Here's When Thunderstorms Could Roll Into Maryland

MARYLAND — Another severe weather system is expected to move into Maryland on Thursday, bringing with it the chance for numerous thunderstorms, heavy rainfall and possible flooding.

According to the latest National Weather Service forecast, conditions should remain dry through Thursday afternoon with noticeable humidity and temperatures reaching the lower 80s.

Forecasters said rain is expected to move into the region after 5 p.m. "Numerous" rounds of showers and thunderstorms are possible, according to the NWS.

Rain and storms are likely to continue through the overnight hours, with some localized heavy rainfall and flooding possible, forecasters said. Up to a half-inch of precipitation is expected.

According to the Capital Weather Gang, a high-altitude weather disturbance floating to the north will keep shower chances going through Friday afternoon. Temperatures will be cooler with highs only expected to reach the upper 60s.

Once skies clear by late Friday afternoon, a beautiful Mother's Day weekend is in store for the Baltimore area.

On Saturday, expect plenty of sunshine with a high near 76 degrees. Sunday will be much of the same with clear skies and temperatures reaching the lower 80s.

"A Gulf storm gathers strength, dousing the Southeast on Monday, but all we see is a slow increase in clouds with highs still in the 70s," the Capital Weather Gang said about the start of the upcoming work week. "Tuesday could offer a soaking rain for all those May flowers."
