BALTIMORE — The Storm Prediction Center has issued a rare Level 4 out of 5 (Moderate Risk) for severe storms. The last time a risk this high was issued for parts of our area was August 7, 2023. This means that the atmosphere will be capable of producing large hail, damaging winds, and a few tornadoes. The greatest threat appears to be between 12-8 PM, when a squall line moves from west to east across Maryland. These lines of storms are notorious for producing powerful straight-line winds, which could gust between 60–75 mph. Now is a good time to review your severe weather safety plan and make sure you and your family are prepared.
Stay safe!
