After Saturday’s unsettled weather, Sunday brings a much nicer day across Maryland. While a stray afternoon shower or thunderstorm can’t be ruled out in a few locations, especially near the mountains or along the stalled boundary, most Marylanders will stay dry and enjoy several hours of sunshine. Temperatures will climb into the mid to upper 80s with continued summer humidity, making for a great day to be outside for many. The lingering front is expected to weaken while high pressure begins building into the region, leading to quieter weather overall.
Early Morning (6:00 AM – 9:00 AM)
Sunday morning starts off much quieter than Saturday.
Across nearly all of Maryland, expect partly cloudy skies with comfortable visibility and dry roads. Overnight showers should have ended before sunrise, leaving only a few damp spots in isolated areas. Temperatures will begin the day in the mid to upper 60s across Western Maryland and lower 70s around the Baltimore metro, Southern Maryland, and the Eastern Shore.
Travel conditions will be excellent statewide with no widespread weather-related delays expected.
