steve. megan, another cold start, 29 degrees for the current temperature at the inner harbor. cloudy skies and at least it's not been as cold as it's been. winds are calm, so no windchill effect. and 18 is the dew point. it's pretty dry. 29 is the temperature in baltimore but it's 30 in d.c. big deal, one degree warmer many meanwhile salisbury a bit cooler, 18 only in salisbury and 21 in oakland. that will make us feel a little bit better about the 29-degree temperature here in baltimore. now around the area it looks like a dry scan, but there's snow showers once again moving into garrett county to things should be pretty good out toward the western part of maryland as they continue to see an opportunity for snow to fall. some of that activity will continue to move north and east. what we're looking at is a possibility of maybe some rain combined with snow mix for sunday into monday. we're going to watch. first of all high pressure building or sliding off to the east is going to allow for more of a southeasterly flow. what that will allow is temperatures to warm up a few degrees, 40 for the high. then we got the coastal low moving up, bringing in some moisture and some rain rain, at least the start on sunday earlier in the day. then a frontal boundary with the next low pressure center moving north and east that could bring additional rainfall and the chance for maybe a little snow mixing in as we get toward the colder part of the night on sunday night into monday. not talking about significant accumulation, but be prepared there a little bit of a mix as we head toward monday morning. 43 degrees, with partly cloudy skies, winds out at 5-10 miles per hour. central part of the state, upper forty with mostly sunny and it becomes more clear as we get toward the nighttime hours. back to the west, as i said we could see snow showers with most low cloudy skies, 37 only for the high. tonight we drop to 27 degrees so another chilly night with a southwest wind at 5 miles per hour. looking at the next 7 days, we get a llttle bit of a warm up for the saturday and sunday timeframe as we move intt the weekend. that will also be more likely than to result in some rainshowers and snow showers bought of the milderrair. there could be more of a mix as we get ovvrnight sunday into early monday. 43 for the high on monday, then ddy and much colder, thursday, 29 for the high, and 32 and 37, we bounce back mid-week but not skies. now let's check on the roadways with candace dold. thank you, steve. we have been talking about a problem on 295 this morring. it's a
