Farther south, the waves have battered North Carolina and took out at least two homes. Watch as this house was seen on video getting pulled into the Atlantic Ocean.

This Morning… 

IMPORTANT NOTE: 

The weather pattern is about to be dominated by an old storm off of the coast circling back our way.  The focus will be on the onshore wind, which will build back in rain. However it is impossible to pin point where and when on Saturday and Sunday. So outdoor plans may be affected but not promised for any location. The rain will pop up at any time.

Surface Weather

Low Pressure continues to wonder off of the North Carolina coast. This keeps the high winds up AND will bring the clouds and rain back is sooner.

Morning Temperatures 

This is interesting… Inland where there has been a clear sky and less wind, it starts cooler in the 40s, but will up warmer in the 70s.

Afternoon Temperatures

Closer to the influence of the wind temp will remain in the 60s by the Bay and 50s on low Delmarva and coastal areas.

Afternoon Showers: Rain On Lower Eastern Shore

*Disclaimer due to frequent questions:

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here you may have missed it:

I have dyslexia, and found out at my second year at Cornell.  I didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree, and being first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. 

I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. 

All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. 

There is no editor that can check my work when I need it and have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. 

I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me…

It’s part of my charm.
