According to the National Weather Service, Baltimore residents can look forward to a calm and sunny weekend. The latest report indicates high pressure will dominate the landscape, giving way to clear skies with a mild temperature range, expected to nestle comfortably in the mid-70s to near 80. As stated by the National Weather Service, the weather is set to shift slightly on Sunday night into Monday, with a cold front making its presence known, potentially altering the weather's current tranquility.

Early morning fog and low clouds have been targeting the area, but they soon disappear after sunrise, making room for VFR conditions for most of the day. This ease, however, may be promptly disrupted as a shortwave disturbance is predicted to trigger thunderstorm activity by Sunday evening. Although a "conditional threat for strong to severe thunderstorms exists," per the Weather Service, the likelihood of these storms weakening as the night progresses remains high.

As we commence the new week, the cold front is scheduled to usher in crisp air, causing a noticeable temperature dip. The Weather Service's report anticipates highs dropping to the 50s in the mountains and low 70s along the urban corridor. In the marine realm, boaters should experience relatively tranquil conditions with winds not expected to reach Small Craft Advisory levels.

The absence of advisories from the Weather Service grants residents a reassuring breather after an advisory-laden period. Full details and updates are available on the National Weather Service website.
