Scattered showers, thunderstorms expected Monday in Philadelphia region. Here's the weather forecast.
Clouds will increase overnight, and there's a chance for some patchy light fog or mist to develop across the Philadelphia area. A stalled front lifts north as a warm front Monday, placing the region into a warmer, more unstable air mass. Mostly sunny skies will allow temperatures to rise into the upper 80s to near 90, with heat indices approaching 94–95 degrees. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected during the afternoon, driven by increased instability and a strengthening mid-level flow. While severe weather potential is limited by marginal shear, a few stronger storms with damaging wind gusts or localized flash flooding are possible. The Storm Prediction Center has issued a marginal risk (1/5) for severe storms. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue Monday night as the warm front pushes north. Lows will range from the upper 60s to mid-70s. CBS News Philadelphia Tuesday brings a more active setup. The region will be fully in the warm sector with highs in the low 80s to low 90s and dew points in the 70s — supporting strong instability. A strengthening upper-level trough will push a cold front through the area later in the day. If morning clouds and convection clear in time, conditions will support strong to severe storms. The Storm Prediction Center has placed most of the region in a slight risk (2/5) for severe thunderstorms, with damaging wind gusts as the main threat. Alongside the severe threat, there's also a risk for localized flash flooding. PWAT values between 2.0–2.5 inches and deep warm cloud layers will support heavy rainfall rates, especially if storms train over the same area. Delmarva is under a slight risk (2/4) for excessive rainfall, with a marginal risk (1/4) elsewhere. CBS News Philadelphia The cold front slows as it moves through Tuesday night, with lingering showers possible through Wednesday morning, especially near coastal areas. Lows Tuesday night will be in the 60s to low 70s. An upper-level trough lingers over the Northeast into the weekend. While Wednesday and Thursday will be warm, humidity will drop slightly behind the front. Most of Wednesday looks dry, with only a slight chance for showers Thursday near and northwest of I-78 as a weak front moves through. Friday and Saturday look pleasant. High pressure will settle over the region with mostly sunny skies, highs in the 80s, and comfortable dew points in the low to mid 60s. It's shaping up to be a nice holiday weekend. Here's your 7-day forecast: CBS News Philadelphia Monday: Scattered p.m. storms. High 88, Low 73. Tuesday: NEXT Weather Alert for storms. High 89, Low 76. Wednesday: Sun, few clouds. High 88, Low 72.

Delta Airlines Cancels Almost 1,000 Flights
The major storm that brought Atlanta's airport to a standstill hit one major airline especially hard. Delta airlines cancelled almost 1,000 flights, largely due to the weather issues in Atlanta, according to View From the Wing. What are the numbers? FlightAware has Delta's June 28 cancellation figure at 581 flights. On June 27, 366 Delta flights were cancelled, according to that site, which noted that only 25 flights were cancelled on June 26, but more than 1,100 were delayed. According to FlightAware, Delta had only 59 cancelled flights on June 29, although 775 flights were delayed. "The storm resulted in hundreds of system cancellations across the system for Saturday. Delta expects additional delays and cancellations as teams work to safely reset aircraft and reposition flight crews," Delta wrote in a June 28 statement. "Teams across Delta are hard at work to take care of customers and recover our operation following a major weather event at our Atlanta hub June 27," Delta wrote. "Thunderstorms developed over the evening, bringing rain, lightning, hail and hazardous wind. The storm caused an evacuation and temporary power loss at the ATL air traffic control tower," Delta wrote. "The hail led to required inspections for over 100 aircraft, which our teams completed by Saturday morning. We expect continued disruption this weekend as we recover safely and as quickly as possible." View From the Wing described an internal Delta document posted on Bluesky by "aviation watchdog" @JonNYC. The document says that Delta will 'pay for accommodations, vouchers, rental car reimbursement,' and more for customers 'whose travel has been impacted by this event.' 'Thank you for your support as we recover our operation following a major weather event in ATL,' the document says. 'You should begin offering hotel, meal, and transportation vouchers immediately. While this weather disruption was not within our control, we are going to use situational flexibility and take care of our customers.'Delta Airlines Cancels Almost 1,000 Flights first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 29, 2025
