BALTIMORE, Md. – A thin layer of fog lingers along the Inner Harbor this morning, glimmering in early light before retreating under a clear, cool sky. After days of dry and breezy weather, central Maryland is poised for a stretch of calm fall sunshine before rain returns late this weekend.
According to the National Weather Service in Baltimore/Washington, Thursday will stay bright and seasonable with highs near 56°F and light west winds around 10 mph. The mild pattern continues through Friday as temperatures rise to near 57°F, perfect for commuters, outdoor projects, or late-season leaf cleanup across Baltimore and surrounding counties.
Farther west, winds over the Chesapeake and tidal Potomac will ease today after earlier gale warnings, improving boating conditions through the afternoon. However, forecasters warn that by Saturday, a low-pressure system from the Ohio Valley will bring increasing clouds and a 40 percent chance of rain by evening. Showers may linger into Sunday morning, creating slick travel conditions along I-95 and reduced visibility near the Bay Bridge and harbor areas.
Temperatures will stay mild through the weekend, with highs in the upper 50s to low 60s before dipping slightly early next week. Monday looks dry and cooler as winds shift northwest, reinforcing that late-fall feel just ahead of the Thanksgiving travel rush.
The G4 solar storm that sparked widespread Northern Lights earlier this week has mostly faded, though minor GPS and communication disruptions remain possible. For now, Baltimore enjoys a brief, steady rhythm—cool mornings, golden afternoons, and one more dry stretch before November’s next wet turn.
