Delmarva gets the pick of the week today as high pressure brings wall-to-wall sunshine, warm temperatures and slightly lower humidity. Conditions turn more unsettled Thursday as a stronger cold front approaches, bringing the potential for multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms, locally heavy rainfall and damaging wind gusts. Additional showers and storms may remain possible through the weekend before high pressure attempts to return next week.

High pressure will bring dry, warm and more comfortable weather from early Tuesday through early Wednesday.

Delmarva will start the week with partly cloudy skies and highs in the mid to upper 80s. A cold front crossing the Peninsula Monday afternoon and evening could spark scattered showers and thunderstorms, with locally heavy rain possible. Tuesday turns less humid before another front brings a renewed chance for storms Wednesday night into Thursday.

A beautiful Thursday is ahead across Delmarva with hazy sunshine, highs in the upper 80s to low 90s and a refreshing sea breeze developing at the beaches. A cold front will continue pushing south through Friday, opening the door to cooler and less humid weather for Saturday and the first half of Sunday. Showers and thunderstorms return to the forecast Sunday afternoon into Monday, while spotty minor tidal flooding is possible during Thursday evening’s high tide along portions of the Delaware coast and Delaware Bay.
