Morning friends! If you liked yesterday, you will really like today's weather...well, after the cold start this morning. Temperatures this afternoon bounce up into the 50s today with plenty of sunshine. A little wind will pick up out of the south later today, but not too strong.

A windy and chilly end of the week with sunshine and temperatures only climbing up into the 30s for highs. When you factor in the wind that will gust over 30+ mph throughout the day...we will have wind chill values in the 10s and low 20s.

Saturday Morning Update to possible storm chance Thursday:

All three models have a storm, but as expected things have been repositioned in the last 24 hours and we continue to watch and see what happens.

Confidence of some kind of winter storm continues to grow for Thursday.

We are looking at a soggy weekend. We will be dry on Saturday morning before the steady rain fills in for the afternoon and evening. We will see some dry time on Sunday morning with warm and windy conditions before the cold front brings showers and a few thunderstorms.

I usually don’t post this early, but after looking at the models..I have to say it. This far out, I wouldn’t believe any snow outputs the models have for the possible storm on Thursday. It’s more than likely going to change, so…just don’t!

Tweaked the forecast for Tuesday into Tuesday night. I have also added my write up I posted on Facebook a few minutes ago…because character counts.

A little something something about our possible events for next week. TL;DR: Friday storm threat looks more interesting then Tue-Wed.

A really nice afternoon ahead of us on this Friday with sunshine and temperatures into the 30s and 40s. Get out and enjoy the sun with warmer temperatures as we have an unsettled weekend forecast ahead of us!

It's a cold start (it's winter) out the door this morning. With the breeze picking up today, we will see highs into the 30s. A clipper system coming in later today will increase the clouds and maybe provide a chance of a flurry or a spot of drizzle this evening.

Here is my latest forecast for the snow chance tonight into Saturday morning. Most snow across southern Delmarva...especially for Accomack and Northampton county.

First thoughts for Saturday AM Snow: Not a big deal event for most in Maryland and Delaware. Just a very light accumulation possible the farther south you go. A bigger issue on the Eastern Shore of VA where we could see 2-4" of snow. Winter Storm Watch is up for that area.

A very windy day will lead to wind chill values in the 10s for much of this Thursday. Highs this afternoon will only reach the 20s to near 30 degrees. Finally, we might see temperatures above the freezing mark on Friday to help melt a little of the ice and snow.

Some extra clouds roll across Delmarva later this afternoon with maybe a few flurries as another Arctic blast arrives to Delmarva. Temperatures today will be in the 20s and 30s for highs. Be prepared for a bitter cold morning Thursday.

Well, we have started to reach a consensus now that the energy is on the west coast this afternoon and being modeled. Looking more likely that we are gonna get some more snow for Saturday. Too early to talk numbers and such since this is our first model runs with agreement.

Here is a map based upon viewer snow total submissions and from the National Weather Service. as you can see...for the most part, our forecast was very good with regards to who had the most snow across northern and central parts of Peninsula.

Moderate to heavy snow continues to fly across a good part of Delmarva at the moment. This will continue as we move through the morning hours. If you don't have to be on the roads today...please stay at home. Crews are working hard to keep things clear.

Snow is coming down at a pretty good clip across most of the area this morning as the biggest winter storm since 2022 takes hold across Delmarva. We are on with the morning news through 7am with cut-ins all morning long. Also, updates here on social media and on the radio.

Just got into the office and updating you all that we have been upgraded to Winter Storm Warnings for the region ahead of Monday's storm. I will have an update of our snow totals and if we need to adjust them again and the latest timeline for this event in the coming hours.

I’m in this morning helping Mike Grewe with the forecast. Here is where we are with snow totals: At the moment, the biggest change we have made is brought some of the snow totals up across southern Delmarva. We will keep fine tuning this forecast over the course of the weekend.

The story today is the Arctic front on the way for this evening that will provide us rain showers and some light snow. There are some possibilities of light accumulations of snow especially for far northern Delmarva. A Winter Weather Advisory is up for this evening for those parts.

Before we talk about early next week, we need to get through Friday. An Arctic clipper will swing across the region providing us the chance of a few showers and even some light snow on the backside of this system. We could see a little light accumulation of snow in some places.
