February 28th, 2011 Forecast

The second impressive storm system in four days will march through the Mid Atlantic and Northeast on Monday, bringing more rain, more wind, the potential for more severe weather, and also more warmth.   February is leaving like a hungry lion as this storm system could bring some impressive rainfall totals by the time we're all done with it tomorrow night.

Tonight:  Clouds will thicken up overnight and some rain is possible towards morning, with steadier rains and higher chances for rain to the north and west of the city.   Tonight's rain is brought to you by a warm front that will lift north through the region tonight and tomorrow morning.   Low temperatures overnight will range from the mid 30's north of the city to the mid 40's in Philadelphia and points south, with temperatures possibly rising towards daybreak south of the city.

Monday:  Becoming mild with occasional rain and thunder through the day, with less of a break possible north of the city and a longer break in the rain to the south.   In between the morning and evening rounds of storms, some sunshine is possible for Philadelphia and points south.  If we get enough sunshine, temperatures will warm above what is forecast here and we could tie or even hit the record high for Monday (68) in the city.  Temperatures will vary a good bit from north to south, with 50's in the Lehigh Valley giving way to the 60's in the Philadelphia metro, with 70 possible in Delaware tomorrow afternoon.   Late in the afternoon, heavy rain and thunder will begin to spread back into the area from the west with the cold front.   We'll update the "how much" and the potential for severe later on this afternoon.


Week Ahead:   Temperatures bounce all over the map over the next seven days, with mild days possible on Wednesday and again this weekend.   Wednesday's warmth will be in advance of a cold front that slips south from Canada and cools us off for Thursday.   Another storm system will march east for Saturday and Sunday, bringing more rain to the region.
