Construction teams in Rehoboth Beach have begun the process of installing protective barriers near one of the city’s most popular tourist destinations. Work crews removed pavement stones earlier this week at the intersection where Rehoboth Avenue meets the Boardwalk in preparation for the safety project.
The installation of bollards is scheduled to commence next week and continue through May 15, according to city officials. These protective barriers will be positioned along Rehoboth Avenue as it approaches the Bandstand area, as well as at the junction where the Boardwalk and Rehoboth Avenue meet.
Construction will proceed in phases, with temporary fencing being relocated as workers concentrate on different sections of the project. City officials emphasize that pedestrians will maintain access to the boardwalk from Rehoboth Avenue throughout the construction period.
Residents and visitors can find additional details about the Bandstand Boardwalk Vehicular Barrier Plan on the City of Rehoboth Beach website.
City officials in Rehoboth Beach are working to set the record straight about proposed charter modifications after incorrect information began spreading through social media and private messages.
According to a statement from the city, false claims have been circulating suggesting that property taxes will increase under the proposed charter changes. Officials emphasize this information is completely inaccurate.
The actual proposal would modify how the tax ceiling is calculated, switching from a set dollar figure to a percentage based on property values, without raising current tax rates. City leaders explain this adjustment is designed to ensure that future hotels and commercial developments pay appropriate amounts for municipal services like police protection as their property assessments increase over time.
The statement makes clear that no tax hikes are included in the current budget plans. However, city officials indicated they will present the complete legislative text for the charter revisions during their April 9th meeting agenda.
The clarification comes as Rehoboth Beach anticipates continued growth and development in the coming years.

A potent storm system is expected to bring the potential for severe thunderstorms across the Mid Atlantic on Monday, including portions of the Delmarva Peninsula. Forecasters are becoming increasingly concerned about the risk for significant damaging winds as a powerful cold front sweeps east through the region.
The setup begins with a deep upper level trough moving out of the Mississippi Valley and toward the Great Lakes on Monday. As this system strengthens, surface low pressure will deepen while tracking north through the Great Lakes into Canada. Trailing behind the system, a strong cold front will move toward the East Coast and is expected to cross the Mid Atlantic Monday afternoon and evening.
Ahead of the front, strong southerly winds will transport warm and increasingly humid air into the region. A warm front lifting north will allow temperatures to climb into the 60s across much of the area, with some locations potentially reaching the lower 70s. At the same time, dew points will surge toward 60 degrees, creating a more unstable and moisture rich environment ahead of the approaching cold front.
Showers are expected to develop Sunday night into Monday as warm air advection increases across the region. These showers will likely become more widespread through the day Monday as the large scale storm system approaches. Even with cloud cover and showers potentially limiting instability, the atmosphere will feature very strong wind fields capable of supporting organized severe storms.
The Storm Prediction Center has highlighted the potential for an enhancement of significant damaging winds across portions of the Mid Atlantic on Monday. Forecast models show extremely strong winds just above the surface, with winds at around 5,000 feet reaching 50 to 70 knots. When thunderstorms develop along the cold front, these winds could be transported down to the surface, producing corridors of damaging wind gusts.
In addition to the wind threat, the overall wind shear profile will be very favorable for storm organization. Forecast soundings show strong turning of winds with height, which may allow storms to rotate. If storms develop ahead of the cold front in the warm sector during the afternoon, a few supercells could form. These storms would have the potential to produce isolated tornadoes, especially from the Carolinas into eastern Virginia before moving northward.
The most likely severe weather scenario, however, involves a fast moving squall line developing along or just ahead of the cold front during the afternoon and evening. This line of storms could produce widespread damaging wind gusts, with embedded tornadoes also possible due to the intense low level wind shear.
Heavy rainfall will also accompany the storms as deep moisture moves northward into the region, with atmospheric moisture values climbing above one inch of precipitable water.
Once the cold front passes Monday night, conditions will change quickly. Much colder air will surge into the region on gusty northwest winds, bringing temperatures back closer to seasonal levels for Tuesday and Wednesday.

