Saturday July 7
This morning the temperatures AND dew points have dropped. You will notice that as soon as you step outside, however there is one wrinkle in this beautiful weekend forecast. Clouds are lingering across central and southern Maryland through the Delmarva beaches. That is the back edge of the cold front that ended out heat wave and it is stalled because of tropical depression three off of the South Carolina Coast.
This storm is expected to develop into a tropical storm this weekend and hurricane early next week. It will be named Chris and it will move away from the coast. But as the sun returns, rip currents will be a beach issue for a few days early next week.
