Rain Today; Chance of Snow Showers Tomorrow

A conveyor belt of moisture originating in the tropical Pacific continues to slide up the coast ahead of a cold front. Expect periods of rain through late afternoon today. Temperatures will continue to drop through the day, falling into the 40s by evening.

The front clears the area tonight, bringing an end to the rain and allowing colder air to filter in. Meanwhile, a potent upper level system will swing through tomorrow bringing the possibility of snow squalls during the afternoon, mainly across the mountains. Brief isolated snow showers could make it into Central Maryland, with little to no accumulation expected. Temperatures will be above freezing (mid to upper 30s) so any accumulation will quickly melt.

As quickly as the snow showers move in, they will move out and high pressure takes control for the remainder of the week.

Wednesday will be dry and cool with highs in the mid to upper 30s.

A weak cold front will cross on Thursday with increased clouds followed by another area of high pressure that will keep us dry through the weekend. Highs Thursday through Sunday will be in the upper 30s to low 40s.
