BALTIMORE — Good Wednesday night!
Another round of dense fog is expected overnight, with visibility dropping below a quarter mile at times. If you’re heading out late or early Thursday, be prepared for reduced visibility and allow extra travel time.
Thursday will start off dry, but clouds will thicken through the day as a warm front lifts north. Rain develops Thursday evening, with the steadiest and heaviest rainfall expected between 4 PM and midnight. A second round of rain moves through Friday morning along an approaching cold front before tapering off.
We’ll catch a break from steady rain on Saturday, though skies will remain mostly cloudy and temperatures stay mild.
Attention then turns to our next storm system on Sunday. Our two most reliable medium- to long-range models are currently split on precipitation type and intensity. Both indicate colder air will move in Sunday night. The key question is whether enough moisture will remain in place as that cold air arrives to transition rain over to snow.
At this point, one model shows a stronger offshore storm, with rain changing to snow Sunday night and the potential for a few inches of accumulation. The other also tracks the system offshore but depicts a weaker storm, favoring mainly rain with perhaps a few snowflakes mixing in late Sunday night.
We should gain better clarity on the storm’s track and precipitation type as early as tomorrow. Stay tuned for updates.
Thanks,
Dylan
