Delmarva is heading into a stretch of summer-like heat beginning today, with highs climbing into the low to mid 90s inland and cooler 70s and 80s at the beaches. Near-record temperatures are possible through Wednesday before a cold front brings showers, storms and more seasonable air late week.

Delmarva will enjoy a mostly sunny and pleasant Friday with highs in the upper 60s to low 70s before a warming trend takes hold this weekend. Temperatures will climb into the upper 70s and low 80s Saturday, then surge into the mid 80s to low 90s from Sunday through the middle of next week. Mostly dry weather is expected through the next several days, though isolated showers or storms are possible Sunday and a better chance of showers and thunderstorms arrives late Wednesday into Thursday as a cold front brings temperatures closer to normal.

Delmarva’s early taste of summer continues today as temperatures climb into the upper 80s to low 90s under mostly sunny skies. After Georgetown tied its record high of 87 yesterday, more record highs are possible today with southwest winds at 10 to 15 mph. The warmth holds through Thursday before a weak front slips through late Thursday night, followed by a cooler but still mild Friday and Saturday. A stronger cold front arrives Sunday with scattered showers and thunderstorms possible late, then much cooler air settles in early next week with highs dropping into the 50s and 60s and even a chance for frost by Tuesday morning.

A stalled front keeps Delmarva dreary and foggy today, with the coolest, foggiest weather hugging the coast while inland areas briefly break into sunshine and warmer temperatures. Fog and drizzle linger into tonight and early Friday, then a backdoor cold front reinforces cooler, cloudier conditions. The pattern flips this weekend as warmer air pushes back in, turning noticeably milder Sunday and especially early next week with a few chances for showers and even a thunderstorm.
