Wilmington, Delaware – Showers and thunderstorms could disrupt weekend plans across Delaware this Saturday as another round of unstable summer weather targets the region. From mid-morning through late afternoon, Wilmington and nearby communities face a heightened risk of rain and potential thunderstorms — especially along U.S. Route 13 and the I-95 corridor.
According to the National Weather Service, scattered storms will likely develop between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Saturday, bringing localized downpours, gusty winds, and reduced visibility. Showers will taper off by early evening as skies begin to clear. Rainfall amounts should remain light, but pockets of heavier rain are possible in stronger cells. Drivers should allow extra time and avoid flooded roadways.
By Sunday, Wilmington will enjoy drier, sunnier conditions, with highs near 90°F and just a slight chance of showers after 2 p.m. Monday continues the heat trend, topping out at 91°F with scattered storms expected by afternoon.
Heading into early July, summer weather persists with a high of 88°F Tuesday and more storm chances through Tuesday night. Skies clear again Wednesday, bringing sunshine and highs in the upper 80s — just in time to prepare for the Fourth of July.
