🌤️ Delmarva Weather Update — 2026-05-28
Today's Weather Story: A few morning showers across the lower Eastern Shore give way to sun-dominated skies peninsula-wide as drier air filters in on a northwest breeze. Highs settle into the upper 70s to low 80s, warmest down at the Delaware beaches. It's a clean, comfortable late-May day once that early shower chance scoots offshore.

Severe Weather Outlook: SPC has no categorical severe risk over Delmarva for today or tomorrow — no Marginal, no Slight, nothing. WPC's excessive rainfall concerns are aimed elsewhere; no Delmarva-specific rainfall risk is flagged. In short, severe weather and flooding are not in today's conversation here.
Why This Setup: A passing upper-level disturbance is wringing out the last of the moisture across the lower Shore this morning before high pressure and a drier northwest flow take command. With dry air in place and a touch of breeze, fire weather sensitivity stays slightly elevated even as the overall pattern turns benign.
Looking Ahead: Expect a quiet, dry stretch to close the week and carry into the weekend, with another system possible later on bringing the next shower chances. Temperatures hold near or just above seasonal norms.
Bottom Line: A bright, breezy, near-perfect late-spring day — get outside, but keep open flames in check with the dry air around.
