After another week that brought heavy rain and thunderstorms into the Delaware Valley, Independence Day weekend appears on track to offer most of us a break from the stormy weather.
On Thursday, rain and isolated thunderstorms are expected along the Jersey Shore, but Philadelphia will largely stay dry heading into the weekend, according to NBC 10. Although there is a possibility of showers on Saturday, evening fireworks events should be clear of wet weather.
Here is the full weekend weather report from the National Weather Service.
