An area of low pressure developing over eastern Texas will move along the Gulf Coast and then up the coast Friday. With a lack of cold air, expect light rain or wintry mix to develop late Thursday night, changing to rain.

The rain will continue Friday into Friday night. Highs Friday will be in the mid 40s.

As the storm moves up the coast, major snowfall is expected to our north into New England.

Wintry Day on Tap

Current Surface Map
The Nor’Easter that was forecast to move up the coast will be close enough to the state to bring wintry precipitation, mainly across central and eastern Maryland.

The storm is currently situated off the Delmarva coast this morning. It will continue to strengthen as it moves north and will also continue to push light wintry precipitation into the state. Winds will increase today and into tomorrow, gusting to around 30mph.

Light precipitation has pushed into central Maryland where a light rain/snow/graupel mix is currently falling. Further south and east, light rain is falling.

The mix across central Maryland will eventually change to all snow later this afternoon and into this evening as colder air flows in from the north and evaporative cooling continues. The heaviest precip will fall late this afternoon and evening and the snow will taper off overnight.

Mostly Sunny Today; Nor’Easter Threat Diminishes

Current Surface Map
Today will be mostly sunny with highs in the upper 40s to low 50s. Clouds will increase tonight as low pressure over the southeast turns the corner and begins to move up the coast.

Models are converging on a solution that brings the low up the coast, but farther out to sea, meaning we will be on the fringe of it.

Rain chances and winds increase tomorrow, mainly for central and eastern Maryland, and taper off to the west. Highs will be in the mid 40s.

Expect light rain to continue tomorrow night, tapering off early Thursday. Highs will approach 50 degrees under decreasing clouds.

Behind the low, high pressure builds in for the end of the week and the weekend. Highs Friday will be around 50 under sunny skies.

Decreasing Clouds Today; Coastal Storm Midweek

Current Surface Map
High pressure will build into the area today and bring a return to sunshine for this afternoon and tomorrow. Highs both days will be around 50 degrees.

Computer models are in agreement that an area of low pressure currently over Missouri will dive to the Gulf Coast where it will intensify and turn the corner to move up the eastern seaboard.

While they agree on this much, there is slight disagreement in the eventual track and as is always the case with these storms, the exact track will determine our weather and a small change in the track can have drastic effects on the forecast.
