Thats going to be the trend over the next several days as we are in the sunshine with temperatures getting close to average. Now, not a bad evening right now. Were in the mid to upper 30s currently from our weather watchers. We have some clouds over the region which help team keep temperatures warmer tonight.

Live look at the snowboard park. Riders out there enjoying a nice night. Temperatures just below 30 up there but fresh snow to deal with. Looks like they have a few more weeks of some nice conditions at jack frost and big boulder. All right, lets talk about the daylight length. Thats going to change as we head into Daylight Saving time. Now, our sunset tonight was at 5 59 but tomorrow it will set at 7 oclock as we turn those clocks ahead one hour. And then by april 1st were talking about our sunset coming in at 7 25 as were gaining about two minutes of daylight each day. So, signs of spring on the way and we certainly will be getting warmer as the suns really going to help things out. We go back to january earlier in the wintertime the suns angle is very low in the sky it has a lot of atmosphere to go through so its not able to heat the surface up but now the sun is getting higher and higher in the sky so its more of a direct ray down to the surface so thats why were able to heat up pretty good. And our sun currently is equivalent to early october so you can actually get sun burned outside if youre out there long enough. 39 degrees our current temperature at the airport, 30 up in mount pocono, 40 degrees still out in lancaster. Theres nothing terribly cold across the midatlantic and northeast. So thats a sign of the warmer air moving in from the south and west. Little weak cold front will slide through overnight just producing a few clouds, maybe a stray flurry or sprinkle to the north and west. This front not ushering in a cold air mass as temperatures remain in the mid 40s for the afternoon high on sunday under partly sunny skies. Get outside and enjoy the nice weather. Into monday we go, High Pressure right on top of us. Our skies should go mostly sunny. Temperatures again mid maybe upper 40s getting close to 50 and then on tuesday were going to watch a little disturbance to our south. May bring a few showers in here late tuesday especially south of the city. Again our High Temperatures are running here average in the upper 40s. So we have a sign of a bit of a pattern change coming on. Jet stream a little bit of a trough just to the north of us still keeping the very cold air far enough north into canada. Well watch what happens over the next few days as that jet stream trough slowly lifts northward. That allows warmer air to move in from the south. By next week we have a shot at reaching mid50s for High Temperatures. Finally well go back above average. Forecast tomorrow, sky coverwise just clouds around during the morning hours. Well keep it dry. More sunshine through the afternoon for your sunday. Well go mostly sunny on monday afternoon. Another nice day with temperatures in the upper 40s. Tuesday the clouds will thicken back up through the afternoon as that storm system moves in from the south. Again, later in the day and at night there could be some rain showers to deal with. As far as the temperatures go nothing really cold tonight. Down into the 20s to around 30 degrees by early on sunday morning into the afternoon resurging back into the 40s. And that will be the trend into monday and tuesday. So your overnight forecast, partly cloudy skies, not quite as cold, low for the city around 30 degrees, little bit colder in some of those suburbs. A milder day on sunday, partly sunny skies, up to 46 for the afternoon high. It will be a breeze out of the west at about 10 to 15 miles per hour. Again here we go the sevenday forecast dont forget to turn the clocks ahead one hour tonight, 46 for the high with sunshine zone were up to 48 on monday and tuesday. Again there could be a few showers around later on tuesday. Wednesday thats going to be the warmest day. 55 degrees for the afternoon high with some sunshine and well keep it in the 40s by the end of next week could be dealing with more rain coming in later friday into saturday.
