BALTIMORE — Good Thursday night!
Strong to severe thunderstorms are expected late this evening, primarily between 7 PM and 10 PM. The greatest threats will be torrential downpours and damaging wind gusts up to 60 mph.
Friday will bring another day of near-record heat and oppressive humidity. Heat index values are expected to climb to around 105°F, and a Heat Advisory has been issued for the region. The combination of intense heat and high humidity can lead to heat-related illnesses quickly, especially for those spending extended time outdoors.
As if the heat wasn't enough, another round of severe thunderstorms is expected Friday afternoon and evening, with the highest storm chances occurring between 3 PM and 9 PM. Damaging wind gusts of 60 to 70 mph will be the primary threat, though heavy rainfall and frequent lightning are also possible.
Stay weather-aware and be prepared for rapidly changing conditions over the next 24 hours.
