Delaware Weather March 4 Evening - 38° Above Normal

Good evening. Delaware. I'm Aaron Jolly. That wet stuff on your windshield this morning? that's the last gasp of a wintry mix that dropped a quick dusting of snow overnight. We're stuck in the gray today, caught between low pressure to our west and a stationary front draped right across Delmarva. Translation: clouds, fog. And periods of rain. In the next 24 hours. Northern Delaware starts at 38 degrees with rain likely through 6 A.M. and patchy fog reducing visibility. Highs climb to 50 degrees under mostly cloudy skies. Central Delaware sits at 41 degrees with similar fog and drizzle, reaching 52 degrees this afternoon. Down in Southern Delaware, you're starting at 43 degrees with a southwest wind around 10 miles an hour. Highs near 51, but temperatures actually fall to around 45 by afternoon. Tonight, the fog thickens again. Rain returns late, with lows settling in the low 40s statewide. Thursday brings more rain showers and even a chance of thunderstorms Thursday night. Highs jump to the mid-50s north and near 61 degrees in central Delaware. Here's the payoff for slogging through two damp days. High pressure builds this weekend. Saturday highs surge into the low 70s. Sunday and Monday stay mild in the mid-60s to near 70. Tuesday could hit 73 degrees. That's nearly 38 degrees above normal for early March. We're gaining over two and a half minutes of daylight each day now. Sunrise at 6:32 A.M., sunset at 5:58 P.M. and tonight's full moon will be playing hide-and-seek behind all those clouds. Keep the umbrella handy today and Thursday. The weekend rewards your patience. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
