- Scattered showers will push through Thursday morning, hitting hardest southeast of I-95.
- Friday is a welcome break — sunny skies, breezy, and highs near the upper 60s.
- Mother’s Day weekend is a split: Saturday is wet, but Sunday could touch 80° before evening rain creeps in.
- A drought-busting soaker arrives Sunday night into Monday — and Maryland badly needs it.
BALTIMORE, Maryland — Maryland’s weather is not done with you yet.
A more active storm pattern has settled in across the southern and eastern U.S., and the next seven days bring multiple rounds of rain to the region — some welcome, some less so depending on your plans.
Here is exactly what to expect, day by day.
Thursday morning: grab that umbrella before you leave
The overnight showers are not over yet.
A final round of wet weather is moving through late Wednesday night into Thursday morning, with temperatures dipping back into the 50s.
Thursday is not a full washout — but if your commute takes you southeast of the Interstate 95 corridor, your chances of hitting rain are higher. Keep that umbrella within reach through early afternoon, just in case.
Afternoon temperatures will settle into the mid-60s across most of the region. Total rainfall through Thursday should stay under half an inch for most communities before the system finally clears out.
Friday: Baltimore gets a gorgeous day
Good news for anyone who needs a break from the gray.
Friday is shaping up to be the clear highlight of the week. Expect partly cloudy skies, a refreshing breeze, and afternoon highs climbing into the upper 60s.
The morning will start chilly — temperatures in the 40s — so layer up before heading out. Wind gusts could occasionally reach 30 MPH, but nothing that should spoil outdoor plans.
A couple of light sprinkles are possible near and north of the Pennsylvania state line, but most of Maryland looks dry and pleasant.
Saturday: the unsettled one
Mother’s Day weekend gets off to a bumpy start.
Saturday brings heavy clouds and several rounds of showers, with the morning expected to be the wettest stretch of the day. Afternoon highs will reach the lower 70s.
The silver lining? Saturday evening and night look like they will dry out nicely. If you have outdoor dinner plans, aim for the evening window.
Sunday: Mother’s Day could be near-perfect — with one catch
Right now, Mother’s Day is looking like the best day of the entire weekend.
Partly cloudy skies and afternoon temperatures climbing into the upper 70s to around 80° are in the forecast. Daylight hours look dry — great news for brunch reservations and outdoor family gatherings.
Here is the catch: keep a close eye on Sunday evening. Another system is approaching from the west, and if it arrives faster than expected, showers could show up by late afternoon. Current trends favor rain holding off until dinner time or later — but that timing could still shift.
Sunday night into Monday: the rain Maryland actually needs
Another round of rain pushes in Sunday night and continues into Monday.
This one is actually welcome. Maryland has been grinding through a severe drought, and this extended rainfall could make a meaningful dent in that deficit.
Rain should begin to taper off by midday Monday, with clearing skies and a cooler breeze rolling in through Monday evening into Tuesday.
