Unsettled Weather Headed Our Way Midweek
By Geoff Bansen
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Monday, June 2 will be another great day. After a cool start, highs will quickly warm in the lower 80s, under abundant sunshine. The UV index will be high again today, so if you were lucky enough to have a 3-day weekend and you are heading down to the shore, make sure to apply generous amounts of sunblock! Highs at coastal beaches will be in the low to mid 70s. Water temperatures are still in the low 60s.
