BALTIMORE — Happy Thursday! Another hot and humid day with highs in the mid-90s and heat indices in the lower-100s! The Storm Prediction Center has the area under a Marginal risk (level 1/5) for isolated strong-severe storms this afternoon and evening. They bubble up shortly after lunchtime and will linger through sunset. Heavy rain, hail, and strong wind gusts will be the main threats.
The heatwave breaks on Friday as temperatures only climb into the low-80s. A few spotty storms could develop to the west of the city. Hotter and more humid this weekend with daily rounds of showers and storms during the peak heating hours. This will linger into early next week before conditions dry out on Wednesday.
Have a sunny day!
