Discussion

Normal high temperatures for today at Philly Airport (PHL) are right at 50 degrees and we'll climb well above that by this afternoon, but then the passage of a strong cold front in the overnight hours will bring in much colder air for Tuesday. Rain showers are likely this afternoon and early evening as the cold front approaches, but then as colder air moves into the region, a wintry mix of rain, sleet and/or snow is likely late tonight and on Tuesday. Temperatures will then slowly climb tomorrow night as the cold front returns to the region as a warm front, and it'll turn milder again on Wednesday only to see a fall back on Thursday and Friday following the passage of another cold front. In fact, there may be a repeat performance of a wintry mix on Friday as once again this next cold front attempts to push back to the north as a warm front. One final note, temperatures for the month of November ended below normal at PHL by 2.4 degrees.
