Maryland commuters are stepping into a brisk 37-degree morning as clouds hang low over Baltimore and a rain-snow mix brushes parts of the region. Damp pavement and patchy slush are possible north and west of the Inner Harbor, especially during the early drive.
According to the National Weather Service, a chance of rain and snow will linger through late morning before skies gradually brighten. Highs climb to near 51 degrees this afternoon as southwest winds gust up to 22 mph. While accumulation looks minimal in the city, brief bursts could coat grassy surfaces and create slick spots on untreated roads.
Drivers along I-83, I-95, and the Baltimore-Washington Parkway should stay alert for changing conditions before midday. Temperatures hovering near freezing early can allow elevated surfaces to turn briefly icy. As warmer air pushes in, roads improve quickly.
Tonight turns partly cloudy with lows near 37. Thursday brings another chance of rain, possibly mixing with snow during the late morning and early afternoon. Highs reach the mid-40s before cooler air settles in Thursday night near 33 degrees.
Sunshine returns Friday with highs near 47. The weekend delivers a noticeable spring tease. Saturday soars to 57 degrees under bright skies before cooler air edges back Sunday near 48.
Early next week trends unsettled again with rain and snow chances Monday and Tuesday. Longer-range outlooks hint at moderating temperatures into early March, signaling that steadier spring warmth is not far away.
