wintry mix – Page 6 – Maryland Weather

Mostly sunny today; Wintry mix likely Sunday night & Monday

A FIRE WEATHER WATCH is in effect this afternoon for all of Maryland, west of the bay (except Garrett county).

Today will be mostly sunny, breezy but warmer, with afternoon highs in the upper 50s to around 60.

Clouds will increase tonight as a weak cold front approaches from the west. The front will pass through tomorrow morning, bringing a slight chance of a shower as it does. The front will push southward during the day, clouds will decrease while west winds increase but temperatures should warm into the low to mid 60s.

The front will make it into southern Virginia before stalling out Saturday night. High pressure to the north will begin to funnel cold air southward and into the area. This will set the stage for the next storm system that will approach from the southwest.

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.

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.

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