Baltimore Region to Experience Cooler Temperatures, Frost Advisories in Effect
The Baltimore metropolitan area will see cooler-than-normal temperatures today, peaking in the mid-60s, with frost advisories issued for several surrounding counties.

Areas on the Eastern Shore may experience temperatures 5 to 10 degrees below their typical levels for this time of year.
