BALTIMORE — Good evening everyone. We have been in Severe Storm Mode since 5 PM this evening talking about strong and damaging clusters of thunderstorms across the area with a few lingering on the Eastern Shore late in the 6 o'clock hour. Stay weather aware if you're going to be out at Pimlico today or Saturday! Spotty storms could pop up through the middle of the day before stronger storms arrive this evening into Saturday as a cold front approaches. This round could be the most intense. Large hail and damaging winds will be the main threats! An isolated tornado is not out of the question either. Saturday's storm potential will be limited IF the storms this evening hold together. If that falls apart, the left over energy could create a new round of storms Saturday. Both days are highlighted, but Friday is the only "slight risk" or level 2 out of 5 for short-lived strong to severe storms. Sunday will be drier and less active! Next week largely follows suit with dry skies and mild temperatures until we hit midweek.
