CHESTER COUNTY, PA — Get ready, Chester County! This week’s weather has a little something for everyone—from sunny skies to stormy showers. Here’s what you need to know as you plan your week, so you can hit the outdoors with confidence or keep that umbrella within arm’s reach.
Sunday (Today)
It’s a picture-perfect spring day out there. Expect lots of sunshine with a high near 75°F, accompanied by a light north wind at 5 to 10 mph. It’s the kind of day that practically begs for a picnic or a stroll through your favorite park. Tonight, skies will be partly cloudy, and temperatures will dip to a comfy 53°F. The breeze will calm down, giving you that perfect window-opening weather for some fresh night air.
Monday
The sunny vibes mostly continue. Temperatures will climb slightly to a high of around 77°F, with an east wind transitioning to the south in the afternoon at 5 to 10 mph. Basically, it’s another great day to get outside—but keep your eyes on the clouds as night falls. After 11 p.m., there’s a 40% chance of showers, and some patchy fog could sneak in around 5 a.m. Overnight lows will hover near 59°F, so you might need an extra blanket, just in case.
Tuesday
Grab your raincoat, folks—we’re looking at a wet one. Showers are expected throughout the day, and patchy fog might linger before 8 a.m. The high will be near 69°F, courtesy of a southeast wind blowing at 5 to 15 mph. Rainfall could range from a half to three-quarters of an inch, so don’t be shy about wearing waterproof footwear. The showers continue into Tuesday night, with lows around 59°F and another quarter to half an inch of rain expected. Perfect weather for catching up on your favorite TV series or a good book.
Wednesday
Rain is still the headliner, but now we’re throwing a bit of thunder into the mix. Showers, with a chance of thunderstorms after 2 p.m., will dominate the forecast. Temperatures should peak near 69°F. Bring the rain gear because the chance of precipitation is holding steady at 80%. The evening brings a 50% chance of lingering storms and showers, with lows sticking around 59°F. A dramatic sky may be in store for stargazers, but play it safe and monitor the weather closely.
Thursday
