Storm chances increasing each day moving ahead

Temperatures warm into the mid and upper 80s on Monday afternoon, with scattered showers and storms. A couple storms could produce gusty winds, heavy rain and lots of lightning. "When thunder roars, move indoors."

The chance of rain and storms spikes on Tuesday. There will be a morning and early afternoon round of rain and thunder. A second round of late afternoon and evening storms is possible. A few storms may become severe on Tuesday. Damaging winds will be the greatest threat if a storm becomes severe. Lunch-time plans and the evening commute could both be impacted.

A few more showers and storms are possible on Wednesday, mainly south of Baltimore.
