Delmarva will dry out this afternoon after morning showers, but rainfall totals were too light to make a meaningful dent in the ongoing severe drought. Breezy northwest winds and highs in the 60s will give way to a pleasant Friday, followed by a warmer, mostly dry weekend. By early next week, temperatures could climb into the upper 80s and low 90s before a cold front brings the next chance for storms around the middle of next week.

A cool and breezy Tuesday is ahead across Delmarva with afternoon highs in the mid 50s and northwest wind gusts of 30 to 35 mph. The combination of dry air and gusty winds will create an elevated risk for fire spread, though recent rainfall may help limit the overall threat. Colder air settles in tonight and lingers through Thursday morning, bringing freeze and frost concerns away from the immediate coast. After the chilly stretch, temperatures rebound quickly late week, with 70s returning by Friday and 80s possible early next week.
Sunday afternoon brings sunshine, cool temperatures, and breezy west winds across Delmarva. High pressure will dominate the region into midweek, leading to gradually warmer days and a potential return of summer heat by Thursday.
Easter Sunday afternoon brings dry and breezy conditions to Delmarva as high pressure builds in. The region stays seasonably cool through Tuesday with brief cloud cover and a pair of cold fronts. Dry and warmer weather follows midweek before another system increases rain chances late Friday into Saturday.
