A widespread freeze likely across Maryland Tuesday night

Cooler weather has blown back into Maryland, behind Easter Sunday rain. Another push of cold air arrives tonight, into Tuesday. Mid-week marks the chilliest point of the forecast, followed by a warming trend.

A Freeze Watch is in effect for Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. Gardeners, sensitive plants will need to be covered or moved indoors. 

Chilly weather returns to Maryland through Wednesday

A reinforcing shot of colder air will arrive with a chance of sprinkles and spotty rain showers this evening. Temperatures drop back into the low to mid-40s in many neighborhoods by sunrise on Tuesday morning. 

Tuesday will feature plenty of sunshine. But, it will be chillier. Temperatures only peak in the low to mid-50s on Tuesday afternoon. Breezy winds will make it feel even chillier. It’ll trend even colder on Tuesday night. A widespread freeze is likely by Wednesday morning across most of Maryland.  Temperatures plunge into the mid and upper 20s outside of the Baltimore Beltway and closer to 30° in the city. 

Cool sunshine continues through Thursday, ahead of warmer weather. 

Nice spring weekend weather in Baltimore 

The second weekend of April looks to be another winner! There is a chance of brief light rain on Saturday. Aside from that, the forecast looks great for plans. Temperatures peak in the mid-70s on Saturday and closer to  70° on Sunday.

Much warmer weather moves into Maryland next workweek.
