BALTIMORE –Showers will continue to arrive across our area this evening from south to north. More showers & storms Wednesday.
The area of low pressure that has plenty of tropical moisture with it to our south continues to inch slowly northwestward while weakening. Areas of rain, showers, and thunderstorms located across Virginia and southern Virginia will arrive from south to north as the evening plays out. There could be weather issues happening at the Os game, so be prepared for possible delays and/or postponement. Once the rain arrives, it looks to remain light to steady.
Expect cloudy weather with showers and isolated thunderstorms overnight. Some of the storms could have locally drenching downpours. Low temperatures will be unseasonably mild with the clouds and humidity. Temperatures only dip down into the middle to upper 60s.
We’ll be dealing with the bulk of this weakening storm system on Wednesday. Expect scattered showers and storms throughout the course of the day. The morning hours look wettest with the widespread coverage and intensity of the showers & storms. During the afternoon, the showers become more hit or miss. A fun peeks of sun are even possible during the afternoon in-between clouds and showers. Highs top out in the middle 70s.
More showers are likely Wednesday night with lows in the middle to upper 60s.

Final rainfall totals should range from 0.50″ to 1″ in many areas with some spots receiving locally higher totals in spotty heavier rain bands. Areas that miss heavy rain bands could see totals less than 0.50″. With these type of rain totals, the ground will easily digest the rain. So widespread flooding is not currently in the forecast.
The storm system responsible for the rain will slowly lift out of the area Thursday into Friday. Thursday we may still be dealing with the back half of the storm with leftover scattered showers & isolated storms. This is especially true across central and northeastern Maryland. The day doesn’t look like a washout with highs in the upper 70s to near 80°.
Friday and Saturday continue to trend nicer and drier. Expect clouds with breaks of sunshine. An isolated shower or two are possible, but most of the time looks rain-free with highs in the upper 70s & lower 80s.
Sunday looks fantastic with highs in the middle 70s with partly sunny weather. We welcome in our new season of fall at 8:44 AM EDT Sunday.
While we start our first full week of fall dry, it does look like shower chances begin to increase by the middle of next week. Temperatures should stay comfortable in the 70s.
BALTIMORE, MD—The Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is asking residents to be on the lookout for cold-stunned sea turtles and marine mammals along the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic coast this winter. Cold-stunning occurs when water temperatures drop rapidly, causing animals to become lethargic and hypothermic. This condition can be fatal, especially for sea turtles.
According to DNR, cold-stunning typically affects sea turtles in late autumn and early winter. While sea turtles are most commonly affected, West Indian manatees are also susceptible.
Anyone who sees a cold-stunned animal should call the Maryland Natural Resources Police Hotline at 800-628-9944. It is important to maintain a safe distance, as these animals can be dangerous.
Sea turtles and marine mammals are protected by federal law. Harassing, feeding, or collecting these animals or their parts is illegal and can result in fines, imprisonment, and/or the seizure of vessels and personal property.

DMV residents are remembering former President Jimmy Carter, including one Maryland man who has a picture worth a thousand words.
Josh Davidsburg shared a photo of himself at 2-years-old with News4. The photo shows him sitting on Carter’s lap.
“Even though I don’t remember it, it’s still like a big part of my life,” Davidsburg said.
The adorable photo printed in a local paper was snapped during a Fourth of July parade in Atlanta in 1981.

“I just kind of wandered off and wandered up to Jimmy Carter and I said, ‘uppy’ and he picked me up and put me in his lap,” Davidsburg said.
In the photo, Davidsburg has an American flag in his mouth. He says the flag came from none other than Rosalynn Carter.
The memory was so special, he made sure to immortalize it.
“My wife actually printed it out and actually got a signed copy from him,” Davidsburg said.
Davidsburg lives near Baltimore now, but was born in Georgia when his father was a reporter at a TV station in Atlanta.

More than 40 years after this photo was taken, he says the once-in-a-lifetime encounter changed his life.
“For him it was probably nothing,” Davidsburg said. “I was this little kid that kind of hobbled up to him, but it kind of helped set me on the path of where I am today.”
Like his dad, Davidburg used to be a reporter, working up and down the East Coast for about a decade before becoming a Senior Lecturer teaching journalism at the University of Maryland, College Park.
“Going into reporting, it was the first kind of the biggest politician I’ve ever met and everybody else has kind of paled in comparison,” Davidsburg said.
He says while he and the rest of the world mourns former President Carter’s passing, they will also remember his enduring legacy forever.

“How many people can say that they not only did they live to 100, but they made such an amazing use of that time,” Davidsburg said. “Giving back to the country that he loved and the state and city that he loved.”
COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Maryland turned the ball over 25 times, blew a 17-point lead and was outrebounded in the second half.
Coach Brenda Frese still had plenty to be happy about.
“I thought it was a phenomenal game from two really competitive teams,” Frese said. “Credit Michigan State. We knew they were going to play hard for 40 minutes.”
No. 8 Maryland faced its biggest test in a while Sunday, and the Terrapins held off the No. 19 Spartans 72-66. It wasn’t a pretty game from an offensive standpoint, but the Terps were able to execute when they needed to at the end.

Up by two in the final minute, Shyanne Sellers found Christina Dalce on a pick-and-roll for an easy layup with 36.3 seconds left — her only points of the game. Michigan State didn’t score again, falling short in this matchup between two ranked Big Ten teams.
This was nearly a clash of unbeatens, but the Spartans (11-2, 1-1 Big Ten) lost to Alabama in their prior game.
Maryland (12-0, 2-0) has equaled the second-best start in team history.
“It’s one of the most competitive groups I’ve ever coached,” Frese said. “It’s not really about being undefeated. Of course we love it. I think it shows just the work that they’re putting in. But for us, as long as we just continue to keep our head down and work hard through this process, I think that’s where you’re seeing the results pay off.”
The Terrapins beat Duke last month, but this was their first ranked opponent since then. It was a physical game in which rebounds were not for the faint of heart.

“One thing I’ve loved about our team all year is our effort’s always been in a great space,” said Michigan State coach Robyn Fralick, whose team had a 10-1 edge in offensive rebounds in the second half.
Maryland let a big lead get away, but with the score tied at 57, Saylor Poffenbarger and Bri McDaniel made 3-pointers to put the Terps up by six.
McDaniel had to leave the game early in the fourth after falling to the ground with a thud, but she was able to return.
