Salisbury, Maryland – A lingering stretch of below-normal temperatures is expected to hold across eastern Maryland through mid-February, keeping winter firmly in place while snow chances remain limited. The overall pattern favors cold, mostly dry conditions, reducing the likelihood of disruptive winter weather across the Eastern Shore.
According to the National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center, the 6–10 day outlook from February 10–14 favors below-normal temperatures across eastern Maryland, including the Eastern Shore and areas near the Chesapeake Bay. Precipitation probabilities remain near normal, suggesting a low chance for widespread or accumulating snow during the period.
Communities such as Salisbury, Cambridge, and Easton are expected to see daytime highs running below seasonal averages, with overnight lows frequently dipping below freezing. Any snow that does develop would likely be light and short-lived, limiting impacts on key routes such as U.S. Route 50 and Route 13. Still, early morning commuters should be alert for isolated slick spots on bridges and untreated roads, especially during colder starts.
The extended cold may increase heating demand and raise the risk of icy patches during the pre-dawn hours. Residents are encouraged to dress for winter conditions, monitor heating systems, and allow extra travel time during morning commutes.
This quiet but chilly pattern is expected to persist through late week, though forecasters note that conditions could shift if the storm track becomes more active. Additional updates or advisories may be issued if snow chances increase.
