ocean city warmed up to 80. but the realf how much moisture is in here, how humid it is, is the dew point temperature. it is really sticky air. we still have some of that, especially on the delmarva peninsula. 50's out to the west. that's that less humid air beginning to filter in now. you can barely see this. little streaks of clouds here. lower clouds don't show up well. from the bay westward we have good healthy sunshine. here are those storms off shore from cape cod down to off the jersey coast and off to the bay. that cooler air is filtering in now. it will be a factor in our weather today in that it will be a little slow to get rid of all the humidity. something later moving on in the front may pop something to the south of us. it looks like baltimore just basically partly cloudy. maybe a shower to the south. northwest winds at 6 to 12. we're still in the warm air, so we'll be in the mid 80's for highs. ocean city, a little bit of chance for a shower or thunderstorm cropping up this afternoon and then again tomorrow as
