BALTIMORE — Happy Friday!
Showers have returned early this evening, with a strong storm system set to move into the region, bringing the potential for severe thunderstorms. Storms are expected to arrive around 5 PM and linger through midnight. A flood watch has been issued for the 7 o'clock hour into early Saturday morning. The Storm Prediction Center has the majority of Maryland under a Slight Risk (level 2/5) as storms could be more scattered but short-lived. Damaging winds and large hail will be the primary threats. While the chance is low, an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out. Scattered instances of flooding are possible. A few scattered showers and isolated storms are possible again Saturday afternoon. Drier skies on Sunday with highs in the mid-70s. Heating up next week with highs in the upper-80s and low-90s mid/late-week.
Stay up to date on weather!
