Accu-Reggie 7 Day Forecast (December 7 – December 13)


  Overall, this fall has been warmer and drier than average. We are close to turning the books on fall, so let’s talk about winter.

  The weather pattern is changing in a BIG way! Arctic air is about to be unleashed from coast to coast so get ready for cold shots of air starting this week! Storms will continue to attack the area once or twice a week, so frequent umbrella use and shoveling will be in order — yes it’s going to snow in Philly soon (maybe even this week)! Expect dramatic temperature changes. Storms that cut to our west will raise temperatures into the 50s only to crash them back into 20s and 30s the following day.

  For this week, cold air arrives for the weekend setting us up for our first chance for snow on Sunday. I think this is a snow/sleet to rain type of situation for the city with little accumulation. However, much can change between now and then.

On Wednesday, morning rain gives way to sunshine and progressively colder conditions as the Tuesday rain storm moves away. Wednesday night will be freezing for everyone!

  Thursday features the advancement of cold infiltration into the region. Temperatures will squeak above 40, but most of the day will be in the 30s. Winter is here!

  Friday and Saturday are both COLD with temperatures in the 30s for high temperatures and middle 20s at night. The suburbs will be in the teens at night! BRRrrrrrrr! Get the heavy winter jacket out!

Temperatures ease back into the 40s on Sunday, but a storm system approaches from the west. This storm could bring rain or snow Sunday evening and night. I will update the forecast as we get closer but for now plan for some sloppy weather. Best chances for accumulation will be in the northern and western suburbs of the city.

  Monday could feature a lingering rain or snow shower as the storm heads out of here. One thing we know is that it will be cold again behind the storm with plenty of sunshine on Tuesday.

   The weather winner of the week is Thursday; the weather loser is Sunday.
