Delmarva will begin the holiday weekend with raw, breezy, and damp conditions today as spotty showers move across the peninsula. Temperatures will stay in the upper 50s to low 60s with east winds gusting up to 30 mph. A high rip current risk and cold ocean water will make beach and surf conditions dangerous today and tomorrow. Rain becomes steadier Saturday into Saturday night, with beneficial rainfall expected before showers taper Sunday. Memorial Day looks somewhat warmer, but showers may still linger at times.

High pressure moving in from the north will push Hurricane Humberto and Imelda out to sea, bringing sunny skies and seasonable temperatures to Delmarva. Coastal winds and dangerous rip currents, however, remain a concern through the week.

Delmarva will see a seasonably warm weekend as a stationary cold front lingers over the Mid-Atlantic. A few isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible Sunday evening before drier, cooler air settles in early next week. We continue to monitor Hurricane Erin, which could bring rough surf, dangerous rip currents, and minor coastal flooding to the region starting Monday.
