Baltimore, Maryland – Maryland is expected to see a generally quiet stretch of winter weather next week, with limited chances for snow or rain and no strong signal for widespread travel disruptions from Monday through Friday.
According to the National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center, most of Maryland falls within a below-normal precipitation zone during the January 12–16 period. Temperatures are projected to trend above seasonal averages at times, reducing the likelihood of snow and favoring extended dry conditions, especially across central and southern parts of the state.
The Interstate 95 corridor, including Baltimore, Columbia, and the Washington suburbs, may see long stretches of dry weather with only isolated, low-impact precipitation chances. Western Maryland, including the higher elevations near Garrett and Allegany counties, could still see a few flurries or brief snow showers, though accumulations are expected to remain limited. Major routes such as I-95, I-70, I-83, and the Capital Beltway are not expected to face prolonged winter weather issues during this period.
The Maryland Department of Transportation typically advises drivers that isolated slick spots can still develop overnight, particularly on bridges and elevated roadways when temperatures dip near freezing. Early morning commuters should remain alert.
The quieter pattern looks to hold through much of the workweek, though minor disturbances cannot be ruled out. Overall, widespread winter weather impacts across Maryland appear unlikely through Friday.
