Another round of severe thunderstorms will pass through the region this afternoon. This is expected to be stronger than yesterday, and as a result, NOAA has placed a Moderate Risk for Central Maryland and Delmarva.
This report will focus on the suggested timeline with a live radar and lightning widget to compare.
The first extreme heat wave of the year will follow. Starting on Monday, Heat Index Values will be above 105°F.
Severe storms were focused on Central Maryland, south of Baltimore. A possible weak tornado was seen on video in Odenton. Nearby, tree damage, large hail over 1” in diameter, and local flooding were reported. Rainfall estimates of over 1 inch fell in some spots within a 10—to 20-minute period.

I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here, you may have missed it: I have dyslexia and found out during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region. One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I also can make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky. There has been no editor who can check my work while writing and to have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
