The possibility of measurable snow in Maryland during May

MARYLAND — While snowfall in Maryland is most common in the winter months, measurable snow during May, though rare, has occurred historically.

According to past weather records from the National Weather Service, Maryland has experienced a handful of May snow events over the last century, typically linked to late-season cold fronts or unusual spring weather patterns.

These events are more likely in western and northern parts of the state, where elevation and cooler temperatures increase the chance of snow.

Coastal and southern areas of Maryland rarely see measurable snow in May due to generally warmer spring temperatures.

Overall, measurable May snowfall in Maryland remains an uncommon weather phenomenon but is not impossible given historical precedents.
