2 pleasant days and 1 stinker in the forecast this Labor Day Weekend

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- August 2024 ends with partly cloudy skies and seasonable temperatures in the mid-80s around Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware.

As the Philadelphia region gets into Labor Day weekend, two of the days will be pleasant and one will be a stinker. We have two low-end risks of severe weather to get through before Monday, the highlight of the holiday weekend.

A warm front will sweep past Saturday, turning skies partly cloudy and ushering in warmer air in the mid-80s. You're clear to get some morning and afternoon beach time, but maybe no late-night pool parties in the hotel or shorehouse pool.

Overnight, skies turn cloudy as a cold front arrives with isolated showers and storms. There is a low-end damaging wind threat with any storm. Most of the area will stay dry.

A second cold front approaches on Sunday, bringing scattered showers and storms throughout the day.

Skies will be mostly cloudy all day and once again, there is a low-end threat of damaging winds with any storm. Temperatures will remain mild with highs in the low 80s.

Not everyone gets rain or sees a storm Sunday, but it'd be a good idea to keep an umbrella handy.

Monday brings a taste of fall, with mostly sunny skies and much cooler temperatures in the 70s with low humidity.

This weekend if you are taking a dip in the ocean, water temperatures along the Jersey Shore points will be in the low 70s with a low rip current risk.
