Another Cloudy, Cool Day on the Way

A back-door cold front that produced cool and cloud conditions yesterday throughout the Philadelphia and New York City metropolitan areas will slowly fall apart by Friday.  However, before conditions improve for the weekend, the end of the week will remain rather cool, cloudy, and unsettled.

Overcast skies with periods of showers can be expected through this evening.  The showers will be capable of heavy downpours leading to localized flash flooding at times.  Winds will be from the east at 5 to 15 mph.  Temperatures will rise into the mid to upper 60's for highs.

Tonight, overcast skies will linger over the region with periods of showers expected.  Winds will slowly veer to the southeast at 5 to 15 mph.  Temperatures will fall into the lower to mid 50's for lows.

Tomorrow, the cold front will retreat to the northeast, however showers and thunderstorms will remain a threat through the region.  Winds will veer to the southwest at 5 to 15 mph.  Temperatures will rise into the lower to  mid 70's for highs.

High pressure will take hold for Saturday on through Monday with clear skies to scattered cloud cover.  With dry conditions in place, temperatures will return to seasonable levels with lows in the mid to upper 50's and highs in the lower to mid 70's.

A series of disturbances will move through the Philadelphia and New York City metropolitan areas on Tuesday and Wednesday with scattered showers and thunderstorms.  Temperatures will range from the lower to mid 60's for lows and upper 70's to lower 80's for highs.
