The final day of summer is upon us, and it looks like we’ll wrap up the season on a pretty good note.

While there will be some cloud cover around the region early Sunday, the sun should break through the clouds and give way to partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies through the second half of our Sunday.

As a result of the cloud cover earlier on in the day, however, temperatures will be a little cooler than Saturday with highs in the middle 70s. The high temperature in Philadelphia on Saturday was 79 degrees.

Fall officially arrives at 2:19 p.m. on Monday and high temperatures will be in the upper 70s with partly cloudy skies. Not quite sweater and boot weather yet.

Summer tries to crash the first full day of fall on Tuesday with highs in the low-to-mid 80s.

Late in the day on Tuesday, showers and storms ahead of an approaching cold front look to move into the area. Currently, there doesn’t appear to be an obvious threat of severe weather; however, there could be a few stronger wind gusts associated with some of the heavier rainfall.

The cold front then looks to stall out just south of our region through the second half of the week. This will likely keep the chance for stray showers around on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday with partly cloudy skies and a return to the 70s on all three days.

We need rain, but any showers this week will not be enough to water the lawn or plants. We are already experiencing abnormally dry conditions across the region, with below-average rainfall this month.
