Shower chance returns Friday before a gorgeous Saturday in Maryland

Typical August heat and humidity sticks around for Friday in parts of Maryland. A few passing showers Friday afternoon and evening will clear the area just in time for a gorgeous Saturday. 

Muggy weather into Friday, a few showers to end the work week

Thursday was hotter and a bit more humid. The temperature peaked around 90° late in the afternoon. Though, it felt like the low to mid-90s. 

Tonight, we could see a few passing showers move through the area. 

Friday will be very warm and muggy with a few passing showers and possibly a few storms. The day, as a whole, will not be a washout. The higher chance of showers comes Friday afternoon and evening. 

Weekend weather is nice Saturday, few storms and muggier Sunday

Saturday is the pick day of the weekend. With moderate humidity, a mainly dry forecast and sunshine mixing with clouds, it'll be the better day for plans. There is a low chance for an isolated shower Saturday afternoon.

Under a mix of sun and clouds, temperatures will peak in the middle 80s on Saturday afternoon. If you're planning on going to the Ravens' first preseason game against the Eagles on Saturday evening, the forecast looks awesome by August standards.

The First Alert Weather team is forecasting quiet conditions, decent humidity and a kickoff temperature near 80°. Temperatures will be in the middle to upper 70s for most of the game. 

There will be some changes to our weather on Sunday. Plan on more clouds, especially during the afternoon and evening hours with a growing chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms. The chance of rain and thunder increases on Monday, before we dry out nicely for the middle of next week. Some of the thunderstorms Sunday afternoon and evening could be strong, but the data indicating this is still quite mixed, so stay tuned to future forecasts.
