The latest weather report for Washington, DC, and Baltimore, Maryland, describes the present situation and gives a forecast for the next several days. As high pressure briefly returns, Baltimore residents may expect a calmer day with fewer winds and somewhat milder temperatures, according to the National Weather Service.
High pressure is moving back from the south through tonight, concentrating over the central and southern Appalachians. According to the prediction, mild upslope flow will cause mid- to high-level clouds to persist, particularly west of the Blue Ridge. By the afternoon, the clouds should begin to lift, revealing mostly to partially bright sky. Winds will progressively lessen in the evening, despite high west-to-northwest gusts this morning. Temperatures are predicted to fall into the low to mid-30s tonight.
Regarding the immediate forecast for Monday through Tuesday evening, a drying trend is anticipated at the start of the workweek. A swift-moving cold front, however, is expected to move through the area Monday night and into early Tuesday, according to the National Weather Service. Areas suffering from a protracted drought might receive some much-needed precipitation from this frontal system, albeit in small amounts—typically less than a tenth of an inch.
Monday’s high temperatures are expected to rise significantly above normal averages, possibly reaching the low to mid-60s. The National Weather Service warns that “the cold front quickly exits the region Tuesday morning into Tuesday midday allowing for brief high pressure to build back over the region.” Post-frontal winds are expected to turn to the west and northwest with gusts reaching 20 to 30 mph before calming Tuesday night.
Wednesday is predicted to be another dry day as we move deeper into the week. The Baltimore area is expected to have rain from Wednesday night through Thursday due to a more complicated weather system that originated in the middle Plains. Going into the weekend, the mountain areas are expected to have the most snow and cooler temperatures.
The forecast’s Marine section states that small craft advisories are in effect into the early afternoon for mariners, with gusts of up to 20 knots. Customers using the waterways should be aware that Monday’s winds will shift to the south, and that conditions for small craft may continue through Tuesday before the cold front moves in. After the front, gusts might continue to rise, and there might be brief intervals when gale-force gusts are feasible.
