Rain/Mix Moving into Area

Low pressure over the midwest is spreading light precipitation into the area this morning. The precip will likely start as a wintry mix, especially in the western parts of the state. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for Garrett and Allegany counties where a light glaze of ice is possible.

Elsewhere, the mix should change over to plain rain without any ice accumulations. Highs today will top out in the mid 30s, except in western Maryland where temperatures may remain below freezing through the event.

The light precipitation will continue into tonight, as rain, mixing with sleet at times everywhere except western Maryland. Additionally, a coastal low pressure is expected to form and move by tomorrow, increasing rainfall tomorrow. Highs tomorrow will be around 40 degrees.

Rain Today, Possibly Ending as Snow Tonight

An area of low pressure continues to develop into a powerful Nor’Easter off the Carolina coast. As it moves northeast, it will continue to spread rain, sleet and snow over our area and will bring heavy snow and blizzard conditions to New England.

A Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect for counties north and west of I-95. These areas will gradually transition to rain today as highs top out around 40 degrees.

As the storm moves northeast and phases with a secondary low currently over Ohio, it will strengthen rapidly and as it does, colder air will be pulled into our area, possibly changing the rain to snow before ending tonight.

Accumulations of up to an inch are possible, especially over northeast Maryland. Additionally, winds will increase tonight and will gust to near 40mph at times.

Partly Sunny Today; Rainy Friday

An area of low pressure currently over the deep south will combine with energy diving out of Canada to form a strong Nor’Easter. The storm is expected to bring blizzard conditions and possibly historic snows to New England.

The phasing of these systems will occur too late for our area to see any significant precipitation and warmer air will ensure that most if not all that falls will be in the form of rain.

Clouds will continue to overspread the area ahead of the system today. Highs will be in the upper 30s to around 40.

Precipitation will move into the region tonight, possibly beginning as a rain/snow/sleet mix before changing over to plain rain by morning. Rain will continue tomorrow, into tomorrow night, possibly ending as light snow showers. Highs will be in the mid 40s. Winds will increase through the day, possibly gusting to near 40 by tomorrow night.
