Philadelphia weather: Spring showers possible ahead of Saturday's summer-like warmup

A weekend warmup is on the way with temperatures expected to reach about 80 degrees in the Delaware Valley on Saturday. 

With those summer-like conditions comes a chance of rain on Sunday, as you may expect from a typical spring weekend. 

Here’s a look at the forecast over the next few days. 

Timeline:

Saturday will be breezy and summer-like with high temperatures topping out at about 80 degrees. 

By Sunday, conditions cool off slightly as clouds move in. Highs are still expected to reach into the mid-70s before we could see some late showers move in. 

What's next:

Come Monday, even more rain may be on the way, particularly as showers may impact your afternoon. A thunderstorm is even possible in some spots. Monday will still be warm with highs in the mid-70s. 

By Tuesday we cool back down into the 50s for a couple of days to start off April! 

Phillies weather:

The weather system expected to impact the area Monday, so far, looks like it could affect first pitch of the Philadelphia Phillies home opener. There could even be a thunderstorm. 

If you're planning on heading to the ballpark, be sure to keep an eye on the FOX 29 Weather Authority as the forecast develops.
