High pressure is drifting off to the northeast and an easterly surface wind flow will bring moisture and cloudiness to the Philadelphia area over the weekend. Areas to our east and the Jersey shore will have more clouds and areas to the west will have brighter skies. The models often have a tough time predicting the amount of cloudiness in the summer, so confidence in this forecast is a bit lower than past weeks.
No precipitation is expected.
Sat 7/19: Cloudy in the morning, some brightening skies during the afternoon. High 83.
Sun 7/20: Cloudy in the morning, some sun possible in the afternoon. High 82.
The models have already changed since yesterday. For Sunday, the easterly flow moves around to a southerly flow with less cloudiness. High pressure will nose down from the northeast, keeping us dry and reducing the cloudiness that had been expected.
Overall, a nicer weekend weather-wise is expected.
