Today brings a pleasant and mild start to the week across Delmarva with mostly cloudy skies, breezy southwest winds, and highs near 80 inland, while beach communities stay in the mid to upper 70s. A weak disturbance could spark an isolated light shower, mainly north and west of the peninsula. Warmer air then builds in through midweek and into the weekend, sending temperatures 15 to 30 degrees above average with some inland spots potentially reaching 90 degrees for the first time this year.

Delmarva dries out this afternoon after morning showers, with partly sunny skies, gusty southwest winds, and highs in the upper 40s to near 50. Tonight stays above freezing in the mid to upper 30s. A weak system brings a chance for light showers Thursday late afternoon through Thursday night, followed by a pleasant, partly cloudy Friday. The weekend looks outstanding, peaking Saturday with sunshine and highs in the upper 50s to near 60, then cooling a bit Sunday behind a backdoor cold front. Early next week bears watching for another system that could bring a wintry mix, but confidence is still low.
