Maryland expecting a seasonal first day of summer

According the meteorological calendar - Monday is the first day of Summer with near seasonal temperatures to start the week.  The upcoming week looks to be mainly dry as well as temperatures will peak near 90 by the end of the week. 

Mild and mainly dry to the start the week

Maryland will continue to be under the influence of a early summer High Pressure pattern with relatively mild temperatures in the upper 70s and lower 80s through the first half of the work week. Very little rainfall will also set us up for likelihood of expanding drought conditions again when the new drought index comes out later this week. 

Summer-like temperatures return by week's end

Daytime high temperatures will warm up by week's end into the upper 80s to near 90 by Friday and Saturday - before dropping slightly by the end of this coming weekend. Limited rain chances will also increase as the weekend approaches.
