With high temperatures in the mid 40s today, you would think it is January or early February. High pressure off the New England Coast and Low pressure off the mid-Atlantic coast is providing persistent East/Northeasterly winds. This wind flow is picking up moisture off the Atlantic causing low clouds and mist across the shore. Ocean water temperatures are in the mid to upper 40s resulting in some cool air temps over land. Welcome to Spring on Delmarva, this is a classic spring-time maritime air mass setup around here. Also, coastal areas could see some flooding around times of high tide tonight into tomorrow.
A little sunshine does go along way this time of year. While we were chilling in the 40s today, areas West of the Appalachians were well into the 70s with sunshine. The low cloud deck only extended a few hundred miles inland today. The sunshine will slowly increase by mid-week warming up the temperatures to above average by the end of the week.
