Skies are clear and we’re off to a chilly start Thursday morning, running a few degrees cooler than Wednesday.
Clear skies set us up for another gorgeous sunny day, with temperatures climbing to near 70° during the afternoon in Philadelphia.
The nor’easter spinning offshore has now become subtropical storm Josephine, but that storm is pulling away from the coast and we’ll actually see less wind Thursday as a result.
A pleasant breeze around 20 mph for Philadelphia, with 25 mph gusts at the shore. Those winds finally ease as high pressure settles in, bringing chillier conditions for Friday and into the weekend, with plenty of sunshine but a high of just 62° Friday afternoon.
Frost is looking likely on two consecutive mornings, Friday night into Saturday morning and again Saturday night into Sunday morning.
Some of our colder neighborhoods north and west could see freezing temperatures both mornings, so time to bring those tender plants inside. Afternoons will be beautiful with sunny skies, with a high of 64° Saturday and a lovely 68° Sunday.
Then it’s back to the 70s next Monday and Tuesday as our remarkable sunny streak rolls right on through next week.
