Temperatures cool, storms fall apart across Maryland Sunday Evening
Rain and storms cooled temperatures across much of the state Sunday evening, following earlier heat index temperatures well over 100° in many areas. The forecast continues to gradually dry out as temperatures cool through the evening. It'll remain muggy.
Intense heat continues in Baltimore through mid-week
The workweek begins on a drier note, with more hot weather in the forecast.
Only very spotty rain is expected Monday afternoon, with temperatures warming into the low and mid-90s across central Maryland. The air will be just a bit drier Monday afternoon and evening. It'll still feel like it's closer to 100°, but not in the 105° to 108° range like we felt on Sunday.
It gets hotter Tuesday, into Wednesday. Actual temperatures soar into the mid and upper 90s. It'll feel like it's well over 100°, with more humidity in the air. The forecast remains mostly dry Tuesday, but a few showers and storms are possible Wednesday ahead of a front and big change in our local weather. Alert Days are possible on Tuesday and Wednesday, with heat index temperatures soaring well over 100° again.
Much cooler weather is in Maryland's forecast later this week
A midweek front fires off more storms on Wednesday and Thursday. A few storms could become strong and produce heavy rain. Behind the wet weather, much cooler conditions arrive. Plan on cooler-than-normal afternoons, low humidity and a dry forecast Friday on into next weekend. Afternoon temperatures remain in the low to mid-80s. The weather will be perfect to get outside!
