Rain and breezy temps across region on Tuesday

2 days ago | wbaltv.com | Tom Tasselmyer

RIGHT NOW. AND TONY, WE’VE GOT AT LEAST COMFORTABLE TEMPERATURES LEADING INTO THE RAINY WEATHER COMING UP MIDWEEK. IT’S BEEN A BEAUTIFUL COUPLE OF DAYS AND STILL NICE OUTSIDE. 75 DEGREES IN CLARKSVILLE AT THIS HOUR WITH LIGHT SOUTHEAST WINDS. THE CLOUDY SKIES ARE GOING TO CONTINUE TO THICKEN UP AND THE RAIN WILL COME IN LATER TONIGHT. AND THE NICE WEATHER WE’VE BEEN ENJOYING IS ABOUT TO GIVE WAY TO THAT RAINY WEATHER THAT TONY WAS TALKING ABOUT.
Sunny skies and mild temps to begin weekend

WHEN THEY COULD DO THAT. IS THAT THE CASE? YEAH, I THINK WE CAN GIVE IT KIND OF THE ALL CLEAR. AS FAR AS NO FROST FREEZE OR SNOW ON THE WAY. AS A MATTER OF FACT, TODAY, THE NINTH DAY OF MAY, IS THE LATEST IN THE YEAR WE’VE EVER OFFICIALLY HAD SNOW IN BALTIMORE. IT’S OCCURRED IN THE MONTH OF MAY, THREE DIFFERENT TIMES ON RECORD, GOING BACK TO THE LATE 1800S. ONE WAS ON MAY THE 1ST, 1963. JUST A TRACE. NONE OF THESE WERE MEASURABLE SNOWFALL EVENTS, BUT SNOWFLAKES IN THE AIR.
Temps dip, rain moves in across Baltimore region

TASSELMYER ENOUGH SUNSHINE TO GET THE TEMPERATURE UP TO NEAR THE 80 DEGREE MARK IN MANY LOCATIONS TODAY. WHEN YOU LOOK AT TEMPERATURES AROUND THE REGION RIGHT NOW, YOU CAN SEE WHERE SOME SHOWERS HAVE POPPED UP. OWINGS MILLS IS DOWN TO 68. THAT’S COOLED OFF BY SOME RAIN MOVING THROUGH WHILE DOWNTOWN BALTIMORE IS AT 81 DEGREES. CHESTERTOWN ON THE EASTERN SHORE IS AT 75, AND TEMPERATURES ARE RELATIVELY MILD ALL AROUND THE REGION.
Rain to fall Thursday and Friday, clear by weekend

WE STILL HAVE SOME RAIN TO DISCUSS OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. YEAH, UNFORTUNATELY, ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS COMING OUR WAY DOES STILL LOOK LIKE IT WILL GET OUT OF HERE IN TIME FOR A NICE UPCOMING MOTHER’S DAY WEEKEND. SO A LITTLE WET WEATHER TO GET THROUGH BEFORE THAT BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND. 69 RIGHT NOW, NOT TOO BAD IF YOU HAVE PLANS TO BE OUT AND ABOUT THIS EVENING. IT’S GOING TO BE REALLY NICE OUTSIDE.
Overnight rain makes way for clear Wednesday

HERE IN THE RAINFALL PATTERN ACROSS THE REGION. THERE ARE SOME SHOWERS UP HERE ON TV HILL IN NORTHWEST BALTIMORE INTO EASTERN PARTS OF HOWARD COUNTY AND ACROSS A GOOD PART OF BALTIMORE COUNTY. BUT THAT’S KIND OF AN ISOLATED BATCH OF SHOWERS THAT CONTINUES TO ROTATE OFF TO THE NORTH. A COUPLE LIGHTNING STRIKES EMBEDDED IN THERE. SO POTENTIAL FOR A RUMBLE OR TWO OF THUNDER AS THIS BATCH MOVES THROUGH. THIS IS GOING TO WIND DOWN EARLY THIS EVENING.
Chance for thunderstorms decreases Tuesday

