Today on Little Assawoman Bay, we’re looking at a beautiful range from a cool 62°F at dawn to a pleasant 71°F peak in the early afternoon. Morning paddlers will encounter patchy fog and light 5 mph westerly winds, creating that classic misty bay atmosphere Delaware paddlers know and love.

Paddling Window: 7AM-7PM

The hourly breakdown tells a compelling story today. From 7am through 9am, expect patchy fog with temperatures climbing from 62°F to 65°F and winds holding steady at 5 mph from the west. By 10am, the fog lifts and we transition to mostly sunny skies with temps reaching 68°F. The sweet spot arrives between 11am and 2pm when temperatures hit their peak of 70-71°F under mostly to partly sunny skies. Winds remain gentle at 5 mph, shifting from northwest to southeast around midday. Late afternoon sees winds pick up to 10 mph from the south starting at 4pm, but conditions remain highly paddleable through closing.

Early birds launching at 7am will paddle through atmospheric fog with 97% humidity and a cool 62°F—bring a light layer. By mid-morning around 10am, you’ll be rewarded with clearing skies and 68°F waters. The midday hours from 11am to 3pm offer prime conditions with temperatures steady around 70-71°F and those easy 5 mph northwest winds keeping things comfortable. After 4pm, expect the wind to increase to 10 mph from the south as clouds build, dropping temps slightly to 69°F by early evening.
