The National Weather Service Baltimore-Washington states high pressure is building across the southeast U.S., with a cold front approaching from the Northeast and Great Lakes. This front will move south on Friday, and high pressure is expected to dominate the Mid-Atlantic weather through early next week. Patchy, dense river fog may cause visibility issues for motorists near larger waterways until just after daybreak, and areas near or below freezing could experience patchy slick spots, especially on elevated and untreated surfaces.

A series of disturbances at Brooke Point High School on Courthouse Road prompted a lockdown as law enforcement and school staff worked to address the situation and ensure the safety of students and staff.

The incident unfolded at 7:22 a.m. Monday, January 29, 2024, when Deputy D.J. Taylor, performing his School Resource Officer duties, was alerted to a large fight erupting in the cafeteria, according to the county’s sheriff’s office.  Additional deputies were called in to assist with crowd control as they worked alongside school staff to separate the parties involved.
