Today stays warm and sunny across Delmarva, but temperatures step down from yesterday’s record highs. Cooler air arrives near the coast Saturday as a backdoor front pushes in, while inland areas stay milder. Minor tidal flooding is expected along the Delaware coast and Delaware Bay Saturday evening into Saturday night, followed by showers, a few thunderstorms, and a sharp cool down late Saturday night into Sunday.

After morning rain temperatures bounce back nicely this afternoon into the 50s to near 60 across Delmarva with a mix of sun and clouds. A coastal storm brings rain, snow, and wind late in the weekend.
