Tuesday starts mild and bright in Baltimore, with temperatures in the low 60s climbing to around 80°F by this afternoon. A light west wind keeps it feeling pretty comfortable, so lunch breaks on the patio and quick outdoor errands are still in the safe zone before the weather turns up the drama.
Tonight: Late-Night Shower Chance
A warm front lifts through overnight, bringing about a 30% chance of showers and a brief thunderstorm mainly between roughly 2 a.m. and 3 a.m., with a low near 65°F. Humidity nudges higher by daybreak as winds swing around to the southeast. According to the National Weather Service, rain is not expected to be widespread, but a few pockets of heavier downpours could sneak through while most of the city is asleep.
Wednesday Into Thursday: Heat Builds, Severe Threat
Wednesday heats up into the mid-80s with an afternoon chance for isolated showers or storms. The real jolt comes Thursday, when highs jump into the mid-90s and dewpoints climb into the mid-60s, making it feel sticky and more like midsummer than a midweek. The Storm Prediction Center keeps the region in a Slight Risk for severe thunderstorms Thursday into Thursday night, with damaging straight-line winds and isolated large hail as the main concerns. If you have outdoor plans Thursday afternoon or evening, line up an indoor backup and keep an eye out for any watches or warnings.
Friday Through The Weekend: Cooler And Drier
A cold front should sweep through Thursday night, ushering in drier air and bringing highs back down into the upper 70s to low 80s for the weekend, along with more comfortable humidity. Tides are expected to ramp up later today into Wednesday and could push low-lying streets and docks in Annapolis into minor tidal flooding, so waterfront residents and boaters should stay tuned to local tide and marine forecasts. Marine interests should also plan for gusty southerly winds and possible Small Craft Advisories on Thursday before conditions ease behind the front.
