Partly sunny today and tomorrow; Light snow possible this weekend

High pressure is building into the region today, resulting in partly sunny skies with highs in the low to mid 30s.

Tomorrow will be similar to today, but a few degrees warmer with highs in the mid to upper 30s.

This weekend, we will be impacted by two separate areas of low pressure. At one point, it looked as those these two pieces of energy may phase and produce a significant storm along the east coast. Now, it appears the southern low will scoot by to our south and the northern low will move by without phasing. This will result in a chance of light snow Saturday into Sunday but nothing significant. Highs both days will be in the mid 30s.

Mostly sunny and cold today; Warmer through weekend

The storm system that brought snow to the deep south clipped our state overnight, spreading anywhere from a dusting north and west of I-95 to 5″ across the lower eastern shore. As that system departs, high pressure will build in. As a result, today will be mostly sunny but cold, with highs around 20.

High pressure will push offshore tomorrow allowing southerly flow to warm temperatures into the weekend. Highs tomorrow will be around 30 under mostly sunny skies.

Friday will see increasing clouds and temperatures returning to near normal, with highs in the low 40s.

Generally cloudy and cold today; Snow develops across south

Today will be generally cloudy and cold throughout the state as an area of low pressure develops over the deep south and moves towards the Carolina coast. Highs will top out around 20 degrees.

A Wind Chill Advisory is in effect through mid morning as wind chills drop to below 0 at times.

Widespread heavy snowfall is expected across most of Virginia and the Carolinas where up to a foot of snow may fall. We will be on the northern fringe of the storm here in Maryland. That said, lower southern Maryland and the lower eastern shore will likely see snow develop late this afternoon and into tonight. 1-2″ of snow is possible across St. Mary’s and Calvert counties while the eastern shore may see upwards of 4 inches.

A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for the lower eastern shore, including Ocean City.

Forecast Update: Snow, heavy at times develops tomorrow morning

A moderate to high impact snowstorm will affect the area tomorrow. An arctic front is moving into the area from the north and will usher in very cold air. This will set the stage for an area of low pressure to form and move eastward over Virginia and then up the coast.

A Winter Storm Warning has been issued and goes into effect tomorrow morning for the entire state.

Snow will move into the area during the morning hours, starting around 3am in far western Maryland, between 8 and 10am in central Maryland and between 11 and noon on the eastern shore.

With high pressure to our south, today will be mostly sunny and milder with highs around 50.

Clouds will increase tonight as an arctic cold front moves towards the area. An area of low pressure will develop along the front as it moves through. The low will pass by to our south, bringing accumulating snowfall to the area tomorrow into tomorrow night.

A Winter Storm Watch has been issued for the entire state. Accumulations over 5″ are possible, especially south and east of I-95.
