BALTIMORE — Storms and showers are back heading into the weekend. I want to say up front, that there is a good deal of uncertainty with these storms chances, but it is best to be prepared, especially if you plan to be outside at the Black-Eyed Susan race or Preakness. There are a few storm chances to track here. The first starts out Friday morning, where a few forecast models have some strong storms in play. It is important to note that there isn't much consistency in model runs. The atmosphere will have a strong "lid" or cap that will prevent storm growth, but if we can break that, storms will strengthen. Aside from some midday spotty storms and showers our next area to watch is Friday evening into Saturday. There is potential for a line of storms to develop that could be strong. If that can hold together coming east, the storms on Saturday look limited. If that falls apart, the left over energy could create a new round of storms Saturday. Both days are highlighted as a "slight risk" or level 2 out of 5 for strong to severe storms. Either way we will be watching the weather very closely over the next few days. Sunday is looking dry and warm. Next week largely follows suit with dry skies and mild temperatures until we hit midweek.
