More Storms Possible In MD Thursday, Flooding Remains A Risk: Forecasters

Another round of thunderstorms, damaging winds and flooding is possible across Maryland on Thursday, according to forecasters with the National Weather Service.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected in the Baltimore region mainly after 1 p.m., the NWS said. A few storms could produce strong wind gusts Thursday afternoon and evening.

Overall, models suggest that any showers and storms will be less numerous and intense than they have been in the past two days, according to The Washington Post's Capital Weather Gang. On Wednesday night, severe thunderstorms spawned flash flood and tornado warnings across the state.

Thursday's storms could be capable of producing gusty winds and downpours, and NWS forecasters said "an isolated instance of flooding is possible this afternoon and evening."

As of noon Thursday, only a hazardous weather outlook was in effect for the Baltimore region. A flood watch was in effect for portions of southeast Maryland.

Temperatures on Thursday are expected to be in the low to mid-80s, accompanied by high humidity, forecasters said.

The stormy pattern will likely continue through the weekend and into next week, according to the NWS. Storms are expected every day through Tuesday, with high temperatures in the upper 80s.