Authorities are looking into two separate deadly vehicle accidents that took place within hours of each other across Maryland’s Eastern Shore region yesterday evening.
The first incident happened at approximately 8:33 p.m. when law enforcement officers from the Easton Barrack were dispatched to 5948 Eldorado Road in Rhodesdale following reports of a single-car accident. Initial findings indicate that Brandi Stoneburner, a 40-year-old woman from Princess Anne, Maryland, was driving her Kia Sportage southbound on Eldorado Road when her vehicle veered off the road for undetermined reasons. The car collided with an electrical utility box before rolling over.
Stoneburner, who was alone in the vehicle, was declared dead at the crash site. Traffic was diverted for over three hours while investigators examined the scene.
Later that evening at approximately 11:16 p.m., officers from the Centreville Barrack were called to U.S. Route 301 near Maryland Route 544 in Millington following reports of a two-car collision. Preliminary findings show that Drew Satterfield, 19, from Middletown, Delaware, was driving a Chevrolet Traverse northbound when Easton Bryant, 22, from Chester, Maryland, rear-ended his vehicle with a Volkswagen GTI. The impact sent Satterfield’s Chevrolet off the highway where it flipped into nearby woods. Investigators suspect excessive speed and possible substance impairment contributed to the collision.
Satterfield was declared dead at the scene. Bryant sustained injuries and was airlifted by Trooper 1 helicopter to a regional trauma facility for medical care.
Criminal charges could be filed depending on investigation results and discussions with Queen Anne’s County prosecutors. The highway remained shut down for more than two hours during the investigation process.
The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration provided support for both road closures. Maryland State Police Crash Team specialists are continuing their active investigations into both incidents.

KLEINFELTERSVILLE, Pa. — Bird enthusiasts assembled in the early morning hours to witness an extraordinary spectacle as thousands of snow geese prepared to continue their northward migration from a Pennsylvania wildlife area.
The breathtaking moment unfolded roughly one hour past sunrise when the massive flock suddenly ceased their calling and grooming to launch skyward from the reservoir. The stunning aerial show lasted only minutes as the birds made several passes overhead before departing toward nearby agricultural areas to forage for leftover crops and nourishment during their remarkable spring journey toward New York and Quebec.
The reservoir was constructed five decades ago specifically to draw waterfowl, and the visiting flocks have expanded significantly over time. Payton Miller, an environmental education specialist with the Pennsylvania Game Commission, characterized the sight as a noisy avian whirlwind rising from the water’s surface.
“All it takes is for me to come out here on a really nice morning where there’s a huge morning flight and I’m kind of reminded how awesome it is to see such a large number of such a beautiful bird,” Miller said. “I never get sick of it.”
Adrian Binns, a safari guide from Paoli, Pennsylvania, was among the observers at the Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area seeking “the whole enjoyment of seeing something you don’t see every day.”
Snow geese populations at the 6,300-acre Middle Creek facility have swelled since the late 1990s. During this season, the birds have completed months along the Atlantic coastline, stretching from New Jersey down to the Carolinas, with many having wintered on the Delmarva Peninsula surrounding the Chesapeake Bay.
Their visit to Middle Creek is brief — serving merely as a rest stop during their trek to summer nesting areas in the Canadian Arctic and western Greenland. However, during their short stay spanning several weeks, they become Middle Creek’s primary draw, attracting roughly 150,000 annual visitors, including approximately 1,000 hunters.
The Pennsylvania Game Commission, which manages Middle Creek, reports that around 100,000 snow geese used the area as roosting habitat on the peak day last year, matching recent high activity levels but falling short of the single-day record of approximately 200,000 birds recorded on February 21, 2018.
While snow geese populations remain healthy, their substantial numbers have created challenges. Research published by Springer Nature in 2017 showed greater snow geese populations expanded from roughly 3,000 birds in the early 1900s to approximately 700,000 by the 1990s. Current estimates suggest about one million of these birds exist today, alongside perhaps 10 million lesser snow geese, a smaller variety that also nests in Arctic regions.
