METEOROLOGIST ALINA LEE. LOTS OF SUNSHINE AT THIS HOUR AND ALSO HEATING UP PRETTY QUICKLY. IN FACT, WE’RE ALREADY SEEING WIDESPREAD 80S ACROSS THE AREA. I DO WANT TO START OFF WITH OUR FUTURECAST MODEL, BECAUSE IT’S GOING TO BE A PRETTY WARM DAY AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE NEXT 24 HOURS. YOU’LL NOTICE HERE ON OUR FUTURECAST SHOWING YOU MID 80S FOR HIGHS HERE. IN MOST PART FOR CENTRAL MARYLAND. AND THEN WE GET DEEPER INTO THE EVENING.

WITH METEOROLOGIST ALINA LEE. WELL, IT FEELS A LITTLE BIT LIKE SUMMER AROUND OUR AREA, ESPECIALLY WITH THE UNSEASONABLY WARM AIR ALONG WITH THE HUMIDITY. HOWEVER, AS WE GET THROUGH THE NEXT FEW DAYS, HUMIDITY LEVELS WILL BE GOING DOWN. HOWEVER, WE’LL BE TALKING ABOUT WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES STILL AS WE HEAD THROUGH AT LEAST THE MIDDLE AND SECOND HALF OF THE WORKWEEK, BUT THEN ALSO WE’RE GOING TO BE TRACKING OUR NEXT CHANCES FOR RAIN JUST IN TIME FOR THE WEEKEND.

WELL, THE UNSEASONABLY WARM AIR THAT WE’VE EXPERIENCED FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS FINALLY COMES TO AN END AS WE HEAD INTO THIS WEEKEND, ALONG WITH THE DRY CONDITIONS, I KNOW WE HAD A BRIEF SHOWER MOVE OVER PARTS OF THE METRO EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON. DIDN’T LAST TOO LONG, BUT MORE SUBSTANTIAL RAIN. CERTAINLY ON TAP FOR THIS UPCOMING SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. SO SHOWERS TO WAKE UP TO EARLY SATURDAY, THEN A FEW THUNDERSTORMS COULD REDEVELOP LATER ON IN THE I WOULD SAY LATE AFTERNOON EARLY EVENING HOURS.

THAT’S RIGHT, WE ARE EXPECTING SOME RAIN TO MOVE INTO THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON OR THE REST OF THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. WE’RE TRACKING IT RIGHT NOW, AND WE’VE GOT MORE RAIN ON THE WAY AS WE HEAD INTO THIS UPCOMING WEEKEND, LOOKING AT OUR SATELLITE AND RADAR OVER THE LAST THREE HOURS, WE’VE BEEN WATCHING THIS LINE OF SHOWERS AND EVEN SOME LIGHTNING STRIKES. SO A FEW THUNDERSTORMS THAT TRIED TO DIVE TO THE SOUTH AND EAST AND HEAD CLOSER TO THE BALTIMORE METRO.

METEOROLOGIST ALINA LEE. WELL, WE OBVIOUSLY KNOW IT’S WARM AND HUMID OUT THERE RIGHT NOW. AND THAT TREND CONTINUING FOR AT LEAST ONE MORE DAY, ESPECIALLY THE HUMIDITY THAT MIGHT EVEN LINGER INTO THE WEEKEND AS OUR NEXT STORM SYSTEM COMES THROUGH AND INCREASES THE MOISTURE IN OUR ATMOSPHERE. BUT OF COURSE, WE’RE TALKING ABOUT TEMPERATURES ABOVE NORMAL TOMORROW. ONE MORE DRY DAY AHEAD OF US BEFORE THAT SYSTEM ARRIVES. AND THAT’S GOING TO BRING US A BIT MORE OF AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN.
