High humidity around Philadelphia Wednesday, scattered storms fire up this afternoon and evening
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- After a few days of hot temps and sunshine, our next weather maker moves into the region Wednesday.
The day starts out cloudy with some areas of fog and then turns sunny from about 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. Scattered showers and storms start to fire up in the afternoon and evening, and while this system doesn't look like it'll produce any severe weather, localized downpours are possible because of the high humidity.
A stray shower could possibly impact Wednesday night's Phillies game at Citizens Bank Park as well. First pitch is scheduled for 4:05 p.m.
Overnight, a more organized system will cross the Delaware Valley that could bring with it a few overnight rumbles of thunder and heavier rain.
Thursday's shaping up to be a bit drier but even more humid, with a mix of sun and clouds and another chance for a stray storms in the afternoon and evening.
A cold front set to move through Thursday night will help drop those high dew points and clear things out for Friday, though a few clouds and sprinkles could pop up in the Poconos.
Weekend outlook
The weekend is trending on the drier and brighter side at this point thanks to that lower humidity.
There's still a chance for a stray shower Sunday night, but overall the weekend in Philadelphia looks to be sunny and warm with highs in the upper 70s and low 80s.
