Warm and humid Friday with weekend showers for Maryland

3 weeks ago | wbaltv.com | Ava Marie

THE TIME NOW 443. AND EVEN FROM THIS CAMERA, IT ALREADY LOOKS HAZY. THERE’S STILL SMOKE HIGH IN THE ATMOSPHERE. BUT AT THIS POINT, THE AIR NEAR THE SURFACE HAS CLEANED UP ENOUGH THAT WE’RE EXPECTING THE AIR QUALITY TO BE IN THE SAFE RANGE FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. NOW WE’RE IN THE YELLOW, SO THERE’S STILL SOME POLLUTION AND HAZE OUT THERE, BUT WE’RE GOING TO STAY IN THE MODERATE YELLOW RANGE TODAY AND TOMORROW. AND THEN IT SHOULD BE GETTING EVEN BETTER AS WE HEAD THROUGHOUT THE WEEKEND.

COMING UP ON 444. WE’RE CHECKING IN ON BALTIMORE. WE’LL KEEP FOLLOWING THE BREAKING NEWS OF THAT OIL SPILL IN THE HARBOR. THE WEATHER. WE ALSO HAVE AN AIR QUALITY ALERT, AND IT’S MAINLY FOR THE NORTHERN AREAS OF BALTIMORE AND HARFORD COUNTIES. THESE AREAS THAT YOU SEE IN ORANGE, WHICH INCLUDE PARKTON, COCKEYSVILLE AND BEL AIR. AND THIS APPLIES TO ANYONE WHO’S MORE SENSITIVE TO POLLUTION. SOMEONE WITH A HEART OR LUNG CONDITION, YOUNG CHILDREN AND OLDER ADULTS COULD POTENTIALLY FEEL SYMPTOMS.
Sunny and more humid Wednesday with warmer temps

THE TIME FOR 45. WE’RE CHECKING IN ON ANNAPOLIS THIS MORNING. THE WIND WILL BE A LITTLE BREEZY OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST TODAY. YOU’LL NOTICE A HAZE IN THE SKY ONCE AGAIN. AND THAT’S GOING TO MAKE FOR A VIBRANT SUNRISE. BUT IT’S SOMETHING WE HAVE TO MONITOR FOR OUR AIR QUALITY. SO RIGHT NOW WE HAVE SMOKE OVERHEAD. AND THIS IS COMING ALL THE WAY DOWN FROM THE CANADIAN WILDFIRES, THE WIND THAT’S BEEN OUT OF THE NORTH THE PAST FEW DAYS HAS DRAGGED IN THAT SMOKE.

THE TIME 444. WE’RE CHECKING IN ON BALTIMORE THIS MORNING WITH DRY WEATHER, CLEAR SKIES. BUT WE’LL WATCH THE SUNRISE. A LITTLE HAZE OUT THERE ONCE AGAIN. GIVEN THE SMOKE THAT’S STILL IN THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE. IT’S STILL HANGING OVERHEAD. AND THIS IS COMING IN ALL THE WAY FROM THE FROM WILDFIRES THAT HAVE BROKE OUT REALLY EARLY IN THE SEASON. AND SO WE’RE GOING TO BE MONITORING THE SMOKE. AND SO IT’S STILL BE AROUND THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. BUT THEN IT STARTS TO DRIFT TO THE EAST THROUGH THE REST OF TODAY.

THE TIME NOW 445. WE ARE CHECKING IN TO ANNAPOLIS RIGHT NOW WHERE IT’S REALLY QUIET. THE WINDS ARE LIGHT. IT’S CLEAR AND IT’S COOL THIS MORNING. I KNOW IT’S THE MONTH OF JUNE NOW, BUT IT’S GOING TO FEEL CHILLY AS YOU STEP OUT THIS MORNING. NOW THAT WE’RE IN JUNE, LET’S CHECK IN ON THE STATS THIS TIME OF YEAR FOR THE BEGINNING OF THE MONTH. THE HIGHS USUALLY ARE NEAR 80, BUT BY THE END OF THE MONTH WE AVERAGE HIGHS IN THE UPPER 80S AND HURRICANE SEASON BEGINS THIS TIME OF YEAR.
Alert Day: Heavy rain, fog to start Friday before severe storms

