Winds should come from the northwest at 10 to 15 mph, helping bring in a drier and more comfortable air mass. No widespread rain is expected during the day Wednesday.

Wednesday night should remain mostly clear and mild, with temperatures falling into the lower to mid-60s. Winds are expected to shift to the southwest at around 5 to 10 mph.

By Thursday morning, Sussex County should start the day mostly sunny and warmer. Temperatures are expected to rise quickly through the morning, with highs later Thursday likely reaching the upper 80s.