Migrating tundra swan numbers at Middle Creek have similarly grown over the decades, climbing from about a dozen in the mid-1970s to 5,000 or more in recent years. Birdwatchers at Middle Creek have documented over 280 species at the location, including bald eagles, northern harriers, ospreys and owls.
The dramatic increase in snow geese populations in recent decades has created complex challenges for wildlife managers in both the United States and Canada, who must balance hunting policies, agricultural damage concerns, shifting migration routes and changing winter habitat preferences. Excessive grazing damage in Arctic environments has led scientists to determine the species has become overabundant.
David M. Bird, a wildlife biology professor at McGill University, called the population “probably one of the biggest conservation problems facing wildlife biologists in North America today.” Snow geese forage by uprooting entire plants, which destroys habitat for their own species as well as other birds and wildlife.
The Pennsylvania Game Commission recently noted that avian influenza strains, detected in the state since 2022, remain active among wild bird populations. Officials have requested public assistance in reporting sick or deceased wild birds and noted that approximately 2,000 wild bird carcasses — primarily snow geese — required removal from a quarry several miles north of Bethlehem during December and January.
Bird explained that snow geese represent different things to different groups: nature enthusiasts find them magnificent while farmers view them as destructive pests. Hunters consider them a food source while animal welfare advocates believe they need protection.
“But if you are a paid professional wildlife manager at a municipal, state or federal level whose challenging job is to try to please all of the aforementioned parties, then you will undoubtedly experience many sleepless nights in the fall when the geese arrive,” Bird said.

Virtually the entire United States is experiencing or preparing for severe weather conditions as multiple extreme systems converge across the nation.
Hawaii has begun experiencing days of heavy rainfall. The Southwest is preparing for consecutive days of record-breaking temperatures exceeding 100 degrees (38 Celsius). Two storm systems are expected to deliver feet of snow across northern Great Lakes regions. Meanwhile, the polar vortex is set to bring bone-chilling Arctic temperatures to the Midwest and Eastern states.
This extreme weather forecast follows dramatic temperature swings that have already affected much of the East Coast. Washington, D.C. residents enjoyed record-breaking 86-degree Fahrenheit (about 30 Celsius) weather on Wednesday, walking around in shorts, only to see snowfall the following day.
“All of the country, even if you’re not necessarily seeing extremes, are going to see generally changing from cold to warm, or warm to cold to warm,” said meteorologist Marc Chenard of the weather service’s Weather Prediction Center in Maryland.
Former National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration chief scientist Ryan Maue said he expects extreme weather in all 50 states.
A heat dome will establish itself early next week over the Southwest, creating triple-digit temperatures unprecedented for this time of year, according to both Maue and Chenard.
Weather predictions show Phoenix reaching 98 degrees (almost 37 Celsius) on Tuesday, followed by 103, 105 and two consecutive days of 107 degrees (almost 42 C). Phoenix’s 137-year weather history shows the city has never reached 100 degrees before March 26, typically hitting its first century mark in early May, according to the weather service, which cautioned residents: “Since we are not acclimated to this level of heat this early in the year, it will be more impactful than usual.”
Los Angeles has already begun experiencing this pattern with unusual March temperatures reaching 90 degrees, sending residents in shorts and tank tops searching for any available shade, including narrow strips cast by light poles.
Shane Dixon, 40, typically completes 5-mile runs near his Culver City home without difficulty, but Thursday’s heat forced him to cut his workout short, his face covered in sweat and his T-shirt tucked into his shorts.
“The back of my neck was melting,” he said. But he preferred it to the cold and snow that will hit elsewhere.
“I could go literally soak myself and walk out in the sun and I’ll make it home fine. If it was freezing cold I could not do this,” he said.
Simultaneously with Phoenix’s heat wave, the polar vortex — a system that typically contains frigid air near the North Pole — is predicted to push its chill deep into the Midwest and East, potentially reaching parts of the Southeast, Maue explained.
