Delmarva – There was a slight chance of light rain north of our area overnight, but Delmarva will wake up to mostly clear skies. Temperatures will be in the low 50s to around 60°F. Dry weather is expected to prevail as a high pressure system sits offshore. Winds will be light and will be from the southwest.
Wednesday afternoon:
Sunny skies will continue into the afternoon, with temperatures rising into the mid-70s, warmer than usual for late October. The southwest flow continues, resulting in a calm and comfortable day with low humidity. High pressure keeps precipitation to the north, ensuring dry conditions for Delmarva.
Wednesday night:
Partly cloudy skies are expected as low-level moisture builds up, with the potential for some low-level clouds. Temperatures will remain mild overnight with lows in the low to mid 50s. Winds will be unaffected by the southwest and will contribute to a warm advection pattern ahead of an expected cold front later in the week.
