Both spring and fall are pleasant with cool to mild temperatures and lower humidity. Winters are relatively mild compared to areas to the north and northwest, but cold spells send temperatures well below freezing. Due to the impact of the Atlantic Ocean nearby, average snowfall amounts only range from {{convert|5 to 10|inch}}; however, this varies considerably from year to year and occasional nor'easters can produce significant snowfalls over {{convert|1|ft|cm|spell=in}}. The Blizzard of 2018, for example, produced {{convert|10 to 15|inch}} of snow, temperatures in teens, and winds gusting over {{cvt|40|mph}}. Tropical storms occasionally impact the region during summer and fall. The [[Köppen climate classification]] subtype for this climate is "[[Humid subtropical climate|Cfa]]" (Humid Subtropical Climate).<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.weatherbase.com/weather/weather-summary.php3?s=41781&cityname=Pocomoke+City%2C+Maryland%2C+United+States+of+America&units= |title=Climate Summary for Pocomoke, Maryland |access-date=August 7, 2013 |archive-date=September 22, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150922100836/http://www.weatherbase.com/weather/weather-summary.php3?s=41781&cityname=Pocomoke+City%2C+Maryland%2C+United+States+of+America&units= |url-status=live }}</ref> {{Weather box |location = Pocomoke City, Maryland |single line = Yes |metric first = Yes |Jan high F = 47 |Feb high F = 48 |Mar high F = 56 |Apr high F = 66 |May high F = 75 |Jun high F = 83 |Jul high F = 87 |Aug high F = 85 |Sep high F = 80 |Oct high F = 70 |Nov high F = 59 |Dec high F = 50 |year high F = 67 |Jan low F = 29 |Feb low F = 28 |Mar low F = 35 |Apr low F = 44 |May low F = 53 |Jun low F = 62 |Jul low F = 67 |Aug low F = 66 |Sep low F = 59 |Oct low F = 48 |Nov low F = 39 |Dec low F = 31 |year low F = 47 |Jan precipitation inch = 3.1 |Feb precipitation inch = 3.2 |Mar precipitation inch = 4 |Apr precipitation inch = 3.1 |May precipitation inch = 3.1 |Jun precipitation inch = 3.4 |Jul precipitation inch = 4.1 |Aug precipitation inch = 4.9 |Sep precipitation inch = 3.5 |Oct precipitation inch = 3.4 |Nov precipitation inch = 2.7 |Dec precipitation inch = 3.5 |year precipitation inch = 42 |Jan precipitation days = 9 |Feb precipitation days = 8 |Mar precipitation days = 10 |Apr precipitation days = 8 |May precipitation days = 9 |Jun precipitation days = 8 |Jul precipitation days = 9 |Aug precipitation days = 8 |Sep precipitation days = 6 |Oct precipitation days = 6 |Nov precipitation days = 7 |Dec precipitation days = 9 |year precipitation days = 95 |source 1 = Weatherbase<ref name=Weatherbase>{{cite web |url=http://www.weatherbase.com/weather/weather.php3?s=190480&cityname=Leisure-City-Florida |publisher=Weatherbase |title=Weatherbase.com |year=2013 |access-date=August 7, 2013 |archive-date=March 4, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304085808/http://www.weatherbase.com/weather/weather.php3?s=190480&cityname=Leisure-City-Florida |url-status=live }} Retrieved August 7, 2013.</ref> |date=August 2013 }}
