November 18 Warm Day Stormy Evening Clearing For Lunar Eclipse

Forecast

Thursday November 18

The weather patterns are arriving faster (a theme to consider into the winter). This means after a warm day, the rain and some storms may arrive in western areas before dark, and most of us get it this evening. But also, most of us will begin to clear out around midnight.

The Lunar Eclipse early Friday morning should be viewable in most areas. More on that below. 

 

Morning Surface Weather

This morning is relatively mild with an area of thick fog in northeastern Maryland. But warmer air is streaming in, and we will get up to the 70s in many areas today.

The cold front will bring in rain later today and this evening. It will take until Friday morning to clear the Lower Eastern Shore.

Morning Temperatures

 

What to wear?

This morning a jacket, this afternoon a T-shirt, then umbrella or rain coat this evening. If you have after school sports, the rain may reach you, especially west of Baltimore.
