Alert Days Wednesday through Friday for severe weather risk, intense heat in Maryland
Maryland will have several chances for severe weather Wednesday through Friday, with intense heat and humidity Thursday and Friday
The WJZ First Alert Weather Team has issued First Alert Weather Days Wednesday through Friday for the potential of strong to severe storms each day, along with the heat.
Heat builds, chance for severe weather across Maryland
Two waves of showers and thunderstorms will impact Maryland Wednesday. The first round of rain continues to push through the Baltimore metro and surrounding suburbs. This batch of rain is not associated with any severe weather, but will cause slower-than-normal travel on the roads. The first round of rain should begin to taper across the region between 10 a.m. and noon.
There will be a break late morning through early afternoon, where the sky will be variably cloudy. Expect some peeks of sunshine and temperatures to climb well into the 80s.
The building heat along with very muggy air will help fuel a line of strong to locally severe storms across central and eastern Maryland from 3 p.m. until 8 p.m. A few damaging wind gusts, blinding downpours, small hail, and lightning and thunder are likely with these storms.
Thursday and Friday will be the hottest days of the week. Most communities will warm into the mid-90s during the afternoon. A few spots northwest of Baltimore could soar into the upper 90s. Unlike previous heat this season, we’re expecting plenty of humidity this time around. It’ll feel like it’s between 100° to 103° Thursday and Friday afternoons. Please make sure you, your family, and pets are taking breaks from the heat and staying properly hydrated.
Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible again Thursday and Friday. If the storms do manage to develop Thursday, they appear to arrive a bit later in the evening, so the afternoon rush hour should just be dry, hot, and humid. Storms Thursday evening have the capability of producing damaging winds.
The risk of severe weather is greatest on Friday – damaging winds, hail and vivid lightning with a few of the storms. Have at least one way to get severe weather alerts.
Summer heat and sunshine this weekend
While still warm this weekend, humidity will drop and afternoons won’t be as oppressive.
Saturday appears to be the driest day. A rogue couple showers or storms cannot be ruled out on Sunday. The weekend will feature much more dry time, overall. Temperatures peak in the upper 80s and lower 90s both weekend afternoons.
The forecast is favorable for Baltimore’s Pride Parade and Festival this weekend. The chance of wet weather climbs again heading into next workweek.

Armed security hired, tickets sold for large Maryland July 4th party that turned deadly
A homeowner’s son sold tickets online for a large July 4th house party in Harford County that turned deadly shortly after midnight on Sunday.
The Harford County Sheriff’s Office said the party in the 2300 block of Willow Vale Drive in Fallston attracted about 100 people, and armed security was hired. Outside of the home, a 34-year-old man was critically injured, and a 23-year-old man died after a shooting.
Officers are investigating and still searching for the shooters.
“All we know is that the party ended right around 12 o’clock, there was armed security at the party, and that individuals were leaving the house, walking up the driveway, going into the street, and some type of altercation took place up on the street, which resulted in gunfire,” said Col. William Davis, with the Harford County Sheriff’s Office.
Armed security hired, tickets sold for party
Investigators said the homeowner was out of town, and the son hosted a party on the Fourth of July, selling tickets online. Armed security was hired to monitor the party.
Shortly after midnight, police said an altercation led to two people being shot.
A 34-year-old man from Owings Mills, found in the garage with multiple gunshot wounds, was airlifted to the hospital. Jordan Jennings, 23, from Windsor Mill, was taken by party guests to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Deputies said the armed security was present during the shooting, but it’s not clear what role they played.
“If you have to hire armed security to be at your house for a party, it’s probably a good idea not to have that party,” Col. Davis said. “Because you’re actually saying, at that point in time, there’s a possibility that something bad could happen.”
Deputies investigating Fourth of July party shooting
Col. Davis said everyone whom investigators identified at the party was not from Harford County.
Deputies are reviewing video, witness interviews and evidence to determine who fired the shots and the motive.
“We’re still working through all that, with the shell casings and video and interviews, and all that, so we’re still not 100% sure how all that went down, but we hope to have some answers pretty soon,” Col. Davis said.
Col. Davis said no calls for service were made to that address prior to the shooting.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Harford County Sheriff’s office at 443-567-7201.
