Maryland Weather Forecast: Warmer Temps Heading Into Three-Day Weekend

Heading into a three-day weekend for many Maryland residents, Mother Nature is cooperating with sunny skies and warmer than normal high temperatures. After a low right about freezing Friday night, look for highs in the mid-60s this weekend, before Presidents Day brings about a 10-degree drop on Monday.

Saturday will be warm with clouds coming in, and a 20 percent chance of rain overnight into Sunday. But the temperature will make it feel more like spring showers.

Sunday sounds perfect with sunny skies and 65 degrees before highs drop to the mid-50s on Monday.

Here's the latest forecast from the National Weather Service:

• Friday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 31. Calm wind.
• Saturday: Increasing clouds, with a high near 66. Calm wind becoming southwest 5 to 9 mph in the afternoon.
