BALTIMORE — Good evening!

Haze from wildfire smoke will linger through Thursday. Luckily, air quality won't be impacted too much because the smoke is at high altitudes. Anyone who has respiratory issues should exercise increased caution.

Temperatures will range from 85-90° over the next several days with no cool down until the weekend. Our dry stretch of weather will continue through Thursday, then our attention turns to a low pressure system that will push offshore on Friday. As of now the odds are we stay dry Friday, however, a pop-up shower can't be ruled out.

The better chance for rain arrives on Saturday as a cold front slides through the region.
