Delaware Weather 3/8 Midday - Rain Starting 11 AM

Good afternoon. Delaware. I'm Matt Mullins. If you stepped outside this morning, you probably couldn't see much. Dense fog swallowed the I-31 corridor overnight. And it's still clinging on. That fog advisory lifts at 9 A.M. As a warm front pushes through, so visibility improves as the morning rolls on. Behind that front? March decides to skip spring and jump straight to summer. Northern Delaware hits 70 degrees this afternoon. Central Delaware climbs to 70 as well. Southern Delaware stays cooler at 61, thanks to that ocean breeze keeping things in check. But here's the twist — a cold front barrels through with showers and a few thunderstorms. Southern Delaware sees the highest rain chance, about 70 percent between 11 A.M. and 5 P.M. Central Delaware gets a 40 percent shot at showers and storms from 11 A.M. To 4 P.M. Northern Delaware barely catches the action, just a brief 24 percent chance around 1 P.M. Nothing severe expected, but you might hear some rumbles south of I-31. Tonight, high pressure slides in. Skies clear, winds calm. And lows drop to the low 40s statewide. Patchy fog returns near the coast. Here's your heads-up for the week ahead. Monday brings sunshine and highs in the 50s to upper 60s. Tuesday stays mild with partly sunny skies near 70. Wednesday climbs into the low 70s before clouds roll in. Thursday's when things flip. A strong cold front crashes through with widespread rain. Highs hit the upper 50s to low 60s before temperatures nosedive. Behind that front, lingering rain or even snow showers Thursday night as lows plunge to the low 30s. Friday rebounds to the low 50s with partly sunny skies. The weekend looks mostly cloudy with highs in the upper 40s to low 50s. Enjoy the warmth while it lasts. See you this evening.
