The second low pressure ripple along the boundary will slide to our south later today, so although we may see some light mixed precipitation in some areas, we should have a little break before the next storm on Saturday. Right now that looks to begin in the early afternoon as a mix and unfortunately could turn in to a sizeable freezing rain event. As of now, temperatures are modeled to be well below freezing for the duration of the storm for all of central MD but with warm air aloft, the predominant type of precipitation would be sleet and freezing rain. That’s still a couple days away and one thing that the models have not done well with this winter is with temperatures. Modeled temperatures have been somewhat colder than what has actually happened, so it’s still possible for changes to the forecast.
I’ll update either later today or tomorrow as that could be a high impact event. Looking ahead, the train of winter storms looks to continue next week as early as Tuesday.
