Baltimore, MD – A winter storm is set to impact Maryland this weekend, bringing snow, sleet, and freezing rain to the region. Forecasters warn that hazardous road conditions could make travel difficult, particularly along I-95 and other major highways.

According to the National Weather Service, a slight chance of snow will begin Saturday afternoon before intensifying into a wintry mix of rain and sleet by evening. Temperatures will hover near 38°F, with precipitation chances exceeding 70%. By Saturday night, roads—especially bridges and overpasses—may become slick and treacherous.

Sunday offers relief, with mostly sunny skies and a high near 47°F, but another storm system could arrive Monday night, bringing a mix of snow and rain. Looking ahead, Tuesday could see accumulating snow, creating additional travel concerns.

Residents should prepare for changing conditions, allow extra travel time, and check local forecasts frequently. Drivers are advised to slow down, use caution, and watch for icy spots on untreated roads.
