PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Well, here we go! We made it through a few days of heavy rain, strong storms and very humid air. Now we will flip the switch and will likely need to grab the sweatshirts when heading outdoors the next few mornings as a cold front brings in much cooler and drier air from the north. 

Temperatures in the Philadelphia region Tuesday: 63 at 7 a.m., 71 at 1 p.m., 70 at 7 p.m.

Highs Tuesday through Thursday will stay in the 70s, with morning lows Wednesday through Friday in the 50s, maybe even upper 40s in the Poconos. It is a crisp and bright stretch of sunshine that will last right into the weekend.

Fear not, summer lovers! The weekend warms up some, back to seasonable highs in the mid to upper 80s, followed by some 90s for a few days next week.

As for showers and storms, Mother Nature will be kind to us, keeping us dry for the foreseeable future with high pressure dominating our area.

In case you missed it Monday night due to clouds, the supermoon blue moon will be 99% full Tuesday night, and the clear, dry air should make for some spectacular viewing when the moon rises in the eastern sky at 8:38 p.m.
