Baltimore is bracing for a winter storm to hit on Wednesday, with snow showers and sleet expected in the evening and ice likely at night. A cold front crossing the area will bring gusty winds and seasonably cool temperatures, with highs in the lower to middle 50s. The WJZ First Alert Weather Team has declared Wednesday evening through early Thursday morning as a First Alert Weather Day for light to moderate sleet and freezing rain. The storm system will bring two rounds of wintry weather, with the bulk of the ice expected Wednesday night into Thursday morning. Areas north of Baltimore could see up to 0.25″ of ice accumulation, leading to challenging travel conditions. School delays and closings are possible, especially in central and northern Maryland. Behind the storm, Friday will bring sunny weather and temperatures in the upper 40s to lower 50s. Another storm system is expected over the weekend, with the potential for a mix of snow, sleet, and freezing rain. The following week is also forecasted to be active, with the possibility of a significant winter storm arriving Tuesday into Wednesday.
