Baltimore, Maryland – Scorching heat is set to bear down on Central Maryland Wednesday, with Baltimore temperatures soaring to 96°F under full sun.
According to the National Weather Service, the city will see calm morning conditions before northwesterly winds pick up around 6 mph by mid-afternoon. The combination of high heat and little cloud cover could increase the risk of heat-related illness, especially for those without access to cooling or shade. Officials urge residents to stay hydrated, limit strenuous outdoor activity, and check on vulnerable neighbors and pets.
Wednesday night will stay clear with lows near 73°F, but Thursday will bring more sun and another spike to 95°F. The heat won’t break until late Friday, when clouds return and rain chances rise to 30% after 2 p.m. Thunderstorms may also develop Friday night, offering temporary relief and slightly cooler air.
Weekend conditions remain unstable. Both Saturday and Sunday carry a 60% and 40% chance of showers, respectively, with highs in the mid-80s and overnight lows in the upper 60s. Thunderstorms are also possible Saturday night.
Prepare now by securing outdoor items, monitoring local alerts, and staying informed as Maryland braces for back-to-back days of oppressive heat and unstable weekend weather.
