FORECAST DISCUSSION
Normal high: 84°F. Normal low: 64°F.
Showers and a few thunderstorms will continue through at least the first half of Friday as a cold front slowly pushes south of Delmarva.
Rainfall is expected to be beneficial, with most locations receiving between a quarter and a half inch of rain before conditions improve later in the day. The highest rainfall totals will likely occur across the Lower Eastern Shore and areas farther south.
Skies will gradually clear Friday afternoon and evening, setting us up for a beautiful Father's Day weekend. Sunshine, lower humidity, and highs in the mid-80s are expected Saturday, with even warmer temperatures in the upper 80s by Sunday.
Scattered shower and thunderstorm chances return by Monday afternoon and Monday night.
In the long range, temperatures are favored to remain above normal, with above-normal precipitation expected from June 25 through July 1.
In the Tropics: Remnants of Tropical Storm "Arthur" are bringing heavy rain to much of the Deep South. There is a chance that some tropical moisture could make it far enough north that some welcome tropical rain could arrive on Delmarva early Friday.
There is a low, 10 percent chance, that remnants of "Arthur" could re-form into an organized tropical system off the Mid-Atlantic coast in the next several days.
