This week will start off pretty warm with temperatures approaching 60° on Monday and in the low to mid 50s on Tuesday. The wintry mix we mentioned over the weekend is still a possibility as temperatures quickly cool down Wednesday. There are also signals for potential snow next week, but we’ll get to that if it still looks like a threat later this week.

The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a ‘limited’ ice accumulation threat for the entire region on Thursday, February 6th.
An Extreme Cold Alert and Wind Advisory has been issued for Montgomery. The cold alert goes from 7:00 pm Tuesday, 01/28 until 9:00 am Wednesday, 01/29 while the wind advisory is in effect from 11am-6pm on Wednesday.
Per MCPS: “This January has been a challenging month for our community, with freezing temperatures, snow and icy conditions affecting our daily routines. Students, staff and families have navigated these tough weeks with resilience, being cautious while traveling and layering up against the cold. We can now look forward to a welcome warm-up in the coming days; however, we must make a necessary adjustment to the school calendar due to the weather-related closures earlier this month.
MCPS has reversed course after initially stating that there would be a 2-hour delay on Thursday, January 23rd. Schools will now open on time. More below per MCPS:
With a Cold Weather Advisory in effect on Wednesday from 12am (midnight) until 11am with “very cold wind chills around zero to five below zero expected.”
A Cold Weather Advisory is in effect for Montgomery County from 12:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, January 22, due to anticipated high winds and freezing temperatures, with wind chills potentially dropping as low as -5°F. (more…)
MCPS will operate under a Code Yellow – Two Hour Delay on Tuesday, Jan. 21, 2025. More below, per MCPS:
Sunday’s storm didn’t bring as much as forecasted by most for the immediate area, but has left a few neighborhood streets and sidewalks slushy. The bitter cold in the morning along with the potential for anything wet or slushy to freeze may cause some school systems to have a delayed opening.
An additional Cold Weather Advisory has been issued by the National Weather Service (NWS). The initial Cold Weather Advisory remains in effect from 7pm this evening until 10am tomorrow. The additional advisory goes into effect at 10pm on Tuesday until 10am Thursday.
