Memorial Day weather in Maryland: from foggy mornings to possible storms

Maryland's Memorial Day weekend started with a blanket of morning fog that lingered until late morning. As the day warmed up, temperatures climbed from the comfortable low 60s to near 70 degrees, pushed by a warm front sliding northward. The air grew thick and sticky by afternoon, setting the stage for scattered rain showers and a few thunderstorms. While the day won’t be completely ruined by rain, brief heavy bursts could surprise anyone outdoors. Overnight, the humidity stayed high, bringing another round of foggy conditions. Temperatures stayed in the 60s, keeping things damp. Once Tuesday arrives, the weather should feel more summer-like with daytime highs in the upper 70s to low 80s. More patchy fog is expected in the mornings, followed by chances of quick, scattered storms later in the day.By Wednesday, the pattern didn’t change much. Morning fog might slow down the start of the workday, and a few isolated storms could pop up in the afternoon. This isn’t the kind of weather that lasts all day—just brief interruptions. Thursday could see one last stray shower or thunderstorm, but the rain chances drop significantly after that. For those in the Baltimore area, the upcoming weekend looks much nicer than the soggy holiday. Mix of sun and clouds should make it pleasant, with temperatures in the mid-70s. After a gray Memorial Day, it’s a welcome shift.
