kent island. and over in rock hall at 55. 63/46 today. 63 is normal for the middle of april.. 46, the low. 42, 25 are the normals right now. they just come up one degree again. 72, the record high. 1974. and 3 degrees in 1987. right now, there's the breeze. 21, 32, 23, 15. with higher gusts over the next hour or two. now, the rain we saw last night, just a little bit. most of it fell really early this morning. some areas picked up a half inch. most areas are only about a third of an inch. the bulk of it offshore. to the north and northeast. it will be cooling down. a little snow in the extreme northwest. not much. there goes the storm. sunshine, clear conditions. looks like a great start to the weekend. it will cool down a little bit on saturday. and a little cooler on sunday night. sunday night, the second front coming through. maybe, maybe kicks up a brief sprinkle or flurry of snow, mainly to the north of the city. maybe just totally enough for that. southwest winds at 5 to 10 knots on the bay. small craft advisory, until 11:00 tonight. forecast, then, tonight. generally c

the route 50 bridge is a headache on kent island as you pass over towards east ton and st -- easton and st. michael. it's not kind that will come down points south of us and the district. let's show you some of our hd abc2 weather bug cameras. it gets much more significant as you go closer into d.c., coming down here, kind of tough to see at times. that's one of the bigger headaches. alexandria, you can see the snow coming down in washington. so a headache. i want to make sure. visibility getting reduced towards bwi. some places coming down and that cloud deck sinking. air temps getting right to the point where we could see some of the snow sticking out there. dulles, winchester, baltimore, one above freezing. the eastern shore you're right at that freezing point. you have to watch out, especially the elevated bridge surfaces. that's where we're likely to see snow sticking. 40 in the inner harbor. 37 in cambridge. satellite radar showing the back side will be a short event. it's poor timing in terms of all the monday evening traffic. this will continue to push, ending from west to east

through really close to denton in queen anne's county, some of the bands move their way in across the kent island area as well. the air at the surface is so dry that a lot of this is not touching the ground. but if you do get through one of those brief snow bursts, quick black ice always a threat and really it's tough to see same color as the road, bridges, overpasses, places like the kent narrows bridge, where you want to be extra cautious driving when you have the brief snow bursts and the air temp so far below freezing, now we are at 30 but we were in 20s for much of the day and had a tough time ever getting above 32, the old freezing mark today. 31 the high out at dwi after a morning low of 13 tropical degrees, the old record was four above. that's cold, right? lisa hayward spielman sending us this shop of dylan and riley ice skating in the back yard. let the hose run and pretty soon you've got an ice skating rink. frostburg, they still have plenty of snow to the ground here in western maryland. if you're a skier or snowboarder, head out to wisk peer because we are going to get much milder he

the warm air was with us all afternoon long with sunshine coming out there. 61 n at kent island. these are the normal temperatures for the second week in april. amazing here in this portion of the country for january. 59 was the afternoon high today. 39 with the rain early this morning. the record is 68 and 7 below 0. 1982, that was a cold one. oakland just shifted to the west at 16. the wind gusts up in the mountains could get to 30-40 miles an hour. we'll see strong winds late tonight, tomorrow morning. but they'll be out of the west, northwest. that will drag the cold air in with the rain this morning. quickly moved away from the area. saw that bright sunshine. the front to the west of us now. essentially i think we're going to look for partly cloudy tonight. snow showers breaking out along the great lakes. that will be in garret county by late tonight and tomorrow. nothing here until maybe thursday night. maybe a few snow showers with the next front coming in with cold air. friday into saturday, a warm front will begin to approach. it may produce some clouds and light precipi

i suspect naptown annapolis could have a coating and kent island and eastern shore and if it didn't stick on the roads or doesn't lock like it stuck, well, maybe -- look like it stuck, well, maybe the roads were too warm. there could be icy spots at this pulled out of here. next disturbance producing just flurries but looks like that one is losing its grip and punch and we will break the cloud up heading through this morning. temperatures now 29 here in baltimore and hovering around freezing for all of us. and we are bouncing off the bottom. it's warmer than yesterday. we will have sun today and we will have dry weather excuse me through tomorrow. and mild stuff. check this out. our temperatures will be in response to the wind, the wind themselves brought in the cold air. the wind will shift to the south. and that's what is going to warm us up. so we stayed below freezing yesterday with a high of 31. and we will be back in the 50s tomorrow. we promised you would get there and that will stay in the 50s to start off the weekend as well. so early light snow or flurries i should adjust that.

