Philadelphia

Somehow, suddenly, Philadelphia got cool. Rapid change has transformed Center City from the wayward capital of a defunct 'Workshop of the World' to a place teeming with stellar restaurants, comfortable cafes, world-class museums and some stunning architecture - not to mention those pretzels.

Philadelphia Weather


Philadelphia's climate chart would make a hard mountain to climb with icy-cold winters at the start and end of the year and sweaty summers in the middle. Winds from the Atlantic Coastal Plain can be light cool breezes in summer or chilly gales in winter. Rainfall usually hovers around 76mm (3in) a year.
