Temperatures will be on the mild side as rain looms through midweek.
It could get heavy at times from Tuesday night into Wednesday, with a good chance to set a new yearly rain record for Philadelphia.
With 56.14 inches already in the books, less than a third of an inch would eclipse the current mark of 56.45 inches set in 1996.
Given the recent dry spell - just a 20th of an inch so far this month - no flooding is expected, even if an inch of rain falls, said meteorologist Dean Iovino of the National Weather Service in Mount Holly.
