It's finally starting to feel a little bit like winter.
After temperatures soared into the mid to upper 60s Saturday afternoon, temperatures dropped and a cold rain hit Philadelphia Saturday night.
The chillier weather is supposed to continue throughout the week, starting with gusty conditions. The National Weather Service has issued a Wind Advisory for the region for Sunday into Sunday night.
The winds are expected to continue into Tuesday, with some gusts Sunday as powerful as 46 mph.
Starting Sunday into this coming Saturday, high temperatures aren't expected to surpass the mid 50s, while lows are expected to be in the low to high 30s.
There's also a chance of showers on Sunday, Wednesday and Thanksgiving. While Philly is supposed to get the liquid stuff, other parts of Pennsylvania have already gotten or are expected to get a sprinkling of white powder.
NBC10 reports that a rain and snow mix fell Saturday night in parts of Berks, Lehigh, Bucks and Montgomery counties. Snow showers are predicted for the Poconos Sunday night into Monday morning.
