Evening / Overnight Edition · Saturday, November 7, 2026

Good evening, Maryland. The wind that pushed you around all afternoon is finally standing down, and what’s left behind is a clean, cool, star-filled night — the kind where you’ll want the extra blanket but not much else. NWS Baltimore/Washington (issued 2:14 PM) and NWS Wakefield (2:36 PM) both describe a dry, seasonably cool pattern settling in behind yesterday’s front, with high pressure building in through the weekend. No Maryland watches, warnings, or advisories are active tonight — a rare, genuinely quiet overnight across the entire state.

Tonight’s Timeline

  • Early evening (6-9 PM): Winds out of the west, still gusty in spots — 15-20 mph near the Bay and over the mountains, lighter inland. Skies clearing nicely east of I-81; some lingering wave clouds/stratocu lurk over the far western ridges into the evening.
  • Mid-evening (9 PM-midnight): Winds relax several more mph across the lowlands. Temperatures slide steadily through the 40s across central Maryland, 50s holding a bit longer near the coast.
  • Overnight (midnight-6 AM): Light, mostly clear conditions areawide. Coldest readings settle in just before sunrise, with patchy frost possible in sheltered valley spots in Garrett and Allegany, though no formal frost products are posted for Maryland tonight.
  • Sunday sunrise: Crisp start, quick warm-up under a building sun — breezy again by midday as winds pick back up out of the west.

Western Maryland

Garrett County (Deep Creek / Oakland): Tonight’s low near 34° — upper 30s to mid 30s — under mostly cloudy skies, winds W 10-15 mph. The coldest spot on the map tonight by a wide margin; have the gloves ready if you’re out late. Sunday rebounds nicely to 51° under mostly sunny skies, still breezy.

Allegany County (Cumberland): A few lingering sprinkles possible early this evening (10% chance) before clearing out. Low near 39°, mostly cloudy, W wind 10-14 mph. Sunday climbs to a pleasant 59° and mostly sunny.

Northern & Central Maryland

Washington County (Hagerstown): Low near 40°, partly cloudy, winds W 9-15 mph tapering down from the afternoon’s breeziness. Sunday looks great — sunny and 63°.

Frederick & Carroll Counties: Low near 41°, partly cloudy skies with winds W 8-13 mph. A comfortable, quiet night for stargazing if you’re up in the Catoctins. Sunday brings full sun and a seasonable 64°.

Baltimore Metro

Baltimore City & County, Harford, Howard, Anne Arundel: Low near 45°, partly cloudy with west winds 13 mph diminishing after dark. A genuinely pleasant November night — light jacket weather on the harbor, nothing more dramatic than that. Sunday: sunny, high near 64°, still a bit breezy.

DC Suburbs

Montgomery County: Low near 42°, mostly clear, winds NW 10-14 mph easing overnight. A touch cooler than the city core thanks to the inland location.

Prince George’s County: Tracking closely with Montgomery — low near 42°, mostly clear and calm by the predawn hours. Sunday: sunny and 62°.

Southern Maryland

Charles, Calvert, St. Mary’s Counties: Low near 39°, mostly clear, winds W 12 mph tonight, backing southwest by morning. The clearest, calmest skies in the state tonight — good night to look up. Sunday: sunny and 63°.

Upper Eastern Shore

Cecil, Kent, Queen Anne’s, Talbot, Caroline Counties: Low near 45°, clear skies, winds NW 10-15 mph. Milder than the western shore tonight thanks to the Bay’s moderating influence. Sunday: sunny, high near 61°.

Lower Eastern Shore

Dorchester, Wicomico, Somerset Counties: Low near 43°, clear, light west wind around 8 mph. A calm, quiet stretch across the lower Shore farmland. Sunday: sunny and 60°.

Ocean City & the Coast

Worcester County: The mildest spot on tonight’s map — low only around 48° under clear skies, with west winds around 14 mph gradually relaxing. Seas remain a bit lively from the day’s gusty westerlies, though winds are offshore-oriented (W) rather than onshore, which tends to keep surf and rip-current concerns modest tonight — still, no official surf-zone statement is in effect, so swimmers should use standard caution. Sunday: sunny, high near 60°, breezy again in the afternoon.

Active Hazards

None in Maryland tonight. For context, NWS Baltimore/Washington has posted a Freeze Warning and Frost Advisory for parts of central and northern Virginia (midnight to 9 AM Sunday) as those areas decouple under the building high pressure — but no such products have been issued for any Maryland zone at this time. Maryland’s own Hazardous Weather Outlook (4:57 PM) likewise lists no current watches or warnings for the state’s waters or land areas.

Severe & Flooding

No severe weather or flooding threats tonight or Sunday. High pressure is firmly in control, with the next chance of any unsettled weather not arriving until late next week (see below).

Winds & Chesapeake Bay

Gusty west-to-northwest winds persist into this evening across the Bay and open waters, with gusts near 30 mph possible at times — solidly into Small Craft Advisory territory, per the Mount Holly and Baltimore/Washington marine discussions, though as of this writing no SCA has been formally posted for Maryland waters. Winds ease through the night and continue subsiding into Sunday, taking on more of a westerly bent. Boaters should expect a bumpy ride on the open Bay this evening before things settle down overnight.

Overnight Lows by Zone

Zone Low Tonight
Western Mountains (Garrett) 34°
Cumberland / Hagerstown 39-40°
Frederick / Carroll 41°
Baltimore / DC Corridor 42-45°
Southern Maryland 39°
Eastern Shore 43-45°
Ocean City 48°

Looking Ahead

Sunday stays dry and seasonable statewide — sunny skies, highs in the 60s for most of central and eastern Maryland, 50s in the mountains, still a bit breezy out of the west. Monday brings another dry frontal passage with renewed gusty northwest winds, but temperatures hold steady. Tuesday and Wednesday actually warm up further, with highs reaching the mid-to-upper 60s and even near 70° in spots as a southwest flow takes over ahead of the next real system. That system — a potentially strong coastal storm or nor’easter — is being watched for late next week (Thursday-Friday), bringing a return to rain chances and a sharp temperature drop behind it, with some higher-elevation snow not out of the question. Confidence is still low on timing and track; we’ll keep tracking it as the week unfolds.
