Drier weather returns to Maryland on Sunday

The First Alert Forecast is trending drier for the back-half of the weekend, ahead of much hotter weather across Maryland. Get outside and enjoy Sunday. 

Drying out across Maryland on Sunday

Sunday begins with temperatures in the upper 60s and lower 70s... and a decent bit of sunshine. The forecast continues to trend drier with lower humidity across Maryland. Sunday is going to be a great day to get outside.  The chance of rain will also be much lower than the past several days - focused mainly well south and west of the Baltimore area.

Remember the sunscreen if you're going to be outside for a while.

It stays seasonably warm and dry on Monday, with afternoon temperatures peaking the mid-80s. 

Hot weather returns to Maryland by midweek

Temperatures start an upward trend on Tuesday. 

By midweek, temperatures soar into the mid and upper 90s both Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. Humidity won't be as bad as the July 4th week. But, heat indices could still soar above 100° during the afternoon hours. Alert Days are possible on Wednesday and Thursday, due to the heat.

Hot weather will gradually ease late in the week. Unfortunately, there is going to be another risk of gusty thunderstorms on Friday. The First Alert Weather Team is keeping an eye on the threat and will be passing along updates through the workweek.
