May 27 Weather Cloudy With Rain Arriving Late Then A Soggy Wednesday And Stormy End To The Week
Tuesday, May 27, 2025
Clouds have already filled in ahead of a developing storm. This large system and persistent pattern will bring rain a little faster today, reaching the western suburbs of Washington and Baltimore by the end of the day.
The main event will be on Wednesday, with steady rain that will be heavy at times. Low Pressure will pull in a strong wind from the East, making it a chilly and raw day as well.
The setup from Thursday to Saturday keeps more rounds of rain and thunderstorms, with temperatures trying to warm a little.
A pattern change may be noticeable Sunday with the sun returning, then we could see a hint of summer heat by the middle of next week.
Morning Temperatures
Remaining unseasonably chilly with temperatures in the 40s and 50s as clouds spread in.
Morning Surface Weather
A large storm is developing in the persistent pattern. Clouds have already moved in and continue to advance through the Northeast as the system organizes. Plenty of moisture will fill in, and another source of cool and unsettled air feeds in from the Northern Plains.
The severe storm threat will remain across the Gulf States.
Rain Forecast Noon to Midnight
Afternoon Focus at 4 PM

RESTATING MY MESSAGE ABOUT DYSLEXIA
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
