Friday January 4 2019

It is Friday and that means rain, even in the new year. Many of us start with frost, and the day will remain cloudy. But this new storm will bring the wet weather tonight and Saturday. There is plenty of moisture flowing north again, but no really cold air around to team up with. The outlook has us drying out with sunshine for the Ravens playoff game in Baltimore on Sunday.

Next week gets a little more interesting. However a Tuesday storm could arrive with some ice on the north side before a brief warm up then followed by colder air.

Next Tuesday will bring the next storm. This may start with a band of icy mix to our north before pumping in warmer air with rain. Then a cool down when the storm departs.

Temperature Outlook

Mid 40s through the weekend.

Next week: The warm up on Tuesday will be AFTER the chance of morning ice on the north end… THEN followed by cooler air.

Snow Day Kit

Our ritual the night before a storm is finally in one kit. Maybe if more Maryland kids had this, the storm would reach us 🙂

This includes a very soft raglan Tee printed inside out with #FITF AND the check list, #FITF spoon for under your pillow, ice cube tray with snowflake shapes, chalk, a #FITF wrist-band, a mini SnowStix, and a bag to carry it all in.
The introduction special price will end tonight.
This will also help us give a free Snow Day Kit to each of the Just In Power Kids.
