Maryland Weather: Four Chances for Winter Weather in February

If it seems like it has been more than a year since we were snowed in by a blizzard, you're correct. But don't give up on winter weather just yet. The extended forecast shows four opportunities for snow or ice this month.

The first chance for the region could arrive Sunday, according to the National Weather Service. There's a 30 percent chance of rain and snow, with temperatures expected to stay in the 30s. Forecasters expect only light rain and snow for our region, with heavier accumulation to our north and west.

We'll briefly warm to the mid-50s next week, before dropping settling in to the 30s and 40s for most of the month, with overnight lows in the 20s, according to AccuWeather.

That's prime winter weather temperatures and the forecast shows three more opportunities for dangerous conditions, and most of it will mess with your weekend plans.

Around Feb. 16-17 we could see some morning ice, with lows in the mid 20s.

There's another chance for early-morning ice on Friday, Feb. 24.

Monday, Feb. 27, the forecast shows an afternoon shower, with a chance for a wintry mix.
