Mostly sunny and warmer. High: 59 Low: 42.

Here are the top three stories in Catonsville today:

1. On Monday, a federal judge overturned the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's national mask mandate for all forms of public transportation. This decision affects Maryland travelers who use Baltimore-Washington International Airport, along with passengers on Maryland's MARC and Metro trains. People are no longer required to wear masks in public transportation hubs, including airports, bus stations, buses, taxis, airplanes, ride-share vehicles, ships, ferries, trains, and subways.
