PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- With the return of sunshine on Thursday, the temps will head into the 80s.

THURSDAY: Partly sunny and less humid with a comfortable north wind. High of 84. The ocean remains churned up with waves of 3-4 feet. The rip current risk is forecast to drop to moderate. Minor tidal flooding at the times of high tide will continue into Friday.
