Baltimore, MD – Thunderstorms are expected to impact regions west of I-95 in Maryland today, as the state faces a turbulent weather weekend. Areas such as Frederick and Hagerstown could see severe weather, with a high likelihood of thunderstorms bringing heavy rain and strong winds.
According to the National Weather Service (NWS) Baltimore/Washington, today’s storms are expected to push temperatures into the low 90s, exacerbating humidity. The risk of thunderstorms will persist through Saturday, with conditions becoming more humid and unstable. Sunday’s forecast brings a significant concern for flooding, especially in areas prone to heavy rainfall. Rain chances remain high, with the potential for localized flooding, particularly in low-lying regions.
The unsettled weather will continue into Monday, where a mix of clouds and scattered showers will prevail, potentially adding to the flood risk. However, a cold front is expected to move through by Tuesday, bringing cooler, more stable conditions. Temperatures are forecasted to drop into the mid-70s, with clearer skies by Wednesday.
Residents west of I-95 are advised to stay updated on weather alerts and prepare for possible flooding over the weekend. The NWS recommends monitoring local forecasts and having a plan in place should severe weather warnings be issued.
