday afternoon, giving the city its hottest day of the year so far, according to National Weather Service data. While that temperature was enough to make Sunday the hottest day of 2025, the high fell a few degrees shy of the record high for June 15. NWS meteorologist Sam Zuber said the record high temperature of 120 degrees at Palm Springs International Airport was set in 2021. That temperature was only four degrees shy of the city's all-time high of 124 degrees, which was set last year on Independence Day. Prior to Sunday, the highest temperature so far in June had been 110 degrees set twice on June 8 and June 9. The average high temperature for June 15 is 105 degrees but will climb to 107 degrees by the end of the month. Zuber said the unseasonable heat is a result of a large area of high pressure settled over the southwestern United States and stretching from California to the four corners region. As if the heat wasn't oppressive enough, another familiar weather challenge was also brewing across the Coachella Valley. South Coast AQMD issued an air quality alert Sunday afternoon that warned that strong winds could result in blowing dust and unhealthy air quality through 8 a.m. on Tuesday. The warning stated that gusts of up to 50 mph are expected in the wind-prone San Gorgonio Pass, while gusts of 25 to 35 mph are expected in both Palm Springs and Indio although some areas in between were expected to see lighter winds. While gusts of above 40 mph had already been recorded at Whitewater on Sunday afternoon, the winds were only just starting to pick up in most of the rest of the valley. South Coast AQMD's online air quality map showed the air in the vast majority of the valley as rated 'moderate' as of around 4 p.m. Sunday. Desert residents can expect only limited relief in the coming days, Zuber said, with temperatures of above 110 degrees expected on Monday and then again on Wednesday before things gradually cool going into next weekend. Highs of 104 and 102 degrees are expected in Palm Springs next Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Paul Albani-Burgio covers growth, development and business in the Coachella Valley.
