mostly cloudy skies, the winds are calm, 56% relative humidity and 30.01 holding steady on the barometer it's a rather dry start for now. as i said the atmosphere is still dry and it has to saturate yet. 30 degrees is the temperature we begin in baltimore. down in salisbury, 39 degrees, hagerstown, 45 degrees there and as you can see, clouds are beginning to move in from the and west. that will continue to be the case the head of the low pressure center that is going to be moving in our direction. that low pressure center will bring with it, a quarter avenue an inch of rain today and through tomorrow through the morning hours and then it will dissipate. we do see the temperatures climbing to 66 degrees for the high once again. the temperatures will cool down behind the next front which brings additional rainfall for tomorrow morning. by tomorrow morning, it moves out. high pressure moves in and we will be talking about the next chance of rain due to the low pressure center for sunday night into your monday as we get into the next workweek. we will have a jet stream dipping to the south f

let's look at the numbers right now we have for you. 42 degrees for you, 70% the humidity.arometer rising. north wind, 15, gusting to 25 miles per hour and the showers are east of us now. they are a little lower because of all the rain. actually this includes yesterday to a great extent. so tree pollens at 60 which is in the moderate range, low to moderate range. right now, pollen count a little lower today because of all the rain we've had in the area. temperatures elsewhere around the region, annapolis 43, ocean city 46, crisp feels 41. so it cools down as you move to the northwest, like west minister at 39. we told you to wear something warm. 33 at mchenry right now. and only 32 at chicago, 28 green bay. bismarck's warm to 41, but only 25 up in international falls. there's some cold air coming in behind this weather system. the heaviest rains are off over the atlantic ocean. so do some lingering showers behind the system. low pressure center down in southeast virginia moving out to sea. and this colder air off high pressure coming in now. so we'll get a little spike of c

and humidity levels at 92 percent. so we will continue to see that moisture riding up out of the south. almanac page shows the temperatures today at 42. normally we are at 49. so temperatures slightly cooler and probably because of the cloud cover we have out there and the rain showers that began in the mid afternoon. state temperatures continue to go down a bit tonight. as they fall a couple more degrees we may see snow mixing in late overnight to the rush hour. so be prepared for that. so most of the snow is on grassy surfaces and on the car. if you are parked outside. and should be light in nature. winds out of the northeast at 10. and baltimore. 13 in d.c. northeast wind in dover. and salisbury. here is a look at the radar. in the form of in green here. form of precipitation in green. mixing with snow to the south of us. as the moisture continues to move north, and temperatures fall. we could see a little bit of the snow changing more into snow through the overnight hours. and it won't be a lot. which is good. like

humidity levels at 56 percent. as the moisture continues to get closer. we will see the level go up. as far as the almanac today. high of 65 degrees. low was 44. and normally we should be at 57. so temperatures are above normal. we will see the temperatures getting back into the range of where they should be as we go into the week. as this system brings in cooler air behind it. 58 degrees baltimore. looking at 54 in d.c. 44 in salisbury. cooler. and dover 48. and south of dc 52 degrees. in fredericksberg. we will see the clouds continue to gather through the overnight. so we will see sun and clouds through the day tomorrow. but late in the day. chance for showers increases, as the moisture builds in. model data shows through most of the day we should be dry. western maryland seeing the showers working in. by friday morning, definitely get downpours of rain along the 95 corridor. so we can probably see maybe a quarter of an inch, as much as maybe a little more. closer to inch. depending on some areas north. in fact, the future scan shows moisture coming do

humidity levels at 87 percent.looks like we 10 to see the moisture building out of the south but notice the temperatures today were the 40's and we will continue to see the warmer air building in over the next couple days which is good news in hagerstown sitting at 38. harrisburg 40 degrees. 40 in salsbury and we will watch the area of low pressure track and head out over the atlantic and showers in the form of rain and back to the west a little bit of snow mixing in and the temperatures drop and rain snow and then just snow and change back to the rain snow mix by tomorrow. future scan you can see the eastern shore of precip. to salsbury, ocean city out towards dover so looks like that area on the he shall shore may get rain snow and then short lived as the storm continues to push north and bit of wrap around action as the storm heads out into the atlantic then we see the clouds breaking which is good news. here's the weekend with i-95 corridor anywhere from inch or less. not a trace out there mixing in. as on the