metro area all starting to change right now as you see, 43 in westminster, 53 in annapolis and kent island and winds are fluctuating, everything is changing as that rine rain is moving out. small craft advisory has been lifted. will go back into effect tonight as a cold front starts to move on in place of all this warm air moving across the region right now. this system the low associated with this moved up to our west. it just lifted up to our west pulling a lot of this moisture with it. the second portion is a cold front that moves in late tonight and into tomorrow. on the tail-end of this we could see a light rain-snow shower moving through as the colder air starts to build in. definitely you could see some snow in our higher elevations, but the colder air is here through the weekend, temperatures dropping from the 60s into the 30s and 40s, sunset at 5:05. small craft advisory now going into effect late. today 60 degrees, mild, clouds breaking, sun hear this afternoon. overnight lows around 38. look for showers late as the second wave moves through. 44 degrees tomorrow, windy and cooler

we have 33 in bel air and westminster and 36 on kent island. it winds are currently pretty light. light winds across most of the area u-uniform coming in from the southwest. that's going to eventually bring a smile to air. the front that came through yesterday completely out of the area didn't bring us more than really a sprinkle or two. the clouds got heavy but the front passed on by. started to see clear skies late last night. now we have another front very weak again moving across the northern tier of the country right around the great lakes or so. that one could bring us may be just like yesterday's front brought us light sprinkles this could bring us light snow showers potential late tonight. also the moisture stays to the north. high pressure from the south kicks in again. for the rest of the week we go back into the mid-50s and even with a chance of rain or so near 60 degrees for parts of the week are you saying that today at 5:24. the next high tide at fort mckenna is at 10:57. today 50 degrees. tonight overnight low down around 28 with partly cloudy skies. tomorrow in the

water -- kent island. north and west of town tonight, literally, this area north and west. southern p.a. and anywhere west of carroll county could see a little snow by 3:00, 4:00, 5:00 in the morning. then it will quickly end. some areas it appears, gets cold enough, could see a small accumulation of snow on the lawns. looks like it's just going to stay too warm most areas. 57/44 today. 41, 24. the averages. and record, 70. and 1 above zero. that record low, 1981. winds now southeast. they have been south pretty much all day long. late tonight, when the front comes through. they will shift more to the west. that will allow that cold air i showed you. cincinnati down in the 20s already. just east of the area, it's still in the 40s. so there's cold air, sitting right back here. most of this is going to travel up to the northwest initially. then cold air will come back for the weekend. right now, it's snowing from michigan down to wisconsin. chicago is going to get their biggest snow of the year. they've had nothing so far. they may see gusty winds. 3, 4, 5, 6 inches of snow.

and 54 over in annapolis and kent island. 53, 32 today. the average is now 41 and 24.e stuck with those averages for the next couple ever weeks, by the way. 70, the record high, 1950. and at 1875, two below zero on this date. right now, west wind, coming in down the mountains. warm things up. dry things out. a little fog this morning. cleared out quickly, as the skies cleared out. we had a little fog forming after that precip yesterday. most of it was, of course, south of the city. that's where all of the rain and snow occurred. but we've got lighter winds tonight. however, winds generally go out of the south and southeast. bringing in warm and moist air. low pressure over louisiana and texas. moving in toward kentucky. brings warm air over the gulf of mexico. over that slightly cooler surface. clouds developing tomorrow morning. rain probably until 1:00, 2:00 in the afternoon. and looks like a wet evening tomorrow night. could be moderate rain with this. and actually, this low passes us. it will start drying out. however, there's an arctic front that will come through

