Impact weather with thunderstorms expected Wednesday evening (2024)

NOW 445. WE’RE CHECKING IN ON ANNAPOLIS THIS MORNING WITH DRY WEATHER. NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO GO OUT FOR A WALK AND ENJOY THE FRESH, COOLER AIR, BECAUSE BY THE AFTERNOON WE ARE EXPECTING THUNDERSTORMS TO MOVE IN. REALLY, IT’S COMFORTABLE TEMPERATURE WISE FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S, SO EVEN TRENDING SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL AS WE’VE SEEN A SERIES OF COLD FRONTS MOVE THROUGH THE AREA. AND THAT’S BRINGING IN LOW HUMIDITY AS WELL. NOW TOWARDS THE WEEKEND, WE START TO WARM UP, WHICH COULD BE GOOD TIMING AS A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO ENJOY THE START OF POOL SEASON NEXT WEEK. IT’S WARM IN THE 80S, BUT ALSO MORE HUMID, BUT NOT TOO MUCH RAIN COMING UP IN THAT FORECAST. TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE 50S IN THE LOW 60 NOW, SO IT FEELS REALLY FRESH OUTSIDE. YOU STEP OUT OF THE HOUSE AND YOU PROBABLY THINK IT MIGHT FEEL A LITTLE BIT COOL. AND THAT’S THANKS TO THE LOW HUMIDITY. SO WE’RE GOING TO BE DRY THROUGHOUT THE MORNING. NO ISSUES. IF YOU WANT TO GO FOR A WALK OR A RUN OR ANYTHING THROUGH THE MORNING COMMUTE, EVEN AS WE GET THROUGH ABOUT 11 AND NOON, WE’RE STILL EXPECTING DRY WEATHER HERE. BUT BY THEN YOU’RE STARTING TO SEE THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP IN WESTERN MARYLAND. THESE WILL BE COMING OUR WAY THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING, SO SOMETIME BETWEEN ABOUT 1:00 AND 3:00, WE’RE GOING TO SEE THOSE MOVING TOWARDS THE AREA. AND WHEN THEY COME THROUGH, THEY’RE GOING TO BE BRIEFLY HEAVY WITH GUSTY WINDS. SO CERTAINLY THIS COULD IMPACT SOME OF YOUR AFTERNOON PLANS. I WOULD HAVE A BACKUP IDEA IN MIND OF WHATEVER YOU HAD PLANNED TO DO, AND THEN CERTAINLY CHECK THE RADAR BEFORE YOU PLAN TO BE OUT. KNOWING THESE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE COMING YOUR WAY. SO ONCE WE GET ONE ROUND, WE COULD SEE AT LEAST A FEW MORE TIMES OF SHOWERS AND STORMS ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE EVENING. I’D KEEP THAT CHANCE THROUGH AT LEAST NINE AND 10:00 THIS EVENING, AND THEN AFTER THAT, EVERYTHING IS STARTING TO WIND DOWN. SO KIDS HEADING OFF TO SCHOOL, NO ISSUES. THIS MORNING AT THE BUS STOP, WE HAVE CLEAR CONDITIONS AND IT’S COMFORTABLE. IT’S EVEN A LITTLE ON THE COOL SIDE LUNGE PRANK AT THE LOW 70S. STILL WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES DURING THE AFTERNOON AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS SO THAT COULD MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR ANY AFTER SCHOOL PRACTICES OR GAMES. KNOWING THERE COULD BE MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND STORMS BY TONIGHT. THE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE BEFORE ABOUT 10 P.M., THEN A LEFTOVER SHOWER BEFORE IT’S CLEARING LATE TONIGHT AND LOWS IN THE UPPER 50S TOMORROW LOOKS LIKE A REALLY PLEASANT DAY. THE BREEZE WILL PICK UP AGAIN FROM THE NORTHWEST, AND THAT’S BRINGING IN THE LOW HUMIDITY. 70 TOMORROW WITH SUNSHINE. SO BESIDES THIS AFTERNOON, YOU’VE GOT A LOT OF GREAT OUTDOOR WEATHER COMING UP. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT ON THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY. I’M ALREADY LOOKING FORWARD TO A LONG BIKE RIDE OUTDOORS NOW THIS WEEKEND IS STILL PRETTY NICE AND A LITTLE WARMER IN THE AFTERNOONS, WHICH IS GREAT FOR SWIMMING. SUNDAY. A FEW MORE CLOUDS AND JUST A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND IT DOES TURN HUM
