Overheard today walking down Market Street in Center City, one young woman to her friend: "I wish it would get warm." Don't we all! The heavy, chilly rain across the region has hurt airline schedules all day at PHL, although operations began improving after 3 p.m., according to flightstats.com. The FAA had the airport under a ground delay, meaning the majority of arrivals and departures were running from a few mnutes to three or four hours late. The forecast for tomorrow calls for sun and wind, with a return to more chilly weather -- and a chance for the proverbial "wintry mix" of rain and snow Sunday and Monday. Stay warm.
