Windy and Cold Weekend

Today is the first day of winter and it will certainly feel like it!

The cold front that brought heavy rain and wind to the area last night has pushed off the coast and colder air is beginning to filter into the region.

Winds will increase through the day today as the storm intensifies to our north. Highs today were reached at 2:40 this morning and will continue to drop through the day, into the 30s this evening.

Winds will gust to around 30mph this afternoon, making it feel even colder. There may be a sprinkle or flurry this afternoon as well.

In far western Maryland, snow will continue to fall and combine with the strong winds to produce blizzard conditions at times through tomorrow.
