All clear ahead

Sure it's been wet and gloomy for a whole week. But the skies will clear tomorrow and stay clear for the weekend for most of the state as a dry cold front pushes into the region. Don't take my word for it. Here's the forecast. Look for sunny skies, with comfortable temperatures in the upper 70s Saturday and upper 60s on Sunday.

Ever since the remnants of TS Tammy slopped through here last weekend with record heavy rains, we've been stuck in the back wash from this tropical low-pressure system that's been hanging just off the coast. While it sent endless rains into NJ, NY and NE, we've had gray, drippy skies.  It sure beats floods, but we could use some sunshine.

Those headed for Ocean City for one more autumn weekend at the beach will have to wait another day for the offshore storm system to move away and for the clearing to arrive. Looks like a wet Saturday there. Better Sunday. Here's the OC forecast.
