Not much weather news to write about this morning, at least not around here. Forecasters are looking for seasonable-to-mild temperatures as the week unfolds. The long-term average high temperatures for Baltimore in mid-March are in the mid-50s. And that's what we'll see for the next week or so.

The photo above was shot from orbit yesterday. It shows plenty of overcast over Maryland, and lots of snow on the ground in upstate New York and New England.

The air will dry out over Baltimore later today, and provide some more sunshine, a high around 55 degrees. We should get some nice stargazing in after 10 p.m. tonight, with a low around freezing under the clear skies. Temperatures will rise into the high 50s Thursday, and even into the mid-60s on Friday as we fall into the return, southerly flow from the fair weather system as it moves out to sea. But after another cold front moves past on Friday the temperatures will drop back toward the norms.

Look for showers on Friday into Saturday along with the next frontal passage. But we can still use the moisture, so we'll take it. The rest of the week - from Sunday well into next week - we'll see plenty of sunshine. 

Like I said. Boring. Nothing like the weekend's amazing roller coaster. You saw the Sunday rainbow photo we posted yesterday. Wind gusts on Saturday reached near-hurricane force in some places, with a high of 73 mph in Westminster. Here are some wind gust figures from the National Weather Service.
