Delmarva enters a stretch of mild, mostly dry weather beginning Wednesday night, thanks to high pressure settling to the north and northeast. Although a weak coastal low may trigger a few isolated showers later this week, most areas will remain dry with gradually warming temperatures. Humidity will increase early next week, bringing hot conditions and a slight chance of showers and storms.
Sussex County will experience scattered showers Saturday, improving conditions Sunday, and pleasant but cool weather for Memorial Day.
High pressure brings warm, dry weather to Delmarva on Mother’s Day, with highs in the low 80s inland, 70s at the coast. Clouds and rain chances increase Monday night through Wednesday as a Gulf Coast low moves in, followed by a warmer, unsettled end to the week.
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.
Today will bring warm temperatures and dry conditions to the Delmarva region as a high-pressure system keeps rain at bay. However, a shift in weather is expected as the weekend approaches, with showers and thunderstorms becoming more likely, particularly on Sunday. Dangerous rip currents and surf will develop this weekend. A cooler, less humid air mass will arrive early next week, bringing relief after the weekend's unsettled weather.
