After a springlike Tuesday in Philadelphia, Wednesday will turn stormy before a sharp change to frigid weather Wednesday night into Thursday.
"While a shower or a gusty thunderstorm cannot be ruled out Wednesday afternoon and early evening, the worst rain and gusty winds should hold off until just after the evening rush," said Senior Meteorologist Dave Dombek.
The strongest thunderstorms can contain some damaging winds Wednesday afternoon and evening. If you hear thunder, seek shelter.
Any lingering rain will end as some snow showers later Wednesday night as temperatures plummet below freezing.

The subfreezing air will quickly freeze up any wet or slushy roadways and sidewalks which could make for a slippery Thursday morning commute.
"Car doors and locks may freeze up as the frigid weather moves in," said Dombek.

AccuWeather RealFeel® temperatures will be in the single digits and lower teens throughout the day Thursday.
"The next few days will be like a winter sandwich," said AccuWeather.com Chief Meteorologist Elliot Abrams.
A frigid Thursday will be saddled in-between a pair relatively mild days. Highs will return to the mid 40s on Friday before reaching the upper 50s by Saturday.
