Warm Finish to the Week

Typical late March weather is in the forecast, warm one day then cool the next. Today's front that Kira mentioned is still forecast to move Northward tonight. There is a warm air mass just South of Delmarva with temperatures in the 60s and 70s. When the front moves North, the current cooler air mass will be replaced with the warmer air mass as the winds switch out of the South. Like today, temperatures for tomorrow are really going to depend on how much sun we see. It looks like Southern areas see the longest amount of sun and Northern areas see the shortest. But I still think all inland locations have a good shot at seeing 70 degrees or higher.

Very warm temperatures a few thousand feet above the surface will be overhead of Delmarva on Friday. These temperatures could support upper 70's, if full sunshine develops long enough. The record high for Salisbury on Friday is 82. It will be tough to get a long period of sun when the front is expected to move back through the area late afternoon. So any areas that do see sun will have clouds build back in the afternoon with the chance of showers as the front approaches. After the front moves through winds switch back out of the North and cooler air filters back in for the weekend with below average temperatures.
