Scattered Showers this afternoon, possibly mixing with snow tonight
Cooler and breezy this weekend; Showers likely tomorrow
Mostly sunny but chilly today; Light snow/mix likely tomorrow
High pressure will build into the region today, allowing for ample sunshine but also bringing colder air. Highs today will only top out around 40 degrees.
The high pressure will be replaced tomorrow as two pieces of energy phase off the Carolina coast and rapidly develop into a strong coastal storm. The storm will develop off the coast and will not impact the area.
However, as the two pieces of energy come together over our area, light precipitation is expected. It should be cold enough for mostly snow, but rain may mix in, especially along and east of I-95.
Any snow that falls will have an extremely tough time accumulating. Expect a coating to possibly a slushy inch, mainly on elevated surfaces and grassy areas. Highs tomorrow will be in the mid 30s.
Windy and cold today; Warmer into the weekend
A WIND ADVISORY is in effect for the entire state until 11:00am.
A WIND CHILL ADVISORY is in effect for Garrett and Allegany counties until noon.
Cold high pressure continues to push into the region. As it does, gusty northwest winds are bringing in much colder air. Temperatures have fallen to near 0 in Garrett county and into the teens and 20s elsewhere.
With mostly sunny skies today, temps should climb into the low 30s for highs. It will remain windy through the day with gusts to 35mph likely into this evening.
Tomorrow will start out cold again, but temperatures will rebound into the mid 50s by the afternoon under mostly sunny skies.
A weak cold front will pass through tomorrow morning, spreading clouds and possibly a sprinkle through the area. Skies will clear during the late morning and highs will jump to near 60.
