Baltimore weather today features patchy drizzle early this morning, then cloudy skies with a high near 59°F—cool and damp conditions that’ll have you reaching for a light jacket before heading out to Camden Yards or anywhere else around Charm City.
The National Weather Service forecasters tell us the early morning showers have already moved south into Virginia, leaving just spotty drizzle through about 8 AM. After that, a thick stratus deck will hang over the region through mid-morning before gradually breaking up this afternoon. Don’t expect much sunshine—the abundant dry air aloft will keep clouds persistent, and northeast winds at 8 to 13 mph (gusting to 20 mph) will make it feel even cooler than the thermometer reads. Any chance of late-day sun is confined to the Allegheny Front out west; here in the city, plan on gray skies most of the day.
Gameday at Camden Yards: The Baltimore Orioles vs Boston Red Sox: Family Sundays game is happening today, and you’ll want to bundle up. Bring a packable rain jacket just in case of lingering drizzle in the early innings, and grab Official team gear on Fanatics to show your O’s pride. Tailgating conditions are chilly—perfect weather for a programmable slow cooker full of chili if you’re grilling beforehand, though the wind will make it feel brisk.
The good news? Tonight clears up nicely. By Sunday evening, clouds will break for mostly clear skies and calmer winds (2 to 7 mph), with a low around 47°F. This sets up a gorgeous Monday—sunny, mild, and near 69°F with light winds. That’s your day to get outside, hit the Chesapeake Bay if you’re thinking about fishing, or tackle yard work around Federal Hill or Canton.
Looking ahead, Tuesday brings renewed storm chances as a decaying convective complex moves into the region, and Wednesday will see showers and a few thunderstorms with seasonable temperatures. Thursday through Saturday turn cooler and drier, though a few scattered showers are possible.
Tonight’s comfort food: This cool, damp Sunday is perfect for slow-cooker chili or a hearty beef stew simmering low and slow while you’re out. An enameled cast iron Dutch oven works beautifully for stovetop versions. Need ingredients? You can order groceries on Amazon and have everything for tonight’s dinner delivered to your door.
Stay warm out there, and enjoy that clearing trend tonight!
