Baltimore, Md. – Baltimore residents should prepare for a wet and stormy stretch this week as scattered showers linger into Tuesday and stronger thunderstorms develop by Wednesday afternoon. The unsettled weather could complicate midweek travel before clearing out in time for a warmer, sunnier weekend.
According to the National Weather Service, a slight chance of showers remains overnight and into early Tuesday, with another round possible by evening. Conditions worsen on Wednesday when thunderstorms are expected to develop after 2 p.m., bringing heavy rain, gusty winds, and the potential for lightning across central Maryland.
Commuters on I-95 and the Baltimore Beltway may encounter slower travel Wednesday evening, with visibility reduced during downpours. Outdoor events and late-day activities could face delays or cancellations. Residents are advised to secure outdoor belongings and plan ahead for shifting weather.
Showers taper by Thursday, but another brief round of rain may return that night. By Friday, sunshine takes over, bringing highs in the upper 80s through the weekend, though scattered showers could pop up again Sunday.
More updates may be issued if stronger storms threaten Baltimore and surrounding counties midweek.
