Baltimore, MD – Residents can expect a sweltering Tuesday with highs near 94°F and a slight risk for thunderstorms late in the day, potentially impacting evening commutes and outdoor plans. The heat, paired with increased humidity, will make conditions feel even warmer.
According to the National Weather Service, a few showers could develop between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m., with thunderstorms more likely after 5 p.m. Southeast winds will increase to 5–8 mph during the afternoon. While precipitation chances sit around 20%, any storm that forms could produce brief heavy rain, gusty winds, and lightning.
Drivers should plan for slower travel if storms develop during the rush hour window, and residents are advised to stay hydrated and limit strenuous outdoor activity during peak heat. Outdoor events scheduled for late afternoon should have a weather contingency.
This hot, storm-capable pattern will carry into Wednesday, with highs pushing 96°F and a higher storm chance by late morning. The National Weather Service urges continued caution as the heat and humidity persist through midweek.
