Baltimore, MD – Golden morning light glints across the Inner Harbor as calm waters and crisp air set a tranquil start for the Mid-Atlantic’s first full weekend of November. It’s the kind of mild, sunny pattern Baltimoreans relish before winter winds begin to stir. Temperatures rise comfortably through Sunday, though subtle changes aloft point to a shift by early Monday when the next weak system approaches.

According to the National Weather Service in Sterling, Virginia, the weekend stays dry and seasonably warm with highs near 63°F and lows in the mid-40s. Winds remain light through Sunday, turning southerly as a weak disturbance drifts east from the Ohio Valley. A 20 percent chance of light rain develops late Sunday night and into early Monday, mainly north and west of the Beltway.

Drivers along I-95 and I-70 should plan for occasional damp spots early Monday, though rainfall totals will remain minor. The pattern clears quickly by afternoon, leaving behind another stretch of sunshine and calm breezes through midweek.

The region has largely escaped any early frost or freeze, but the crisp air serves as a gentle reminder that colder weather isn’t far off. To be fair, this calm spell marks a rare lull before the seasonal pattern strengthens again by mid-November — a time when the Mid-Atlantic often sees its first meaningful cold snap. For now, it’s ideal for outdoor cleanup, light yard work, or a stroll along the harbor before the short workweek begins under scattered clouds and mild November air.
