The so-called “Christmas Star”, not visible at night for nearly 800 years, appears on the first night of Winter in the evening sky just after sunset as Jupiter and Saturn will appear as one giant star. Your pinky finger, held at arm’s length, should cover both planets. This is referred to as a great conjunction…
There will be a few scattered showers throughout the area today with a high temperature in the upper 40’s. This will lead to the arrival of the Winter Solstice tomorrow morning. ☔☔☔ It's going to be a cold and rainy Sunday. Light rain is moving in to the area this morning and will be around…
The last weekend before Christmas begins with partly cloudy conditions and a high temperature in the low 40’s. Sunday will warm to near 50 degrees with a chance of late day showers. That’s about it, folks. While cookies and carrots may be the traditional treats left for Santa and the reindeer, residents in the Southwest…
Christmas, albeit unlike any we can remember, will arrive one week from today. What’s on your list? Mine includes health and happiness more than anything. One Christmas miracle for me, I think, would be for the current and incoming presidents of our nation to stand side by side, each being vaccinated against COVID-19, then giving…
We can wake up to partially clearing skies and cold temperatures as Wednesday’s classic nor’easter storm has departed the area.

The Northeast region of the United States will be experiencing quite the snow storm today, but if you live south of the Interstate 95 corridor you will not be receiving an invitation to the party. Temperatures in the Salisbury area will top out in the low 50’s today with periods of windswept heavy rainfall likely…
In baseball a batter that gets 2 hits in 3 trips to the plate is considered very good. In basketball a free throw shooter who makes 2 out of 3 shots is thought to be just OK. A student who gets 2 out of 3 questions right on a test is considered poor. If you’re…
We are expecting rain all day today. Daytime highs in the mid to upper 40’s will plunge to the upper 20’s overnight, but the precipitation will have stopped prior to the arrival of the colder air. Expect about an inch of rain by the time it subsides this afternoon. Partly cloudy skies, again with temps…
Navy squared off against Army at West Point yesterday for the 121st time in their long football rivalry. While Army won the game 15-0 there were certainly no losers among the academy participants. Each one of them has committed to serving their nation in an honorable and unselfish way. Today’s weather will offer perfect football…
Somebody we all know, and 46.7% of us are told to love, had a bad Friday. He didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize. He wasn’t named Time’s Person of the Year, and he learned that he doesn’t own the Supreme Court of the United States of America. The President will need to come to terms…
