Baltimore residents can anticipate a mostly sunny day ahead as high pressure takes charge to provide dry conditions throughout the region. Following an early sky dusted with stratocumulus clouds, the National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC forecasts these will dissipate as the day progresses, creating clearer skies by the afternoon. Temperatures are expected to rise to the mid-upper 30s, though the mountains will remain chillier in the 20s. The trend throughout the day should be for these clouds to gradually decrease in coverage, with mostly sunny skies expected across most of the forecast area by afternoon.
Overnight, the forecast remains dry aside from the Alleghenies, where a clipper system could sprinkle a few snow showers later at night. Those venturing outdoors can anticipate low temperatures lingering in the upper teens and lower 20s.

Elsewhere, a mix of sun and clouds will hold in generally dry conditions.

As this system arrives, “snow showers will start to progress into the Alleghenies by Tuesday afternoon,” the National Weather Service stated. The showers are expected to persist through Tuesday night, bringing several more inches of snow to the mountains. Areas farther east might catch a stray flurry or snow shower but will predominantly experience dry conditions with sharply falling temperatures and potentially perilous wind chills…
