Overview
- Rain and snow develop Saturday morning with a brief burst possible mid-morning before tapering by early afternoon.
- Minor accumulation from a trace to about 1 inch is expected, mainly north and west of Baltimore and at higher elevations, with melting likely as temperatures approach 40.
- Slick spots are possible during the morning near freezing, prompting the Impact Weather Day designation.
- If Saturday’s coverage is extensive, models favor Sunday’s coastal snow staying offshore, but a weaker Saturday system could allow light snow into the corridor.
- The best chance for an inch or more on Sunday is in Southern Maryland and the Lower Eastern Shore, with only a slight chance that flurries reach the city.
