Maryland Weather: Wintry weather possible for Christmas Eve
BALTIMORE -- Tuesday will be the final of four WJZ Alert Days in a row for the cold.
A Canadian cold front will approach the region on Tuesday. A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for most of Maryland.
Light freezing rain, snow and even some sleet pellets (for western Maryland, mostly) are expected starting on Tuesday morning. Travel could become dangerous on Tuesday while precipitation is falling.
Highs on Tuesday will reach the low 40s.
Christmas Day and the beginning of Hanukkah are expected to remain dry, with partly cloudy skies and highs in the lower 40s. Thursday will also be mainly dry, with mostly cloudy skies and highs in the mid-40s. Temperatures will stay in the mid to upper 40s, near seasonal averages, as we head toward the end of the week. Our next chance for rain holds off until the final weekend of the year.
Stay warm, Maryland!
