BALTIMORE, Md. — A silvery frost greeted rooftops and windshields around the Inner Harbor early Saturday as a Frost Advisory remains in effect through 9 a.m. Suburban thermometers from Towson to Ellicott City slipped into the low 30s, a clear sign that central Maryland is getting its first real taste of winter air just ahead of Halloween week.
The National Weather Service in Baltimore/Washington expects the frost to melt quickly once sunshine takes over, with afternoon highs reaching near 61°F. Winds will be light from the northwest, and clouds should increase late in the day. Gardeners should cover or bring in tender plants until temperatures rebound this afternoon.
Sunday and Monday deliver the nicest stretch of the week: highs in the low 60s with crisp, bright skies. It will be great for yardwork, decorating, or scenic drives along I-70 and I-95. Morning lows will dip into the upper 30s to low 40s, but frost is not anticipated within the metro.
A subtle pattern change arrives by midweek. Expect more clouds Tuesday and a 30–40% chance of light rain on Wednesday as a coastal system brushes the Mid-Atlantic. The remainder of the week looks seasonable and mild leading into Halloween, with no early snow or harsh chill on the horizon.
For now, Baltimore can savor a classic late-October setup: frosty sunrises, pleasant afternoons, and a quiet countdown to trick-or-treating.
