It’s still cold outside, hon.

Low temperatures and high winds persisted Sunday in the Baltimore area, said Luis Rosa, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service’s Baltimore/Washington office.

Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport recorded a temperature of 14 degrees in the morning that felt like minus 1 degree with the wind chill, Rosa said. Winds are gusting up to 25 miles per hour in the region, he said, and 30 miles per hour in Annapolis.

Rosa said the winds will remain about the same during the day but rapidly diminish after sunset. Temperatures at night will hover between 5 and 10 degrees.

But a warmup is expected to begin Monday, when temperatures will be between 12 and 30 degrees, Rosa said.

And forecasts show highs breaking 40 degrees Tuesday and Wednesday in Baltimore.
