Maryland Weather: Second Round Of Wintry Weather In The Forecast

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Another round of winter weather is heading to our area Wednesday evening.

After a quiet and warmer day on Tuesday, Wednesday will be much colder with highs only in the 30s.  The active pattern then resumes as our next storm system is set to arrive Wednesday night.

Clouds will likely increase late in the day Wednesday as another storm system approaches from the southwest. The main difference with this system is that cold air will likely remain locked in thanks to an Arctic air mass anchored to our north. Temperatures will be cold enough Wednesday night to deal with snow on the front end of the storm and accumulating snowfall is certainly within reason. As temperatures warm during the day, we will likely see a transition to sleet and freezing rain for a period before the storm exits Thursday night. Thursday is expected to be a wintry mess, nonetheless.
