Spring Preview

Temperatures today resembled the month of May not February across Delmarva. Myself along with many others enjoyed a little break from the cold weather. I even turned the A/C on in my car today on the way to work this afternoon.

Many record highs were broken today across the shore with highs well into the 70's.
Dover, DE (71)
Georgetown, DE (73)
Salisbury, MD (75)
Wallops Island, VA (77)
Our weather watchers were calling in today with highs in the 70's. I also had a viewer call in from Berlin, MD with a temperature at his house reaching a high of 78.

It looks like the warmth comes to an end tonight as a strong cold front ushers in cooler air for the rest of the week. There will also be a brief shot of Arctic air arriving on Sunday with highs potentially only in the 30's.

Some good news is that the severe weather has calmed down today, with only two tornadoes reported across the South. Much better than yesterdays 78 tornado reports, but severe weather is expected with these types of storm system setups and air masses.
