Central MD Weather Conditions

The tornado tragedy in Oklahoma deeply saddens me, especially for the loss of life of those young children. My desire to forecast and study storms was borne out of fear; but used now to help save lives so that we don't have repeats of last night.

How can we cope with the news of such a tragedy? On my Facebook page I have posted a reflection on this tragedy. Please share your thoughts with us on that page: www.facebook.com/lifesjourneyblog

Happy Mother's Day!!

Yesterday's storms were a bit more scattered and localized, but strong nonetheless. Below are some of the official storm reports from the local NWS. Harford Co received the brunt of the storm with a confirmed micro-burst resulting in property damage, and a trained weather spotter noted a funnel cloud (it's not classified a tornado until the funnel makes contact with the ground) in Baltimore City. PG, Montgomery and AA counties all ...

Wed storms in Maryland

Posted by: cws6196, 4:24 AM GMT on April 24, 2013

This is just a quick note since there isn't too much to say on this system, unless you want the technical details. The temps will warm for us Wednesday in time for the arrival of a weak cold front. By later afternoon, maybe rush hour, we could see some thunderstorms. These storms will not be severe, although, always take precautions when lightning is present.

This Friday's weather will be similar to last Friday's weather. We currently have a Bermuda High over the Atlantic bringing in warm and moist Southern air while to the West is a strong cold front moving into the area. The interaction of the air masses will prime the atmosphere for storms.

TIMING: There is a chance for scattered rain earlier in the day Friday, but the main storm and cold front will be in the area around 3:00pm or so, depending on your l...
