Baltimore, Md. – Residents across Maryland are waking up to a cool, crisp start this Labor Day weekend, with morning temperatures in the 50s and 60s and a refreshing breeze. Forecasters say the stretch of fall-like weather will continue through Monday, bringing sunshine and dry skies for holiday travelers.
Friday: Weak Front Slides Through
A weak cold front will move across Maryland Friday, but most areas will stay dry. Only a few scattered showers are possible, mainly near the Pennsylvania border.
Highs will climb into the upper 70s to near 80°F, before cooler air filters in Friday night. Mountain valleys could dip into the upper 30s, while much of the state settles into the 50s overnight.
Holiday Weekend: Sunshine and Low Humidity
High pressure builds in Saturday through Monday, delivering sunshine, low humidity, and comfortable highs in the mid to upper 70s.
- Mountains: A stray shower is possible due to upslope winds.
- Rest of Maryland: Dry and pleasant, with crisp evenings.
Forecasters say this will be one of the most comfortable Labor Day weekends in recent years for Maryland, ideal for barbecues, parades, and outdoor events.
Early Next Week: Dry, Then Turning Showery
The week starts dry, with cooler-than-average temperatures continuing into Tuesday and Wednesday.
By midweek, a coastal low tracking north may bring showers back to areas along and east of I-95. A stronger cold front could deliver widespread rain late next week, ending the extended dry stretch.
Safety and Travel Notes
Drivers should enjoy smooth travel on Maryland highways through Monday, with no major weather disruptions expected. By midweek, however, those commuting along I-95 and the coastal plain should prepare for slower travel if showers move in.
Conclusion
With sunny skies, crisp mornings, and low humidity, Maryland residents can look forward to a beautiful and fall-like Labor Day weekend. Conditions turn unsettled later next week, so this holiday stretch offers a perfect chance to enjoy the outdoors.
