November 10 Strong Cold Winds Bring Mountain Snow West And Freezing Temps South

Monday, November 10 2025

The rain and thunderstorms last night included pockets of hail and downpours. Now that the storm is moving away, the colder winds are beginning to move in. Gusts of 20 to 30 mph will keep temps cold and bring snow into the high mountains to our west.

There will be some accumulating snow in the mountains, but the setup is not ideal. More snow will fall in West Virginia, but Garrett County MD, may still get a couple of inches. I’ll be there to show you later.

The pre-season winter blast will bring snow to the mountains overnight and through Tuesday Morning. Flurries may pass into metro areas before sunrise on Tuesday.

While the pattern relaxes during the week, there will continue to be an active pattern with more cold impulses to our north.

I want to show the wide view first, then our local forecast:

Weather Alerts

• Winter Weather Advisory includes Garrett County, MD
• Winter Storm Warning between Canaan Valley and Snowshoe, WV
• Freeze Warning: Calvert and St. Mary’s Counties in MD

My Call For Snowfall

• I am lowering my expectations for Garrett County to 1” to 3”, with more in the southern part of the county.
• Heavier snow will fall between Canaan Valley and Snowshoe, WV

WEATHER TODAY

Surface Weather

Heavy Lake Effect Snow is setting up a rare event over Lake Michigan due to the wind direction and combination of very warm water with the pre-season arctic air.

Snow will cross into the Appalachians, and freezing temps may reach the Gulf Coast by tomorrow morning.

The bulk of energy is dropping to our South!

Quick Cast

Storm Forecast Monday Morning to Wednesday Morning

Jet Stream: Tuesday Morning Vorticity

The energy will be south of Maryland. This does support some flurries or snow showers crossing over the mountains.

The best chance will be before dawn, but we could have flurries through noon.

Jet Steam: Height Anomaly Tuesday Morning

The Upper Low will be in New England.

The core of the cold at this 500mb, 18,000 Ft level will pass South of Maryland.

The FREEZE may reach the Gulf Coast. 30s will reach into Central Florida.

RESTATING MY MESSAGE ABOUT DYSLEXIA

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 can also 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
