Hot, mostly sunny Thursday in Philadelphia region, tracking a chance of weekend rain. See the weather forecast
After a high on Wednesday of 88 degrees in the Philadelphia area, which was the hottest temp so far in 2025 — actually the hottest since Aug. 28, 2024 (280 days ago) — we are expecting the mercury to rise even higher on Thursday, likely reaching the 90 degrees in many spots, sans the shore locations. Mostly sunny skies will be the rule with moderate air quality likely. CBS News Philadelphia Friday brings a very slight cooldown, with highs in the upper 80s and increasing clouds as the day progresses, but the shower activity looks to remain low at roughly 20%. Saturday, however, turns a bit unsettled: Expect a mix of clouds and sun, a drop in temperatures, and a chance of showers and thunderstorms. It's a good day to have an indoor backup plan or keep an eye on the radar if you're heading out. Sunday looks a bit iffy as models are still uncertain as to whether or not a front will stall or head south. If it stalls we'll likely see showers; if it doesn't, the day should be partly cloudy and in the 70s. We are back to the 80s beginning early next week with some off-and-on showers and storms. Here's your 7-day forecast: CBS News Philadelphia Thursday: Hot, humid. High 90. Low 64. Friday: P.m. shower. High 88. Low 66. Saturday: Shower/storm. High of 79, Low of 66. Sunday: Mostly sunny.

Sunny Memorial Day in Philadelphia, tracking mid-week rain. See the full weather forecast.
The weather Sunday was better than Saturday in the Philadelphia area, with a bit more sunshine and highs in the 60s to near 70 in many spots, including the shore. Despite the increase in temperatures, we were almost 20 degrees cooler than this time last year when we hit a steamy 88! Next up: Memorial Day. If you're thinking about taking a dip in the ocean, brace yourself — the water is cold, sitting in the low 50s. That persistent northwest wind we've had all week has pushed the warmer surface water away from the coast, causing an upwelling of chilly water. We'll need a shift to a south or southeast wind to bring the warmer stuff back in. CBS News Philadelphia That stubborn upper-level low that kept us soggy all week is finally moving out of New England, so our weather will keep improving right through Memorial Day evening. As we take time to remember those who gave everything for our country, we should be looking at nice skies and near-average temperatures. CBS News Philadelphia Clouds increase late Monday as the next storm system brushes by to our south, bringing a few showers to Delaware and parts of South Jersey. Tuesday stays warm with highs in the upper 70s, but skies turn mostly cloudy. Then get ready for a stretch of wet weather — rain moves in Wednesday and lingers through the end of the week. Temps drop to the mid-60s Wednesday but rebound into the upper 70s by Friday. Friday could give us a break from any major rain, before showers return for the first half of the upcoming weekend. 7-day forecast CBS News Philadelphia Monday: High of 75, low of 52. Mostly sunny. Tuesday: High of 77, low of 53. Mostly cloudy. Wednesday: High of 62, low of 57. Scattered showers. Thursday: High of 75, low of 59. Scattered showers. Friday: High of 82, low of 62. Partly cloudy.
