PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — After a muggy and wet day Wednesday (in spots), the pattern continues Thursday with a greater chance for storms during the evening as a front pushes through.

Depending on where the storms line up, pockets will receive 1-2 inches of rain, while others will receive very little. While showers and storms are possible, the threat of severe weather has diminished. The biggest threats with any storm that develops will be heavy rain and flash flooding.     

The best chance for showers and storms will be east and south of Philadelphia, but we can't rule out a stray shower further northwest.
