Georgetown, Delaware, closes November with record-breaking drought conditions as the driest autumn on record adds to an already significant rainfall deficit. November was slightly warmer than average, but a lack of precipitation remains the region's top concern, with rainfall totals nearly 8.5 inches below average for the year. December is forecast to continue the dry trend, further challenging the area.
hoppers across Delmarva should bundle up for Black Friday as brisk, partly cloudy conditions dominate, with highs around 50 degrees. Despite minor rainfall, Georgetown remains in a severe drought with an 8.5-inch yearly rainfall deficit. The weekend ushers in the coldest air of the season, with highs in the upper 30s to low 40s and lows in the 20s. Long-range forecasts suggest little precipitation but the possibility of light snow by midweek.
A prolonged dry spell continues across Delmarva as a warming trend sets in through the weekend and early next week. Today temperatures will reach the mid-to-upper 70s under clear skies, with slightly higher humidity. By early next week, temperatures could approach near-record highs in the low 80s, though coastal areas may remain cooler. While a cold front midweek brings a brief cooldown, significant rainfall remains unlikely, extending the already notable dry streak.
