Big Weather Shift Coming To Maryland: See New Forecast

Seasons seem less distinct in the Baltimore region these days, with hints of just about every type of major weather pattern hitting the area over the past several weeks, including two tornadoes on Monday.

The next dramatic shift up: spring and summer-like sun, forecasters said.

Maryland is likely to see a continued warming trend this weekend as a clipper system moves into the state, according to the National Weather Service.

In the Baltimore region, highs will approach 68 degrees on Friday, 62 on Saturday and will exceed 70 degrees by Sunday. Cooler numbers could be possible in northeast Maryland and along the Chesapeake Bay.

Some rainfall is possible this weekend in two main bursts. Rain showers and a few thunderstorms are possible Friday afternoon into Saturday morning as a cold front drops through. Conditions are expected to dry out Saturday and Sunday ahead of another front, which brings rain chances Sunday evening and into the overnight hours.

Early next week, another shift in the jet stream will allow a fresh surge of colder air to spill into Maryland, according to a recent AccuWeather forecast.

Temperatures in the Baltimore region will drop to around 50 degrees by Tuesday and remain in the 50s until later in the week.

Looking ahead, Marylanders should expect additional back-and-forth swings between warm and chilly air into April, AccuWeather predicts.

"Do not pack your winter coat away yet. The late-March pattern remains highly volatile, with more swings between warm and cold ahead," AccuWeather senior meteorologist Tyler Roys said.
