| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 1004pm EDT Monday Jun 22 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... Severe Thunderstorm Watches have been cancelled with residual showers and perhaps a few isolated thunderstorms lingering overnight into Tuesday morning. A Marginal Severe T-Storm Outlook for portions of the VA Piedmont and southern MD Tuesday. .KEY MESSAGES... - 1) On and off showers and perhaps a few thunderstorms look to continue tonight into Tuesday as a cold front pushes through. - 2) A strong cold front brings back rain and thunderstorm chances for this upcoming weekend. KEY MESSAGE 1...On and off showers and perhaps a few thunderstorms look to continue tonight into Tuesday as a cold front pushes through. The Severe Thunderstorm Watch (375) has been allowed to expire with the last of the severe weather exiting the Delmarva and lower Chesapeake Bay. A few residual showers and perhaps a spotty thunderstorm are possible overnight as the cold front drops into the region. The front will be slow to sink south and east keeping on and off shower chances through the overnight period into Tuesday morning. As the front drops south an additional wave of low pressure will develop along it leading to widespread coverage of showers east of the Alleghenies Tuesday morning into Tuesday afternoon. 18z/00z CAMS illustrate this, especially east of Blue Ridge and into southern MD/VA Piedmont where additional thunderstorms are possible Tuesday afternoon into early Tuesday evening. Storm Prediction Center continues to hold a Marginal Risk (Level 1 out of 5) for southern MD and VA northern neck Tuesday afternoon with wind as the primary concern. Elsewhere, a residual thunderstorm cannot be ruled out although the severe weather threat is very low since we will be on the stable side of the boundary. Conditions dry out from west to east late Tuesday afternoon into Tuesday evening with lowering humidity and clearing skies Tuesday night into Wednesday as brief high pressure builds over the region. Lows tonight will fall into the mid 60s and low 70s with upper 50s over the mountains. Low clouds and fog will be prevalent overnight given the front nearby. Highs Tuesday will push into the mid to upper 70s (60s mountains). KEY MESSAGE 2...A strong cold front brings back rain and thunderstorm chances for this upcoming weekend. A strong upper-level trough forms over the Upper Midwest before transitioning over the Great Lakes later this Wednesday through Friday, with a stemming cold front tracking through the Mid-Atlantic by the start of the weekend. Southeast winds help to provide moisture as this front moves through, increasing humidity as well as chances for showers and thunderstorms late in the week. Exact timing of the front remains uncertain at this time, with current ensembles showing a range of possible times through the weekend where storms could form along the front. Damaging wind gusts remain the primary hazard with any storms, but additional impacts remain uncertain at this time. Otherwise, expect conditions to remain hot & humid before and after the frontal boundary moves through, with temperatures nominally decreasing after the front passes but quickly increasing to mid-90s with dewpoints approaching 70 by next Monday. Upper level ridging moves into the region early next week, reducing rain chances. Marine Winds diminish below SCA (Small Craft Advisory) levels overnight with additional SCAs (Small Craft Advisories) in effect for Tuesday afternoon. High pressure builds overhead on Wednesday with winds forecast to stay below Small Craft Advisory criteria. Winds diminish below SCA (Small Craft Advisory) thresholds by late Friday morning and remain so through the weekend. Southerly winds shift westerly late Saturday evening, with showers and thunderstorms possible over the waters Friday and Saturday afternoon and evening.
