The remains of Ida are set to arrive Wednesday morning with rain. The heavy rain, likely flooding, and potential severe storms with tornados will arrive by evening and overnight.
Before all of that, we have some showers and thunderstorms today to plot out. After all of that, much cooler and more pleasant temperatures will settle in for the holiday weekend.
Morning Surface Weather
The core remnant Low of ‘Ida’ is not longer tropical, but we will still refer to the name. It is located in northern Mississippi. That core is forecast to move through central Maryland Wednesday night.
The cold front locally will be responsible for showers and storms today.

Here we see the rain from Ida arriving on Wednesday, well ahead of the center passing through Maryland Thursday morning.
The heaviest rain is forecast to reach into central PA, but I have verification of recent storms to the south. I think we still need to watch that core rain field.
