BALTIMORE, Md. – A warm, breezy Sunday across central Maryland will end with showers and gusty winds as a cold front crosses the region by Monday morning. The stormy setup will bring wet roads, reduced visibility, and a quick drop in temperatures as drier, cooler air follows behind.
According to the National Weather Service in Baltimore/Washington, scattered showers will develop Sunday afternoon before expanding to widespread rain by nightfall. Winds will strengthen through the evening, gusting between 25 and 30 mph along the I-95 corridor and Inner Harbor. Rainfall totals may approach half an inch, enough to create slippery travel conditions and ponding on low-lying streets.
Motorists are advised to allow extra time on I-83, I-695, and major city arteries during the Monday morning commute. While the front will exit quickly, patchy fog could linger in valleys and near the Chesapeake Bay before sunshine returns later in the day.
Highs will dip from Sunday’s unseasonable warmth near 77°F to the upper 60s Monday. By Tuesday, Baltimore settles into classic fall weather—sunny skies, cooler mornings, and highs near 72°F. The pattern will hold through midweek, ideal for outdoor work, fall festivals, and Halloween decorating.
Midweek temperatures stay comfortably mild before another brief round of showers late Tuesday night or early Wednesday. The second half of the week looks mostly sunny with crisp, refreshing air typical of mid-October.
