Storms are coming Wednesday night, and the window to work around them is shorter than it looks. Here's the forecast that matters this week: a genuinely pleasant Tuesday, a sharp turn mid-week, and then a heat surge that carries Philadelphia close to ninety degrees by Monday.
Start with today. Tuesday is the standout day of the week, and that's not a close call.
Wednesday is where the forecast gets serious. An upper-level system is moving in, and storms are expected Wednesday evening.
The back half of the work week settles down. Thursday and Friday stay dry and mostly clear.
Saturday hits eighty-two degrees. Sunday pushes to eighty-seven.
The two things to keep watching: Wednesday storm timing as the system gets closer and confirmed, and whether Monday is actually the heat peak or whether temperatures continue climbing into the following week. Both are still open questions in the current data.
