Showers and thunderstorms likely this afternoon

A cold front will move across the area this afternoon into tonight, bringing relief from the heat and humidity. Yesterday we hit 100 degrees both here and at the airport. This tied the record set in 1923.

After a low of only 78 this morning, temperatures will climb into the low 90s this afternoon. The heat and humidity will combine with the front to allow showers and thunderstorms to develop this afternoon. Some of these storms could become severe, with damaging winds and dangerous lightning as the primary threats.

The front will cross this evening and tonight, pushing the showers and storms off the coast by morning. Cooler and drier air builds in behind the front as skies clear tomorrow. Highs tomorrow and Sunday will be in the mid to upper 80s with less humidity.

One more hot day

…HEAT ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 PM EDT THIS EVENING…

Today will be the last oppressively hot day for a while, as temperatures will once again approach 100 degrees. Combined with the humidity, heat index values will be near 105 this afternoon. A Heat Advisory is in effect until 10pm tonight.

There is a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms this afternoon in the higher terrain and that activity will weaken and move east, bringing a slight chance of rain into central Maryland overnight.

Tomorrow will still be warm, with temperatures in the mid 90s and thunderstorms likely in the afternoon. Some of the storms could be severe, with gusty winds and large hail.

Hazy, Hot and Humid

…HEAT ADVISORY NOW IN EFFECT FROM NOON TODAY TO 10 PM EDT THURSDAY…

Summer begins at 7:09pm this evening and the weather will be appropriate. High pressure centered over the southeast will pump hot and humid air into the region, sending high temperatures into the mid to upper 90s today. The heat combined with the humidity will push heat index values above 100 degrees this afternoon.

The will not be much relief tonight, as temperatures will only fall to the mid 70s (around 80 in the cities) and heat index values will remain in the 80s to near 90.

Tomorrow is looking like it will be the hottest day, with highs approaching 100 degrees in most areas. Heat index values will again be around 105 degrees.

Showers today and tonight then a warm up

An area of disturbed weather is moving through the region today between high pressure over the midwest and another high pressure to the east. Expect showers to move through this morning, followed by scattered showers this afternoon and evening. Highs today will top out in the low to mid 70s.

Another area of showers will move through tonight into tomorrow morning before clearing the area. High pressure will build in from the midwest and slides off the coast, allowing temperatures to soar as we move towards midweek. Highs tomorrow will be in the mid 80s.

Warm and humid today, rain develops from west to east

Another warm day on tap as temperatures climb to around 90 degrees again. Humidity levels will also increase today making it feel even warmer. Meanwhile, an area of low pressure moving up the Appalachians will bring heavy showers and thunderstorms to the area. Rain is expected to develop this afternoon in the western portion of the state, and will overspread the rest of the state tonight.

Showers and thunderstorms will continue tonight and tomorrow. The biggest threat from this system will be the locally heavy rainfall. Overall, the entire state should see totals from .50 to .75 inches with isolated spots seeing totals over 2 inches.

Scattered thunderstorms today, cold front tonight

The heat and humidity will last one more day, as high pressure is pushed east and a cold front approaches from the west. Ahead of the front, afternoon and evening thunderstorms will develop across the state. The storms will be slow moving and will produce locally heavy rainfall. Highs today will be around 90 degrees.

Shower and thunderstorm chances increase tonight as the cold front crosses the state

Tomorrow will still be warm, with highs in the mid 80s, but humidity levels will decrease, making it feel much more comfortable. A cold front associated with a deep area of low pressure will move through tomorrow night. This will set the stage for a nice Thursday, with highs in the low 80s.

Hot, humid Memorial Day weekend

The trough of low pressure that has brought unsettled weather to the area all week has pushed off the coast and high pressure has started to build in behind it. The high is situated to the south of the area and as it moves off the coast this weekend, southerly flow will increase, drawing warm humid air into the region for the weekend and into next week.

Today will become mostly sunny, with highs in the low to mid 80s.

Expect more of the same tomorrow with temperatures a bit warmer and a slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon. Highs will push into the upper 80s to around 90.

More showers and storms today, hot Memorial Day weekend on tap

The area of low pressure that has brought unsettled conditions to the area will persist one more day, continuing the chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. The storms will again be slow moving and capable of flash flooding. Highs today will be around 80.

The low weakens and is dislodged to the east tonight as high pressure begins to build in tomorrow. The high will bring a warm and humid airmass into the area, setting the stage for a very summer-like weekend. There will be a chance of garden-variety, isolated showers and thunderstorms each day with highs in the mid 80s tomorrow, rising to the low 90s by Monday.

Scattered showers and storms again today

Low pressure continues to sit across the eastern US, bringing unsettled weather to the region. Expect showers and thunderstorms to develop this afternoon, bringing locally heavy rain, gusty winds and possibly small hail. Highs today will be near 80.

The trough of low pressure will begin to weaken tomorrow, but will still provide a focus for showers and thunderstorms. Highs tomorrow will again be near 80 degrees.

Friday will be a transition day, as the trough weakens and is pushed out by an area of high pressure. Isolated showers and thunderstorms will still be possible, but will not be as widespread as they have been. Highs will begin to creep upwards, reaching the mid 80s.

Isolated showers and storms this afternoon

A cold front will move through the state tonight bringing with cooler and drier air with it but before it does, we will have one more day of warm and humid conditions.

The moist airmass will also allow another round of showers and thunderstorms to develop this afternoon. Today’s activity will be more isolated and will be more confined to areas along the bay. Some of these storms may become severe, with large hail and damaging wind being the primary threats. Highs today will push into the low to mid 80s.
