Good Sunday evening!

Severe storms are likely across parts of Maryland on Monday. Here's what we know:

⚠️ Storm Timing: 12:00 PM – 8:00 PM

⚠️ Primary Threats: Large hail, damaging wind gusts, localized flooding, and an isolated tornado or two

⚠️ Greatest Risk Area: Eastern Maryland and the Eastern Shore

Satellite and radar imagery indicate a strong warm front will lift north through the region early Monday. As this occurs, humidity and atmospheric instability will rapidly increase.

By early afternoon, showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop across eastern Maryland. Some of these storms could become strong to severe, producing torrential downpours, frequent lightning, large hail, damaging winds, and even a tornado or two.

A cold front will sweep through Monday night, bringing an end to the severe weather threat and ushering in drier, more comfortable conditions for Tuesday and Wednesday.

Stay weather aware and be prepared to receive warnings tomorrow afternoon and evening.
