BALTIMORE — Winter kicks into high gear this week. Heading into Friday we have a winter weather advisory in place until 7pm. There is a fast moving clipper system that will move over our area early afternoon and into the evening. There won't be much moisture with it, but what we do expect is some rain switching over to a mix and then eventually snow. We expect a quick burst of snow around the evening commute that could drop visibility and lay down a light coating. Temperatures for the weekend will drop into the mid 30s and it looks windy at times. Our second bigger weather maker arrives Sunday night into Monday. There is growing confidence that we see an impact snow here. totals look high enough to plow and shovel. The bulk of the snow will fall Sunday evening into Monday morning. If we can get enough warm air aloft this system will become more of a mixed precip event. Think more ice, rain, and snow. That would cut into totals. We will work on details with this system as we get closer, but prepare for a bigger weather maker early next week. Temperatures tank after that. The snow we do get will likely stick around. We fall into the teens and 20s late in the week.
