* Coastal flood warning through Saturday morning for Tidal Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay *
Despite a day full of rain, temperatures were able to surge into the low 60s this afternoon. There’s even been a bit of humidity in the air. That’s what happens when you bring a strong low pressure to our west. It also dropped an inch to two of rain across much of the local area, in addition to the significant coastal flooding problems that are ongoing. While most of the storm is over it’ll be slow to fully move out this weekend.
