Tuesday March 27 2018
Looking at the radar this morning we can see a large amount of rain from Texas to the Great Lakes. This is a stalled system that will send pulses of rain our way during the way, starting with today. The leading edge has some snow in the mountains, and we could have a little sleet mixed in as the ‘stuff’ arrives today. But this is the leading edge of warmer air that will break into Maryland over the next few days. There is a trade off as we aim for the 60s, there will be some showers. At this time, Opening Day for the Orioles may catch a break over Baltimore, but the threat of wet weather will be with us almost each day into the weekend.
