Light jackets will be needed in the morning Friday in the Philadelphia region, and temps will be mild in the afternoon. But make sure to keep the umbrella nearby as scattered showers are expected between roughly 2 p.m. and 9 p.m. around the area.
It will not be raining the whole time, but be prepared.
NEXT big weather change
Friday starts out warm and dry, possibly some early sunshine, and a chance to hit 60, depending on when showers arrive. We will likely see a few scattered showers by the time of the Friday afternoon ride home from school or the evening commute, but some steadier rain Saturday afternoon, so you’ll unfortunately need the umbrellas handy for any outdoor plans.

Total rainfall is generally around 1 inch, so a good rain, but widespread flooding is unlikely.
As of now, it’s looking like the rain will clear in time for the Eagles’ wild-card game on Sunday, though early tailgaters might have a few showers to contend with. Temperatures will be dropping throughout the day, and it will turn quite windy, so if you have tickets, be sure to bundle!
