Maryland Weather: Cooler Friday; rain expected this weekend
BALTIMORE- No records were broken at BWI Thursday. The 90 degrees will remain our record from 2018 since we only saw 89-90 at BWI. Very warm nonetheless.
For this morning temps are starting out in the 60s and 70s across the state. We will see partly sunny conditions throughout the next several hours of the morning and into the afternoon.
A backdoor cold front will gradually move south and stall across Virginia by Friday afternoon changing our forecast for the evening and weekend.
Any rain chances Friday will be to our west and south. With a dry day expected.
Highs in the 70s for the afternoon.
Western Maryland may see scattered showers and storms later in the day into Friday night.
For the evening, lows bottom out in the 50s and upper 40s.
Better rain chances move in on Saturday through Sunday as a cold front moves into the region. Saturday doesn't look to be a washout, but have some backup indoor plans in case you get caught under a shower.
Better chances for steadier rain move in Sunday. The biggest question is how early the rain moves out, which will determine how warm it will get Sunday afternoon.
If rain leaves the area earlier, temps will reach well into the 70s, but if clouds and showers stick around into the afternoon and evening, some areas may not get out of the 60s. At this point it appears any rain Sunday will be most steady in the morning
The unsettled weather pattern continues next week with scattered storm chances from Monday through at least mid-week with a break or two in between.
Temperatures will return to the 80s next week, with the warmest day likely occurring Wednesday with highs in the mid to upper 80s.
