December 2 Today Sunny And Mild Then Rain Again Tomorrow
December 2 2022
Friday Morning Update
Stop me if you have heard this from me before: We are in a pattern that is repeating every 3 days. This part is the cold morning, then a sunny and mild afternoon. It will be followed by another rain event that will arrive in the morning, then end mid day, only to be followed by a final brief line of showers and gusty winds. That will be our Saturday. Then colder on Sunday for the Ravens game… and we look to next week for more action and a change!
It does look like the winter pattern will kick in by next weekend, but before then temps may boost higher briefly in the middle of the week.
Headlines
- Today: Sunny and Mild
- Tomorrow: Morning Rain, Afternoon Showers
- Sunday: Sunny And Cooler
- Next Week: Warming Before The Winter Pattern Kicks In
