Bucks County off to chilly start on Monday, April 22, but conditions improve later

Bucks County residents will start the work week on Monday, April 22, with a brisk morning, but daylong sun should warm things up nicely by the afternoon.

If you’re getting ready to head out for the day or just want to know what to expect, here’s a look at the forecast from the National Weather Service.

Weather in Bucks County

Temperatures should wind up being a tick or so above average in Bucks County on Monday, said Paul Fitzsimmons, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.

"We're looking at mainly sunny conditions, with high temperatures in the low to mid 60s," Fitzsimmons said. "It will definitely be warmer than what we saw on Sunday."

The seasonal high for the Delaware Valley is roughly 63 degrees.

The National Weather Service's morning forecast alert on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, offered a few additional details about Monday's weather:

"After a mostly cloudy and unseasonably cool day on Sunday, the work-week will start off mostly sunny," read a portion of the National Weather Service's post. "It'll turn out to be a milder day as well, after some very frosty temperatures for much of our region this morning."

Fitzsimmons said the sunny and slightly warm conditions will last at least through Tuesday.

"The warming trend should continue through Tuesday, when it will be fairly sunny, with high temperatures in the mid to upper 60s," Fitzsimmons said. "And then, on Tuesday night into Wednesday is the next chance that we'll see some showers.

"And right now, that doesn't look to be anything significant," Fitzsimmons added. "Wednesday stays fairly mild, then cools off heading into Thursday. Temperatures look to go back up on Friday, into the mid 60s."

According to the National Weather Service's 7-day forecast for Bucks County, there will also be some patchy frost Tuesday morning.

The window for showers on Wednesday is 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., meaning rush hour commuters may have to be extra vigilant Wednesday morning. The weather service is anticipating wind gusts of 35 mph throughout the day on Wednesday.

As things stand, patchy frost is again expected Thursday morning, but otherwise, Thursday is shaping up to be a mostly sunny day with a high near 59 degrees
