The National Weather Service in Philadelphia has forecasted an overcast day with 65°F temperatures and a humidity level sitting at 81 percent. According to their latest report, the city should expect showers likely, particularly after 2 p.m. today, with a cloudy sky and highs reaching nearly 71 degrees. East winds will blow at 5 to 10 mph, and there's a 60 percent chance of precipitation. It's predicted that new precipitation amounts will be less than a tenth of an inch.

Tonight's weather will similarly feature showers, mostly before 7 p.m., with continued cloudiness and lows around 66 degrees. The east wind is expected to maintain at around 5 mph. The chance of rain will remain at 60 percent, and the forecast yet again suggests new precipitation amounts to be less than a tenth of an inch.

Heading into tomorrow, there's a possibility of showers and potential thunderstorms popping up after 11 a.m. The day will stay cloudy with a high close to 81 degrees, and a southerly wind moving at a gentle 5 to 10 mph pace. Chances for rain drop somewhat to 30 percent, with new rainfall again largely below a tenth of an inch, unless thunderstorms decide to make their presence known.

Tomorrow evening could bring more showers and thunderstorms, with mostly cloudy conditions and a low hovering around 67 degrees. The wind, shifting from south to calm by nightfall, may also contribute to make conditions ripe for less than a tenth of an inch of rainfall, except where thunderstorms increase those amounts. For those looking ahead to the weekend, showers might lurk with a 30 percent chance both Friday night and Saturday. Overcast skies will likely persist, but the temperatures will stay in the mid-70s.

After a potentially wet start to the weekend, the skies should start to clear up a bit with partly cloudy conditions forecasted for Saturday night, and mostly sunny weather expected for Sunday with highs again near 75. The night should see partly cloudy skies with temperatures dipping slightly to the upper 50s. Early into next week, we're looking at partly sunny days with a chance of showers on Monday night through Tuesday, with temperatures remaining consistent in the low to mid-70s.
