inch to about an inch and a quarter's worth. delaware, south jersey depending on the area of low pressure and how it tracks, anywhere from an inch to an inch and a half and locally higher amounts than that. this really sets us up for an unsettled pattern tomorrow and then right through sunday into tuesday, we essentially have this trough of low pressure that's cut off from the main jet stream. so we have showers, pockets of sunshine and then a few pop-up showers as we go throughout the day sunday monday into tuesday before the pattern breaks. the exclusive accuweather 7-day forecast showing
