It's not going to be the nicest of weeks, at times, but generally mild temperatures will dominate the upcoming weather pattern.
After a pair of record highs last week in Philadelphia, getting to 84 on Tuesday and 89 on Wednesday, another mild week is ahead of us. It will not be as warm as last week (sorry, summer fans) but it will still be mild for the most part around the region through Friday as high temperatures get into the 60s most days, with a couple of chances at 70 between Tuesday and Friday. We have 70 or higher in the forecast for Thursday and Friday at this point, but Tuesday and Wednesday are days when we may also hit that mark. Three different weather features will work through the region this week―the first, a weak system on Monday night and Tuesday, pushes up the East Coast from the South and will bring rain and drizzle to the region. It wouldn't …

A chilled latter half of March kicks off with the chance for more snow...with reinforced chill continuing through the week.
Allow me for a minute to vent about the chilled March we're having this year. Last year's warmth - a rarity of sorts, given that Philly hit 70 a record-tying nine times - is nowhere to be seen. Trees in Center City were blooming on St. Patrick's Day last year, sunshine was bright and dominant, and the region was basking in an early spring that gave way to a rather hot summer. This year? No 70 degree days yet, and only two 60 degree days so far this month. We won't see 60 degree weather for a while...and perhaps not until the very end of the month. The next ten days look chilled from the current perch and odds are we will end up with our second consecutive below average month in temperature. The last time that happened was December …

A spring in our step with warmth early this week will be replaced by a return of late winter chill for the end of the work week and St. Patrick's Day weekend.
Last year, Philadelphia had cracked 70 degrees three times by the middle of this month and enjoyed a 71-degree St. Patrick's Day that had trees flowering in Center City and had the region enjoying what was arguably May in March. Despite the tease of warmth we got over the weekend and will enjoy through Monday, such thoughts of a warm surge on the level of last year should probably be scuttled now. Another slap of crispness awaits us on Tuesday with a cold front, followed by a slow and steady decline in temperatures as colder northwest winds await. Tuesday's front will bring about a half inch or so of rain as it crosses the region, perhaps with one last push towards or just above 60 for highs...although as of now the earlier in the day …

Winter's making a prolonged appearance this week...and it could snow more than once before the week is out.
The incoming cold regime will bring some rather cold temperatures by Philadelphia standards to our region ― highs on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday may not break 30 degrees as we get in the grip of some pretty cold air across the eastern half of the nation. This cold has been largely in the Great Basin so far this month ― parts of Nevada are running more than twenty degrees below normal! Temperatures here won't be that cold, but could go down to ten degrees colder than average over the coming week. Along with the incoming cold, light snow and flurries could cross the region later on Monday with a weak clipper and also on Wednesday with a relatively weak disturbance. Monday's system may be more substantive than Wednesday's but either …
