Hold on to your Hat!

As a second cold front moves through Delmarva on Sunday, we are expecting to see very breezy conditions. We are not taking about wind gust of 30 mph winds, the winds are expected to be sustained at 25-35 mph with gust up to 45 mph! With winds like this we will be close to tropical storm strength winds, which are sustained at 39-73 mph.

On another note, this front is also bringing in a very dry, arctic air mass. Relative humidities could be as low as 15 to 30% for Accomack county, which puts them in a Fire Weather Watch for Sunday.

This weather will be interesting, hold on to things when you are outside and be safe driving, crosswinds may make driving conditions dangerous.
