A stalled frontal boundary to our south will advance slowly northward as a warm front as waves of low pressure develop along the boundary, causing rain and showers.

As is often the case in these scenarios, timing of the waves and exact placement of the front varies from model to model and there are divergences in timing and placement of the front as the timeframe goes forward.  Large difference by Sunday.

For today, Friday, we will have cloudy skies and damp conditions.   The GFS and NAM bring showers back into PHL between 4 PM and 7 PM with rain, possibly heavy during the evening hours.

For Saturday, the morning looks to be damp without showers, but with increasing chances of showers in the afternoon and especially by evening.

Sunday is a big unknown- the GFS has the front to our north with high temps near 70.  The NAM has high temps in the mid 50s with the warm front stalled to our south.

Both models have a deep low pressure system bringing rain, possibly heavy, on Monday,

Temperatures still look to return to normal winter temps by New Years Day and even below average temperatures for next weekend possible.  The possible storm for Jan 4-6th timeframe has again disappeared from the latest GFS.