TASSELMYER. EVEN WITH THE CLOUDY SKIES AND SOME SHOWERS AROUND. TEMPERATURES DID MANAGE TO GET BACK TO NORMAL EVEN ABOVE NORMAL IN MANY LOCATIONS. JUST ENOUGH SUN BREAKING THROUGH THE CLOUD COVER FROM TIME TO TIME TO GET THE TEMPERATURE AT BWI MARSHALL TO 74. ON A DAY WHEN OUR NORMAL HIGH IS 73, THE MORNING LOW WAS QUITE MILD. AT 64. WE TYPICALLY DROP TO ABOUT 50 THIS TIME OF YEAR, AND WE HAVE PICKED UP A LITTLE BIT OF RAIN, SOME SPOTS GETTING A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN OTHER SPOTS.

TASSELMYER. WARM, MUGGY DAY ACROSS THE AREA. TRIGGERING SOME SHOWERS AND SOME THUNDERSTORMS AND SOME OF THE STORMS THIS EVENING COULD BE STRONG. WE’VE BEEN MONITORING SOME ACTIVITY JUST TO OUR SOUTH AND WEST THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON, AND THAT WILL CONTINUE TO BLOSSOM OVER THE COURSE OF THE NEXT FEW HOURS. THE HIGH TODAY AT BWI MARSHALL WAS 74. THAT’S JUST A LITTLE BIT ABOVE AVERAGE, BUT THE MORNING LOW DIDN’T COOL OFF MUCH AT ALL.

BALTIMORE AT THE PRESENT TIME. EXACTLY. RIGHT NOW, THAT AREA YOU’VE PINPOINTED SOUTH AND WEST OF US LOOKS LIKE SO FAR IT’S BEEN THE MOST ACTIVE AREA FOR THIS AFTERNOON’S ACTIVITY, AS WE’RE PICKING UP ON SOME SCATTERED SHOWERS, SOME LIGHTNING STRIKES COMING OUT OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY, TRACKING NORTHWEST INTO FREDERICK COUNTY AND STAYING TO THE SOUTH AND WEST OF THE IMMEDIATE BALTIMORE AREA. MUCH DRIER OVER ON THE EASTERN SHORE, AT LEAST FOR NOW.
Region could see some severe storms this weekend

THIS WEEKEND? WEEKEND IS LOOKING LIKE WE’RE GOING TO HAVE MORE SHOWERS, MORE CLOUDS, ESPECIALLY SECOND HALF OF THE WEEKEND. SUNDAY IS LOOKING A LITTLE BETTER NOW THAN TOMORROW, ALTHOUGH TOMORROW COULD EVEN BRING A FEW STRONG THUNDERSTORMS. SO IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR WHERE YOU JUST GOT TO HAVE TO KIND OF KEEP AN EYE ON THE SKY AND WATCH OUT FOR THE SHOWERS AS THEY POP UP. UNSEASONABLY WARM TEMPERATURES ALL AROUND THE METRO AT THIS HOUR. UPPER 80S IN DOWNTOWN BALTIMORE.
Hot and sunny across Baltimore region on Friday

AHEAD. GOT TO TAKE THOSE PRECAUTIONS FOR SURE. YEAH, NEVER TOO SOON TO START BRUSHING UP ON THOSE HOT WEATHER SAFETY TIPS FOR SURE. TEMPERATURES UP INTO THE 80S. NOW, THANKFULLY THE HUMIDITY IS NOT TOO BAD RIGHT NOW AND IT SHOULD STAY THAT WAY. ALTHOUGH WE HAVE A WARM FRONT COMING THROUGH TONIGHT, WHICH IS GOING TO MAKE IT FEEL VERY SUMMERY OVERNIGHT TONIGHT AND INTO THE DAY TOMORROW. 84 CURRENT TEMPERATURE AT THE INNER HARBOR A LIGHT SOUTHEAST WIND, 38% HUMIDITY. SO AGAIN IT’S PRETTY DECENT.
