Maryland Weather: Heavy Fog Overnight, Rainy New Year’s Weather
BALTIMORE — High pressure off the coast continues to funnel moisture into our region. Cloudy, drizzly weather continues overnight with low visibilities.
A warm front is moving through the region overnight. Temperatures will remain in the upper 40s overnight, rising to the 60s by Sunday afternoon. Severe weather is not expected at this time, but the First Alert Weather Team will monitor a large band of moderate to heavy rainfall moving in Sunday night into Monday morning.
The large low pressure system moves out of the region Monday, leaving us with mostly sunny skies and highs in the 60s for Monday as well. Monday night, expect temperatures to be in the 40s.
Rain returns New Year’s Eve, with a low pressure system moving quickly across the country, bringing cloudy, rainy conditions to the region for New Year’s Eve.
This system exits New Year’s Day, but we could continue to see spotty showers New Year’s Day.
Cold air returns Thursday night into Friday, with morning lows Friday in the 20s. It’s possible we could see wintry weather return Friday.
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.