kent island, annapolis. and columbia as well. and 41 in westminster. light winds now, as you see. not really much in the way of winds at all. tomorrow, more of a southeast wind. we'll start bringing in that moisture once again from the south. and from the atlantic ocean. and it's already juice said up here from the gulf of mexico. just that tropical air immediating heading north. there will be severe storms in arkansas, louisiana. portions of mississippi, alabama. but not what we saw earlier this week, with those tornadoes. we'll see some hailstorms and wind gusts, i'm sure. maybe one or two isolated small tornadoes. this is very warm, moist air, somewhat unstable. this low is going to head out to our west. it will bring us clouds. and eventually that rain with it. the bulk of this rain tonight and tomorrow, will pass to our west. the southern end of it, that front is going to come through the region tomorrow night and friday. it's not going to be that warm, not like it is down south. but we'll see a period of rain, particularly tomorrow night and friday. and there could be modera

degrees on the ocean, westminster 29, 32 belaire, 36 clum by and rock hall, almost 40 annapolis and kent island, so low number 1 we will call it passed by last night with clouds, never saw a flurry. calling this low number 2, it is going to pretty much come over us on a west to east gradation, controversial speaking. ultimately it gets warm. but there is that mix, this is probably going to start overnight. low gets on out of here and gets mild again starting sunday and into next week, not just mild but real mild. 35 today though, morning sun gives way to clouds. overnight starts getting interesting, 28 your low. temperatures will support the issue. tomorrow eventually 40 with a little bit of rain. championship sunday 38. almost 60 with rain monday. almost 50 tuesday and wednesday, don, take it away. >> thank you. ready to get up and go? here is christie bresland at wjz traffic control. >> reporter: good morning again, don. good morning, everyone. well traveling on the beltway you will slow down towards hartford road. the rest of the beltway still running very well at this hour. as far as 95 goe

and the warm spots down by the water, d.c., annapolis, kent island, still at 39. 31 in westminster. 53, 32 today. the 53 occurred just before 1:00 a.m. the front came through between 1:00 and 2:00. and the temperature dropped this morning. 8:00. down to 32. it's come up a little bit. 31, 24 the average. record is 61 degrees, yeah, in 1932. that had people scratching heads. in 1981, a little more like january. zero, nothing degrees back in 1981. winds have come down here. 7, 9. still at 17 and 22 in oakland. and 12 in d.c. so still a bit of a breeze. dress for a chilly, chilly night. and a chilly day and a chilly weekend. all because of a deep area of low pressure that has passed through our region. this morning, a few areas north and west of town. 4:00, 5:00 a.m., a little wet snow activity. and a little sleet that has quickly moved through. i really didn't see anything in the city at all. to the west, snow, chicago, yeah. michigan getting snow. it's ended now. you can see it's beginning to shrink. but still, lake-effect snow. new york state. western pennsylvania. much of ohio, actuall

close to 50 in annapolis and kent island. 46, 27 today. this morning, we're below freezing. and then the clouds came in. the east winds kicked in. temperatures jumped up above freezing. 41/24. the average records, 73, 1975. and 1 above zero. just 1. in 1982. right now, there's that east wind. continues to bring in moisture. and the ocean water temperatures, around 40, 41 degrees. so that's the air that is being transported across our region. and that will continue. tomorrow, however, becomes a little more southerly. and that's really warm air down here. temperatures in the 60s. this low pressure is passing to our west. it's going to allow that rain to come up the eastern side of the storm. giving us rain tonight. now, tomorrow, when that storm passes, temporarily, we'll get into a southerly or southwesterly wind. and that's mild air. but further north and west, there's a cold front across northern sections of wisconsin. that will cross our region by late tomorrow night. it may have a rain shower with it. might be just cold enough quickly for a few snowflakes to mix in. early

and a 48 in annapolis and kent island. westminster, light rain down there.hat's probably going to be a low today, by the way. 50/38. low overnight, that is. 42, 20 for the average. and we did come up one degree for today. now, through the summer months, temperatures continue to increase a degree or so everybody week. so we have reached the bottom of the coldest on average temperatures. here in january. and we are beginning to rebound. 79, the record high, 1950. and two -- 2 degrees in 1961. right now, east/northeast winds in the region. tomorrow, they go more to the southwest. that will really kick in some very mild air. temps in the caroline as say we're in the 70 -- carolinas say we're in the 70s. to the west and southwest, shower and thundershower activity, over mississippi, alabama, tennessee. that's moving off to the east/northeast. some of that going through the carolinas. and some of that rain will also be transported into our region, along with that frontal system. once the front gets through here, it may kick up that shower and thundershower and may

