Severe Weather Outlook: No SPC categorical severe-weather risk is in place for Delmarva today. The SPC does indicate a General Thunderstorms Risk on Sunday for Wilmington, Dover, Lewes, Salisbury, Ocean City, Chincoteague, and Cape Charles, but no WPC excessive-rainfall risk is indicated for Delmarva.
Why This Setup: High pressure and drier air are settling in today, supporting the widespread dry and brighter conditions. An onshore northeast wind helps hold coastal temperatures down, while an approaching front and stalled boundary become more important after today.
Looking Ahead: Warmer, more humid air returns Sunday, with shower and thunderstorm chances becoming more frequent into the middle of next week. Hot conditions are expected during the early to middle part of next week.
Bottom Line: Expect a dry, comfortable Saturday with sunshine prevailing, patchy early fog near Salisbury, and the coolest readings along the beaches.
