At 4:30 PM, Doppler Radar looked much more robust than even the simulation I showed earlier.
Watch this line of storms from the south get close to Annapolis and Rt. 50 around 6 PM.
This means southern Maryland, Washington, Kent Island, Cambridge and Easton get it before dark.
Then metro Baltimore will get in on this, and the line arriving from the west through midnight.
Note: Central Maryland has already reached a record High Temperature this afternoon at BWI. This is helping to fuel the intensity of the storms on the way…
See the Live radar and Lightning widget and Forecast Simulation is at the bottom of this quick post.

Here we can see a better view of the two lines about to clash over our region.
The strong storm line moving north into southern Maryland
And
The line ahead of the cold front arriving from the west.
Reminder about alerts should any be issued.
- Watch means it might happen.
- Warning means it is happening and being tracked.

The large circulation with the upper Low swirling in Indiana is the driving force.

We will watch for scattered showers forming in the southern Bay to move north. That would enhance the eruption of storms this evening.
If that does not develop, then the activity will be less robust than shown here.
