Philadelphia Weekend Weather Update- Fri PM
Things have changed for Sunday. High pressure will provide a southwesterly flow of very warm (maybe hot) and humid air for Saturday. A frontal boundary approaching on Sunday may cause showers and thunderstorms in the morning and possibly into the afternoon.
Sat 7/25: Mostly sunny, hazy, hot and humid. Chance of a late afternoon or early evening scattered thunderstorm. High 90
Sun 7/26: Cloudy with showers and thunderstorms in the morning. Very warm and humid. High 85.
Solar- Climate Comment- Updated 07-24-09: The visible sun remains spotless. Solar activity remains quiet and solar flux remains low, at 68. We will remain in an climatically cool weather pattern for the summer, as solar flux and total solar irradiance are at extreme lows due to an anomalous nadir in the the sunspot cycle. Continue to expect a cooler than normal summer on average and this pattern will likely extend well into the fall and winter. We may have a record cold fall and winter this year.
