Freeze Warning in effect early Tuesday morning across much of Maryland

Much chillier weather has blown back into Maryland.

Freeze warning and unseasonably chilly temperatures in Maryland

With a clear sky and calmer wind tonight, temperatures will tumble after sunset. Many areas are going to have temperatures just below freezing by sunrise. You will want to protect any sensitive plants that you have outside. A Freeze Warning is in effect for the entire WJZ viewing area 2 a.m. until 10 a.m. Tuesday for low temperatures in the upper 20s to mid-30s. 

Following a cold morning, Tuesday will feature plenty of sunshine and pleasantly cool afternoon temperatures. Plan on upper 50s and lower 60s across our area on Tuesday afternoon. 

April showers Wednesday, Earth Day, across Maryland 

Wednesday is Earth Day and we'll have a milder day to enjoy for any Earth Day activities across the state. However, there will be more clouds and scattered rain showers around. A few rounds of light to moderate rain are possible; beginning in the morning. Despite the chance of rain, temperatures will peak in the upper 60s and 70s on Wednesday afternoon. 

The best weather days this workweek look to be Thursday and Friday. With a mostly sunny sky, temperatures both Thursday and Friday will climb into the upper 70s in the Baltimore metro. A few spots will reach 80° both afternoon. Isolated showers and storms will pop-up on Friday afternoon. 

The greatest chance of rain is west of Baltimore.

Expect showery, cooler weather this weekend 

This upcoming weekend trends cooler across Maryland, with rounds of scattered rain. Though, the weekend isn't looking like a washout.

Saturday will be the milder of the two days, with high temperatures in the mid to upper 60s. Sunday's temperatures may be a touch cooler. The O's games over the weekend should still be able to be played, but you may want to bring a rain poncho.
