Good morning, and a warm welcome to you! This is your weather for Saturday, January 13th, 2024, for the City of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia.
Looks like we're in for quite a range of temperatures today. Starting your morning warm with a surprising 59 degrees, which is quite a treat for January. But don't let that fool you; as we move through the day, the temperature will drop to a cool 38 degrees by evening, and when night falls, we're looking at a low of around 36 degrees.
Now, let's talk about what's heading our way. Philly's skies are gonna be partly cloudy today with cloud coverage around 42%, but the real headliner is the rain, and not just a light sprinkle either. We've got heavy intensity rain on the docket, with about three quarters of an inch pouring down. So, if you had plans for a walk by the Schuylkill River or a jaunt through Rittenhouse Square, you might want to swap that for an indoor activityperhaps check out that museum you've been putting off visiting?
With the humidity sitting at 47%, it's not super muggy, but you'll definitely feel the dampness with that rain. And with winds coming in from the south at about 7 miles per hour, gusting up to a brisk 16 miles per hour, it's going to feel a bit blustery, especially when that rain hits. Make sure to grab a sturdy umbrella that can handle those gusts and a waterproof jacket to keep dry.
As the evening rolls in, that temperature dropping to the high 30s means it's time to layer up. The rain might let up a bit, but it's still a good idea to keep that rain gear handy.
So, while it's a wet one out there today, don't let the rain dampen your spirits. There's always something to do in Philly, even indoors. And hey, maybe it's the perfect excuse for a cozy coffee shop visit or a day discovering some of Philadelphia's indoor gems.