Minneapolis temperatures will drop to around zero, while Chicago will experience single digits on Tuesday. The following day will bring “temperatures in the teens and 20s in the northeast and 20s in the Mid-Atlantic,” Maue said. Atlanta could see temperatures drop into the 20s.
Two consecutive storm systems — the first arriving Friday, followed by another Sunday through Monday — will move across the nation’s northern regions and Great Lakes, potentially depositing 3 to 4 feet of snow in some areas, Maue explained.
The second, larger storm system will experience such rapid barometric pressure drops — indicating intensification and strengthening winds — that it will qualify as a bomb cyclone, an unusual phenomenon over land. While bomb cyclones typically draw energy from warm ocean waters, this system will derive power from the polar vortex.
Maue said Hawaii is getting an atmospheric river that will have such persistent heavy rain that flooding will be a major issue. Oahu is under a flash flood warning.
Alaska, normally frigid during this season, will experience temperatures approximately 30 degrees below normal, he noted.
“It is the time of year where we can see stuff like this,” Chenard said. “But this does seem even anomalous from what you would typically see. I mean, some of these areas will be setting records. Record-high temperatures for March and maybe multiple times.”
Over the past week, tornadoes have claimed at least eight lives in Oklahoma, Michigan and Indiana. While severe storm forecasts don’t appear as extensive or widespread for the coming week, dangerous thunderstorms could develop “anywhere from the Mississippi Valley toward the East Coast” on Sunday or Monday, Chenard said.
An erratic jet stream underlies these conditions, both Maue and Chenard explained.
The jet stream functions as an air river that transports weather from west to east along a roller-coaster-like trajectory. Typically, these dips resemble gentle kiddie roller coaster movements. Currently, however, the jet stream is creating nearly vertical, dramatic drops followed by steep climbs.
“Which means you get a lot of extremes next to each other,” Maue said. Pacific storm fronts encounter the high-pressure heat dome in the Southwest and get pushed northward to climb that mountainous jet stream peak, “grab access to that cold air reservoir up there” and bring it back down south down the other side of the hill, he said.
Multiple studies have linked unusual jet stream and polar vortex behavior to diminishing Arctic sea ice and human-caused climate change.
However, relief is expected.
“The first day of spring is 20th (of March), and then after that we get recovery,” Maue said.
Drivers should expect delays on Cullen Street today as construction crews have reduced traffic to a single lane along a key section of the roadway.
The lane restriction is in place from King Charles Street extending to where Cullen Street terminates, according to Delaware Department of Transportation officials.
The construction-related closure is scheduled to remain active until 4 PM this afternoon, after which normal traffic patterns are expected to resume.
Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes or allow extra travel time when navigating through the affected area during the closure period.
Worcester County emergency officials have scheduled a comprehensive test of their backup 911 communications system for Tuesday, April 7, 2026.
The testing will be conducted at the Fire Training Center and is expected to run from 8:00 AM until 4:30 PM that day.
The backup 911 center serves as a critical component of the county’s emergency response infrastructure, ensuring continuous emergency communications capability in case the primary system experiences any disruptions.
County officials have not indicated whether the testing will impact regular emergency services or require any special procedures for residents calling 911 during the testing period.
Delaware Department of Transportation officials have implemented a right lane restriction on northbound Interstate 95 for ongoing construction activities.
The lane closure affects the stretch of highway between the toll plaza and the welcome center, with work expected to continue until 6 p.m. today.
Motorists traveling north on I-95 through this section should expect potential delays and are advised to merge safely into the left lane when approaching the construction zone.
Drivers traveling on Darley Road should be aware of construction-related lane restrictions affecting traffic flow today.
According to DelDOT, the shoulder along Darley Road between South Trail and Naamans Road is currently closed to accommodate construction activities. The temporary closure is expected to last until 3 PM this afternoon.
Motorists are advised to use caution when traveling through the work zone and allow extra time for their commute. The construction may cause minor delays as traffic is directed around the closed shoulder area.
