Monday Morning Report
The rain held off most of Sunday but made a return last night. Now, we are under the influence of the chilly air AND a nearly stalled boundary. This will make for a very wet day for some, the edge of showers across Central Maryland with late winter chill, and just cold to our north.
The coldest air will arrive after this storm passes and could bring us freezing air Wednesday morning. Then, one more storm will bring us a few more days of rain at the end of the work week.
Reminder: The lack of rainfall has left us with a deep hole to climb back from. This week will help move us in the right direction.
Sunrise at 6:41 AM
Sunset at 7:37 PM

Drought Reminder
Rainfall Deficit at BWI
The chill has settled in for a few days AND the nearly stalled system to our south will pump in more rain all day.
The next impulse of colder air will bring late snow to the mountains AND the potential for a morning freeze into parts of the Mid-Atlantic by Wednesday morning.
A light wind FROM THE NORTH is the source of our cooler air.
Steady rain will continue over Southern Maryland and Delaware. The edge of showers will be in Central Maryland. To the north, it will be mostly dry, chilly, and damp. There may be some light showers or drizzle.
Rain will continue across Southern Maryland
AND
Snow will develop in the high mountains of Western Maryland.
Gusts to 30 mph will introduce the wind chill back into our conversation.
Remaining chilly and wind chills in the 30s.
The core of the cold air will pass to our north… The coldest temps for us will be Wednesday morning.
This is a winter-like pattern but modified for early April. It will be chilly, and mornings may drop below freezing in many areas mid-week.
This will then help a new storm develop with more needed rain at the end of the week.
This has the looks of a chilly and wet pattern for the Eastern US.
The next storm will develop in the deep trough across the Eastern US. It has the potential to be a slow-moving system with persistent rain for a few days.
We start the week with afternoons in the 40s and mornings in the 30s. Wednesday morning will be the coldest, with a wider net of freezing air.
The next storm brings rain on Thursday and Friday. The weekend storm behavior is still being watched, but it may relax and bring back warmer air on Sunday.

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here, you may have missed it: I have dyslexia and found out during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I also can make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. There has been no editor who can check my work while writing and to have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