4 weeks ago | wbaltv.com | Ava Marie

GO OUT AND CELEBRATE WITH OUR FAVORITE DRINKS. WELL, WE’RE LOOKING AT SOME HEAVY RAIN RIGHT NOW. IT JUST CAME THROUGH THE CITY. NOW IT’S AROUND HARFORD DEGREES, BUT MOVING EAST INTO CHESAPEAKE CITY CECIL TON IS POURING. LOOK AT THIS HEAVY RAIN THAT’S OVER ANNAPOLIS NOW, OVER THE BAY BRIDGE AND IN STEVENSVILLE. SO ALL OF THIS IS SLOWLY LIFTING TO THE EAST. THE GOOD NEWS IS I’M NOT SEEING LIGHTNING, SO IT’S JUST A HEAVY RAIN. THAT’S, OF COURSE, MAKING IT HARD TO SEE ON THE ROADS.
Areas of fog early before mostly cloudy and humid Thursday

WE’RE GIVING YOU A LIVE LOOK AT ANNAPOLIS RIGHT NOW, WHERE THE PAVEMENT STILL LOOKS A LITTLE DAMP JUST FROM ALL THE RAIN WE GOT OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS, BUT THE VISIBILITY IS PRETTY GOOD THERE. WE’LL BE WATCHING AS SOME FOG DEVELOPS AS IT’S MORE HUMID AND A LITTLE BIT WARMER TODAY. SO FAR, MOST OF THE FOG HAS ACTUALLY BEEN NORTH AND WEST UP TOWARDS WESTMINSTER.
Midweek rain and cooler temperatures

COMING UP ON 5.15. LOOK AT THOSE RAINDROPS ON THE CAMERA IN ANNAPOLIS. SO IT IS A SOGGY START TO THE DAY. THE WATER LOOKS CHOPPY AS WELL. WITH THE BREEZE. THERE WILL BE A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY ON THE BAY THAT LASTS ALL THE WAY THROUGH. TONIGHT. IT’S JUST GOING TO BE REALLY CHILLY WITH A HIGH TEMPERATURES ONLY NEAR 60. THAT’S ABOUT 20 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL, SO IF IT FEELS UNUSUALLY COOL, IT REALLY IS. NOW. TOMORROW IS NEAR NORMAL IN THE UPPER 70S WHEN WE GET SOME DRIER WEATHER AND A LITTLE BIT OF SUN. FRIDAY.
Mostly cloudy on Tuesday with chance for evening showers

THE TIME NOW, 445. WE’RE CHECKING IN ON ANNAPOLIS RIGHT NOW. WHERE IT DOES LOOK DRY. THE WIND WILL PICK UP A LITTLE BIT OUT OF THE SOUTHEAST. WE’LL HAVE TO WATCH THE TIDES. AND ALSO HOW CHOPPY THE WATER WILL GET. AND WE’RE GOING TO GET INTO A RAINY WEATHER PATTERN. SO TODAY WOULD BE A BETTER DAY TO BE OUT. BEFORE WE GET INTO A LOT OF RAIN STARTING THIS EVENING AND TOMORROW.
Cool and breezy for Friday as temps remain in the 60s

COMING UP ON 645. WE’RE CHECKING IN ON ANNAPOLIS AND LOOK HOW EARLY THE SKIES START TO BRIGHTEN UP. THAT IS INCREDIBLE. I MEAN, WE’RE STILL MORE THAN AN HOUR AWAY FROM SUNRISE, BUT WE’RE HITTING TWILIGHT ALREADY WITH SOME CLOUD COVER OVERHEAD, AND WE’RE REALLY FOCUSING ON ANNAPOLIS BECAUSE OF THE BIG NAVAL ACADEMY GRADUATION TODAY. AND I THINK THE WEATHER IS GOING TO SHAPE UP, ALTHOUGH IT’S GOING TO BE ON THE COOL SIDE, WILL BE IN THE 60S TODAY, WHICH IS ABOUT TEN DEGREES BELOW THE AVERAGE.
