Philadelphia weather: Warm-up forecasted for the Delaware Valley, but there's a catch
Weather Authority: Monday morning update
Temperatures on the rise Monday, reaching a high of 36 degrees.
PHILADELPHIA – The Delaware Valley is slated for a much-needed warm-up after rounds of snow and frigid temperatures over the last several days sent the area into a deep freeze.
The thaw out will begin modestly on Monday when high temperatures in Philadelphia and beyond reach above freezing with sunny skies to help the snow melt.
Temperatures on Tuesday will continue to climb into the 40s in most places, but widespread cloud cover will set the tone for incoming rounds of rain.
Most of the Delaware Valley will notice a quick-hitting rush of rain early Wednesday morning, leading to gloomy cloud cover with temperatures above 40 degrees.
More rain will engulf the region Wednesday night and into Thursday morning, with heavy downpours at times in parts of southeastern Pennsylvania and South Jersey.
FOX 29’s Sue Serio forecasts a meaningful jump in temperature during the daylight hours Thursday when highs are expected to hit the mid-50s.
The warming trend will hit its peak on Friday with highs forecasted to hit the low-60s, but another round of rain will likely spoil any chance to enjoy the balmy weather.
Sunshine is expected to return on Saturday with temperatures backpedaling into the low 50s, and more rain is anticipated on Sunday with another dip in temperatures.
The warm-up comes on the heels of a bitterly cold stretch that followed the region’s first significant snowstorm in nearly two years.

DOVER — Following decisive wins in both preliminary legs, Primo Maschio dug deep to head off Lew Not Lou for a 1:52.3 triumph in the $110,000 Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund (DSBF) series championship for 3-year-old male pacers on Thursday, Dec. 18, at Bally’s Dover.
Primo Maschio and driver Trae Porter landed second-over on the first turn behind Shore Not Beach (driven by Pat Berry), who worked to clear early leader Lew Not Lou (Jason Thompson) for the lead at the end of a :27 first quarter. Left uncovered off the first turn, Primo Maschio drove on to assume control of the terms with a circuit to go, and the Badlands Hanover-Primadonna gelding rolled to the half in :55.
Up the backstretch and through the far turn, Primo Maschio faced sustained pressure from Lew Not Lou, who re-emerged from third to force a :28.2 third quarter and pose an even bigger threat off the home turn.
“I was a little worried,” said Porter of Lew Not Lou taking aim at Primo Maschio off the corner. “He got to my saddle pad, but as soon as we got to the top of the stretch, my colt dug in deeper. He’s such a nice horse.”
Primo Maschio kept Lew Not Lou a neck at bay while Shore Not Beach stayed on from the pocket to finish third, just a length shy of the top pair.
Walter Callahan trains Primo Maschio, now a 19-time winner with $414,618 in earnings from 27 career starts, for Forrest Bartlett. As the overwhelming 1-10 favorite, Primo Maschio paid $2.20 to win.
