A stormy pattern ahead for Maryland 

Muggy weather will hang around through the middle of next week, as we experience typical late summer weather in Maryland. Afternoon highs will reach into the lower 90s, with afternoon and early evening storms likely each day. 

The temperatures, combined with the higher humidity levels, will make feels-like temperatures approach near 100 degrees.  

A stormy weekend on deck

A few storms are possible Thursday, but more storms will pop up over the next few days. Models are indicating scattered afternoon thunderstorms for Friday and more widespread storms possible on Saturday. Storms that develop will produce intense lightning, localized street flooding and a few pockets of damaging winds. 

Aside from the storms, it will remain hot and humid. The heat will peak early next week, with highs potentially into the mid-90s. A strong cold front should lower temperatures back into the 80s by the middle of next week.