and kent island. rock hall, coming in there on the bay, at 37 degrees. 57. now, you might say 57.hat was just after midnight. that will go in as the official high to this afternoon. we have been in the 30s all afternoon. 38, so far, the low. 41, 24. actually, we just dropped to 36. 34, 21, the averages. record 68. and 4 below zero. shower activity came through last night, with that front. not much of it, actually. most of us to our south. snow showers in the afternoon to our northwest. most of the country, with the exception of the northern rockies and particularly the cascades and seattle, poarldz, tacoma area, getting cold. cold air getting right down to canada there. mixing with the storm off the pacific. just enough cold air. heavy snow in many areas could see a foot or more. and that is going to cripple seattle in the next day or so. it may get warmer and see a change next week. but could see heavy snow in that region. the rest of the country, pretty quiet. still warm in florida. but that front is going to go through that region. may cool at least portions of florida. for our

the dew point will come up tonight. 41, kent island, annapolis down by the bay.5 in washington. east winds now, off the atlantic ocean. generally today, they're going to start turning more to the south and southeast and bringing that moisture. but keep us in generally mild air. when we talk generally, normal lows in the 20s. tonight, about 34 by morning. now, to our north, as you mentioned, probably from harrisburg, maybe up by pittsburgh, a few spots, northern pennsylvania, might see a touch of sleet. maybe a freezing drizzle tonight. as this low passes to our west, it will bring warmer air, over top of this cooler air. clouds being created to the south. few clouds. will clear out for a while before more clouds roll in. across portions of indiana and ohio now. a little sleet coming down with temperatures there in the mid- 30s. it's going to warm up there as well. also, light flurry activity across northwest pennsylvania. and western new york. here's that low pressure. it's going to bring a lot of mild air ahead of it. be in the 60s down there. it will clear our

the 40 degrees now in annapolis and kent island. it will stay near 40 degrees. warmer air is actually moving into the region from the west/southwest. we'll start seeing a west wind late tonight, tomorrow morning. it should clear out, a lot of sunshine. and much warmer conditions by the afternoon. temperatures are going to shoot up from the 30s to the 40s, into the low 50s. across virginia, maybe mid and upper 50s. no wind here at all. that's one of the reasons, low clouds and fog are hang in -- hanging in. they had much better visibilities. 10-mile visibilities in oakland. our visibilities here about a mile here. eastern shore, couple of spots had under a mile. so pretty foggy in a few spots. watch out for that still this evening. now, the big area of low pressure across the great lakes. snow on the western flank, with cold air coming in. showers and severe thunderstorms. you probably just heard that report in alabama, mississippi, arkansas. moving through portions of georgia. had a tornado watch out there for a while. that's all moved off to the east. now, for

tomorrow will be a basically sunny or partly cloudy day. 38, annapolis, and kent island.k hall. 36. here's why. one front coming through tonight. maybe snow showers. more significant area of low pressure moving across montana. but it's being quickly fed off to the east by the jet stream. and north of that, it's very cold air. south of it, it's mild. in between, that's where we're seeing the precipitation breaking out. there's rain, snow. by the time it reaches our region, early saturday morning, i'm talking like after midnight tomorrow night, it will probably be cold enough for a period of snow, sleet and yes, even some freezing rain. right now, you can see the snow out to the west of us. most of it passing to our north. however, friday night, into saturday morning. the next system coming in with that precip, mild air trying to get in here. it looks like the low pressure will pass right across our region. north of us, mainly snow across pennsylvania and new york. new york city could get 2 to 3 inches of snow. even harrisburg could get 1 to 3 inches. for our region, here's

