WEATHER BLOG: Severe Weather Expected Sunday

Slow moving showers and t-storms are forming over the mountains. This moisture will continue to push east this evening and overnight, but should weaken as it approaches central Maryland. Some shower activity will linger into tomorrow morning. A significant break in the precip is expected later tomorrow morning into Sunday afternoon. By about 2PM tomorrow, our main focus will point to the potential for severe weather developing across the region as a strong cold front approaches. There will be an incredible amount of moisture to play with tomorrow, so any strong/severe thunderstorm can easily drop a couple of inches of rainfall in a very short amount of time. We will mainly be concerned about damaging winds and flash-flooding, but a brief tornado spin-up cannot be ruled out. We will continue to track this potential for severe weather in the First Warning Weather Center. Keep checking back for updates.
