Maryland commuters are stepping into a chilly February morning as temperatures hover near 36 degrees in Baltimore before sunrise. Patchy fog lingers in spots, especially near the Inner Harbor and along I-95, where damp pavement could feel slick in isolated areas. The air carries a late-winter bite, though no widespread ice is reported.
The National Weather Service says clouds will dominate early, with gradual clearing through the afternoon. Highs climb to around 43 degrees today as light winds shift calm. The cool start keeps the morning brisk, but sunshine should improve visibility and road conditions by midday.
Tonight remains mostly cloudy with lows near 36 degrees. A steady warming trend begins Tuesday as highs reach 53 degrees under partly sunny skies. That momentum builds into Wednesday, February 18, when temperatures surge to 57 degrees. A 30 percent chance of rain develops Wednesday afternoon and evening, signaling the next shift in the pattern.
Rain chances increase late Thursday into Friday, with highs holding in the upper 40s to upper 50s. No snow or icy mix is expected in Baltimore during this stretch, as temperatures stay well above freezing.
Looking ahead into President’s Day Week, the 6–10 day outlook favors above-normal temperatures across central Maryland. Highs remain in the 50s, offering more of a February thaw than a winter freeze and hinting at early spring vibes around the Chesapeake Bay.
