Maryland Weather: Alert Day through Monday for strong winds
BALTIMORE– Winds will gust 45 to 55 mph overnight through Monday morning. Gusts to 40 mph continue Monday afternoon.
Wind Alerts
Most of the area on Sunday experienced widespread wind gusts of 40 to 50 mph. While the wind gusts were impressive, we still have not endured the core of strongest winds. We’ll see the wind gusts peak at their highest levels tonight through Monday morning.
The WJZ First Alert Weather Team continues an ALERT DAY through early Monday evening for strong to potentially damaging winds. Widespread wind gusts through Monday evening will reach 40 to 45 mph. Some isolated wind gusts of 50 to 55 mph are possible, especially overnight into Monday morning. You will want to secure any loose outdoor objects now before the strong winds arrive. There is also the possibility for isolated power outages where the strongest winds occur.
A Wind Advisory is in effect for the entire state of Maryland through Monday evening. The First Alert Weather team will continue to update you on impacts and reports as these high winds continue.
Tonight
Scattered snow flurries and snow showers early this evening will continue to slowly diminish. Expect very cold weather Sunday night with low temperatures in the 30s and wind-chills in the teens and 20s. Skies will clear late Sunday night into Monday morning. Winds will continue to gust 45 to 55 mph during the nighttime hours.
Monday
Temperatures begin to rebound Monday with highs back in the middle 50s, but strong winds continue with gusts 40 to 50 mph possible. We can expect mostly sunny skies to start the week. Wind gusts Monday afternoon will gradually step down to the 35 to 40 mph range.
Spring Tease
Sunshine and very nice weather will be around Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Look for highs in the upper 60s to middle 70s through late week.
A strong cold front will approach the region Friday bringing the chance for showers late in the day. Highs Friday should top out in the lower 70s before temperatures cool off next weekend.
Temperatures for the following week look much colder with highs only in the upper 40s to middle 50s.
WBFF — A Powerball ticket sold in Lanham has made one lucky player $1 million richer following Wednesday night’s drawing.
The ticket, which matched all five white balls but missed the red Powerball, is one of three significant wins in Maryland from the Dec. 10 drawing. The other two winning tickets include a $150,000 prize in Hughesville and a $50,000 prize in Bel Air.
The $1 million ticket was purchased at the 7-Eleven located at 7730 Finns Lane in Lanham, Prince George’s County.
Meanwhile, the $150,000 ticket, which included the Power Play option, was sold at the Jameson-Harrison American Legion Post 238 in Hughesville, Charles County.
The $50,000 ticket was bought at Klein’s Shoprite on North Main Street in Bel Air, Harford County.
None of these winning tickets have been claimed yet, and the Maryland Lottery is urging winners to sign their tickets and store them safely. Prizes over $25,000 must be claimed by appointment at Lottery headquarters within 182 days of the drawing date.
The Powerball jackpot, which has not been won since Sept. 6, has now rolled over to an estimated annuity value of $1 billion, with a cash option of $461.3 million for the next drawing on Saturday night. This marks the seventh-largest jackpot since Powerball began in 1992.
