Questions people ask

How accurate is this forecast?

It is the official National Weather Service forecast for Philadelphia. The big number is the latest reading from the nearest weather station when one is available. Forecasts for the next day or two are usually reliable; beyond five days, treat them as a rough guide.

What does "chance of rain" mean?

A 40% chance means that on days like this, it rains somewhere in the area about 4 times out of 10. It is not a promise either way. The blue marks under the hourly chart are that chance, hour by hour.

How are sunrise and sunset worked out?

They are calculated for the center of Philadelphia, in that city's time zone. They are usually within a couple of minutes of the published times.
