Maryland Weather: Chill Sinks in Saturday, Brief Period of Calm Sunday
BALTIMORE — We will see a slight break in the dangerous wintry weather Sunday with partial sunshine and afternoon highs in the low 30s. Winds will also relax slightly, but it will still feel colder than the actual temperature.
Listed below are possible snowfall totals through Monday morning by 8am for two different models. You’ll notice both models agree on the forecasted amounts for Baltimore and Salisbury.
- GFS: Westminster, 3″; Baltimore, 3″, Salisbury, 5″.
- GRAF: Westminster, 1″, Baltimore, 3″, Salisbury, 6″.
Late Sunday storm expected to bring snow
Light snow will begin falling about 10:00pm Sunday night in the Baltimore metro area.
A winter storm watch has been issued for northern Maryland counties and the eastern shore ahead of our next storm. Total accumulations are expected to be anywhere from 4+ inches with periodic snowfall from Sunday night through Tuesday morning.
A winter storm warning has been issued for areas from Annapolis to DC with areas south of Baltimore expecting 6+ inches, with some areas expecting up to a foot of snow total.
By Monday’s morning rush hour, we could have anywhere from 2-4″ on the ground.
After a brief break, the storm will reorganize, and heavier convective bands could bring another 2-4″ to the area. The wintry precipitation is expected to end early Tuesday.
Areas along the I-70 corridor could see heavy bands of snow. Mountain regions in western Maryland could see up to a foot of snow.
Some areas may see lower snow totals if freezing rain or sleet mixes in.
High temperatures on Monday will barely reach 30 degrees, with lows Tuesday morning dropping into the upper teens to near 20. Wind chills will be even colder, in the low teens.
Frigid week ahead
A return to a mix of clouds and sunshine is expected from Tuesday through Friday. However, some of the coldest air of the season will settle over the region.
High temperatures will remain below freezing from Tuesday through Friday, with overnight lows dipping well into the teens. The coldest morning will likely be Thursday, when wind chills could fall to zero or below in some areas.
The cold weather will persist into next weekend, with highs in the 30s. Another storm system may bring additional wintry weather to the area late next weekend.
Stay tuned for updates as the forecast develops, and take necessary precautions to prepare for this extended period of winter weather.
Police said Dequan Gravely, 23, of Charles County, was driving northbound on Route 210 near Pine Drive when his Mercedes collided with the school bus turning left from the southbound lanes.
The driver of a car involved in a crash with a Prince George’s County school bus in Accokeek, Maryland, on Friday has been identified.
Prince George’s County police said Dequan Gravely, 23, of Bryans Road in Charles County, was driving northbound on Route 210 near Pine Drive around 7:20 a.m. when his Mercedes collided with the school bus turning left from the southbound lanes.
Investigators said the crash happened in the intersection, causing the school bus to flip onto its side. Gravely died at the scene.
The school bus driver was transported to a hospital and treated for injuries that were not considered life-threatening. Police said no students were on the bus at the time of the crash.
Investigators said they believe debris from the collision damaged a third vehicle. The driver of that vehicle “declined medical attention,” police said.
The Prince George’s County Police Department’s Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Unit is investigating. Anyone with information is asked to contact investigators at 301-731-4422.

A D.C. man won $5 million from a scratch-off lottery ticket in Maryland last week, and the matching number that netted him the prize happened to be his age.
Talk about a birthday surprise! A D.C. man won $5 million from a scratch-off lottery ticket in Maryland last week, and the matching number that netted him the prize happened to be his age.
Maurice Williams, a school bus driver in D.C., claimed the first top prize on a $5,000,000 LUXE scratch-off. He had used his $50 winnings from a previous LUXE scratch-off ticket to buy a new one the next day.
In a release from the Maryland Lottery, Williams said he didn’t know he had won until he scanned the ticket: “It’s crazy because the matching number was 59 and I just turned 59 the other day.”
Williams said he sat in shock for a while before calling his mother.
He said he plans to buy his mother a house with the winnings and then save up.
Two more top prizes from the scratch-off have yet to be claimed, the Maryland Lottery said, as well as nine $200,000 prizes, 10 $50,000 prizes and thousands of prizes ranging from $50 to $10,000.
