Philadelphia weather: Mild, cloudy weekend ahead for Philadelphia with periods of rain

Weekend plans are all about the timing. Keep your plans, but have a backup, just in case, as showers are expected throughout.

Temperatures will tumble early next week, only reaching the mid 40s Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

What we know:

Overnight severe weather created chaotic and scary situations for residents in Delaware County and Camden County, but that activity has moved on, bringing clouds, chances of showers and cooler temps for the weekend.

Saturday should see showers in the morning as well as late in the afternoon and evening, so there is plenty of dry time to get out and enjoy.

Sunday should see similar conditions, so keep that umbrella handy, though neither day is a washout. Temps will climb to the mid to upper 50s.

Delco severe weather: Straight-line winds confirmed after storms topple trees, power lines

Overnight severe storms blew through the region wreaking havoc across much of the area, including Delaware County, where straight-line winds downed power lines and toppled trees on top of cars.

What's next:

Monday should begin with leftover shower activity from Sunday night, but temperatures drop, only reaching into the mid to upper 40s Monday through Wednesday. Overnight low temperatures Monday and Tuesday may be in the upper 20s to low 30s, so if you have tender vegetation, you should protect that.

Otherwise, make sure you are bundling up.

Temperatures return to a normal range beginning Thursday of next week.