that's possible we'll watch that late tonight. 49, annapolis. 49, kent island. and 52 in rock hall. 57/44 today. 44 is -- look at that. 20 degrees above average. 41 is the average high. 20 for the average low. record in 1890 of 70. 1981. 1 above zero. right now, southerly, southeasterly, and southwesterly winds, have been with us all day long. they start to shift to the west. and that will bring in the colder air. a second cold front coming through the area. drop temperatures even more. sunday is going to be cold for the ravens game around 33. but it should be generally sunny. a little breezy. snow out to the west. chicago may see wind-blown snow tonight, already getting that western michigan, detroit, it's raining now. a little snow picking up here. western ohio, kentucky. the cold air is kind of coming down and wrapping around. it won't get that cold here initially until the weekend really begins. so tonight, mild air continues. so the front comes through. it starts turning colder. colder for friday night. colder on saturday. and just plain sunny. but cold on

we only get to the mid-40s. 37 in kent island. 44, 26 today. our average now, 41 and 24. and the record, 73 and 1 back in 1942. east winds continue to bring that moisture in from the atlantic ocean. that's why we got the clouds and drizzle and rain across the region. low pressure across the tennessee valley is going to head across our region late tonight. but look at all of this moisture in virginia and the carolinas. we've got rain on tap tonight. particularly southeast of us. and the eastern shore in jersey. looks like they're in line for heavier rain. ours will get spotty but there could be heavier echoes from time to time. tomorrow, all of this moves away. but there's a front out to the west. this is a pretty sharp cold front. temperatures have dropped. this front will cross our region friday morning. it gets breezy and colder. maybe just cold enough for a shower of rain or snow early friday. and then we'll see partly cloudy skies. it will continue to snow across portions of northern p.a. and new england with lake- effect stuff. garrett county also gets some snow as w

flakes, from 3,000 to 4,000 feet to reach down to the ground without melting. 28 in bel air. 32 in kent island, annapolis. just at the freezing work. and yes, we saw some ice forming. but we had four five, six, seven eight days. 31, 13 today. february 9th. coldest since then. record, 70 in 2000. and 4 in 1918. right now, winds beginning to turn more to the southwest. believe it or not, we're going to have a big warmup the next few days. even though it's being cold. the clouds coming in overhead. that's causing the clouds to produce some flurries. to the west of us, milder temps. 40s and 50s. and yes, we'll be that warm by the end of the week and weekend right now, with the exception of sunday. with a chance of showers sunday. but temperatures will go way up above normal once again. so here goes the cold air. goodbye. more mild air coming in. i know it's been a crazy mild winter. december was 5 1/2 degrees above normal, by the way. west winds gusting to 20 knots. bay temp around 41 degrees. tonight, flurries possible, yes. 13 up to 27 tonight. 44, above average, with partly sunny skies. a littl

right now, locally, still the upper 50s to the low 60s. 55, kent island, annapolis. 53, rock hall. a bit of an innocence on the bay, which is low 40s. so anywhere close to the waters, certainly a lot colder this afternoon. 66 today. the record, 1947. 69. 30 this morning. 42, 25 are the normals. what you have to remember is these temperatures are so out of whack for this time of year. 4, the record low, back in 1966. currently, it's the southerly winds. they will keep this warm air in for at least one more day. it will begin to cool down somewhat with more clouds by tomorrow night. maybe a shower or two. and on thursday. also a chance of a few showers. a little rain here in southern portions of the mississippi valley. a weak front to the northwest. kind of combined, may bring some clouds here tomorrow afternoon. could be a shower. a few showers beginning to break out here in kentucky, right along the ohio river. so we'll look for at least partly cloudy skies. and mostly cloudy skies tomorrow afternoon. chance of a shower, yes. and as that front slides across the region, looks like i

and a little above freezing, kent island to annapolis. and down by washington.orth/northeast winds now. they'll continue to be light. they'll continue to pick up tomorrow. it's going to be kind of a raw day, a wet day, and nasty drive. in the morning, that's when the worst conditions will be around the region. this afternoon, a lot of sunshine will be in the region. clouds will come in around the west. plain, some areas picked up 4, 5, 6, 78 inches in a few spots. but there's a lot of warm air to the south, with shower activity. temperatures in the 50s. right now, richmond is at 43. not that far away. so that warm air is going to come in over top of the ground surface. at the low levels here, where we live, it may stay at freezing for quite a few hours into saturday morning. and that's why, instead of a snow event for the most part, we're looking at? snow, sleet, then freezing rain and then some rain. all of this moving off to the east, eventually getting through the area. by tomorrow afternoon, things will start clearing up. and it gets a little milder. tomorro

