Philadelphia. You're going to need two completely different outfits today, and that's not an exaggeration.
Here's what makes Friday a little more interesting than just a temperature story. Northwest winds are running up to fifteen miles per hour throughout the day.
The forty-to-seventy swing is the headline, but it's worth sitting with what that actually means. You're starting the day in conditions that feel genuinely cold.
Now here's where the weekend gets genuinely exciting. Saturday jumps to eighty-three degrees.
Sunday stays warm and sunny, but there's a catch. Humidity starts building through the day.
The bigger picture here is that this weekend is about as close to a gift as Philadelphia gets in spring. Dry conditions straight through Sunday.
Philadelphia. Start Friday in layers, end it in a lighter jacket.
