Today across Delmarva, a powerful cold front is bringing a stunning turnaround in the weather, with temperatures crashing 40 to 50 degrees from yesterday’s record-breaking warmth. Rain showers will mix with and briefly change to wet snow late this afternoon for a few hours, with only a light coating possible on grassy and elevated surfaces while roads stay mostly wet. Gusty winds of 30 to 40 mph will add to the chill, sending wind chills into the upper 20s and low 30s by late day.

A strong cold front will turn late-night rain into a chilly, wind-whipped Thursday at the Sussex County beaches and in Ocean City, with only a brief chance for wet snow before precipitation ends.

A cold and blustery Saturday kicks off the weekend on Delmarva, with highs barely reaching 40 degrees and wind chills staying in the 20s. High pressure ensures dry conditions through Saturday night, but a weak disturbance Sunday night may bring rain or snow showers to the region. A stronger system midweek could deliver possibly snow showers midweek.
