Saturday is the better day to get outside, as the chance for rain is fairly low. Not zero, but a few passing showers are about all we expect.
In addition, the temps will be in the low 80s, likely breaking the record high so shorts and t-shirts will be the rule.
Have your umbrella ready on Easter as a cold front will move through the area bringing widespread showers to the region.

The rollercoaster ride continues with another surge of warmth that will bring temps back to record-breaking temps in the low 80s on Saturday.
By Easter Sunday another cold front will approach the region with a line of showers and storms developing ahead of it. Right now, it looks like conditions may start out dry Sunday morning with rain arriving by midday. The rain will start to clear out Sunday evening as the front moves through and begins to usher in drier, but cooler temperatures for next week. Â

Next week we’ll be back to more normal highs for this time of year which is upper 50s. It’ll be quieter as well, with mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies and although you may be tempted to start planting this weekend you may want to hold off as freezing temps are expected by the middle of the week.
While the average last freeze is March 30, Philadelphia has had a freezing temp as late as May 11.