but the coolest spot, rock hall at 34, even annapolis with snow, and kent island at snow.ute 50, snow falling. temperatures in the mid-50s now. normals, 41, 24. the record, 75 and 2. south winds. you think, well, boy, it's bringing in mild air. it will tomorrow. temperatures are going to go up. but wednesday, low pressure to the south. brought a lot of rain to texas. flooding in houston. that's going to pass to our west. it will bring up warm air ahead of it. you see that band of frozen precip. just west of us, it's clearing out. later tonight, we'll see a let of moonlight. -- a lot of moonlight. good chance of rain wednesday afternoon, wednesday night. could be some moderate rain. then it clears out, it will start to turn colder but not until the end of the week. northwest winds at 5 to 10 knots. bay temp around 42 now. tonight, a little rain and snow mixture, clearing out this evening. mainly south and east. low of 30 by morning tomorrow. sunny, pleasant, nice day. tomorrow's high, back up to 52 degrees. so a little bit of a teaser here in january. with this precip tonig

kent island, and as i said, 54 now, in the d.c. area. easily get to 60 briefly. 50/38 today.s low is close to our normal high, which is now up to 42, by wait. 24, the -- by the way. 24, the normal low. record is 1950. 79 degrees in 1950. and 2 above zero in 1961. right now, we have an east wind around the region. tomorrow will be more of a southerly wind. and eventually turning to the north and northwest. that will dry things out by the afternoon. but there is a batch of rain coming in from the south and southwest. the first batch of rain coming from the midwest. most of it is passing well to our north. but down here, across georgia, alabama, mississippi area. our areas of shower and thundershower activity, embedded in there. you can see it in some of those. that is also being translated to the east/northeast. later tonight, that heavier shower activity, and steady rain moves through the area. and with that, maybe a thunderstorm during the overnight or early morning hours tomorrow. we'll be in the mild air. and even on friday, stays mild. saturday, starts to cool off just a l

kent island and rock hall at 28 in westminster, where cloudy skies could produce flurries up there. 31here -- today. and 4 back in 1918. right now, we've seen a southerly wind begin to turn out. that means warmer air moving in. after tonight, a big warmup. tonight is going to be about 12 to 13 degrees warmer than this morning. already, we're going to start to see this warmup. that's why we're seeing this very light flurries. also some stuff down here. upper portions of west virginia. cold air begins to retreat here. here comes mild air. by the end of the week, we're talking well above normal, once again. even though it's cold now, it is not going to last. west winds on the bay. may gust to 20 knots now. bay temp around 21. tonight, then, maybe flurries. 27. and tomorrow, sun comes out in the afternoon. breezy, but much warmer. 44, above average. although with the breeze, it will still feel chilly. but even warmer than average. >> that's wonderful. thank you, bob. >>> still to come on eyewitness news. cancer in america. millions of lives saved by better treatment and screening. but some

so annapolis and kent island. you could have a cookout outside. tonight, it's just amazing. 63 today. 27 this morning, which is close to average. but it really warmed up with the southwest winds and all of that sunshine. 40 was the average high. 41, 63 today. 25 is the normal or average low. and the records, 72. got pretty close to that. 5, the record low in 1904. there are those southwest winds. that will continue for most of the day tomorrow. late in the day, they'll begin to turn to the west/northwest, as a weak front comes through the area. we will see a few clouds with it. and temperatures will go down a bit saturday night, into sunday and monday, getting closer to normal. but still above average. this little system, some of the rain here near south texas. looks like it's going to slowly advance. may give us some rain here on wednesday. then it looks like it will get colder finally, by the end of next week. but until then, temperatures running still at or above normal. mild day. then cooler air coming in for sunday and monday and early next w
