More storms possible in Maryland on Saturday
It was a quieter start to the day on Saturday. Some neighborhoods woke up to breezy and gusty winds but also a few showers to start the final day of May.
We’ll see a few hours of quiet weather before another round of showers and possibly a few storms develop this afternoon and evening.
The Storm Prediction Center has placed all of Maryland in a level 1 out of 5 risk for severe weather today. The threat is lower than Friday but still be aware of changing weather conditions. Damaging wind gusts are the greatest threat for any stronger storms on Saturday in Maryland.
Once storms move out this evening, we are in for a quieter stretch.
We’ve heard your complaints about the cool and wet month we’ve had for May (although all of this wet weather has significantly improved our drought). Warmer and drier weather is on the way to start June.
Sunday is the pick of the two weekend days. Not only will it be drier and brighter but temperatures will be a touch warmer as well. We’re looking at highs around the mid-70s across the area.
From there, we’re in a warming trend. Temperatures this week return to and will quickly surpass normal highs for early June. It’ll feel more like mid-July before the week is done. You’ll also notice an uptick in humidity around midweek as temperatures rise.
Our next rain chance holds off until late week.

Powerball jackpot grows to $1 billion as Maryland’s $1 million ticket winner awaits claim
WBFF — A Powerball ticket sold in Lanham has made one lucky player $1 million richer following Wednesday night’s drawing.
The ticket, which matched all five white balls but missed the red Powerball, is one of three significant wins in Maryland from the Dec. 10 drawing. The other two winning tickets include a $150,000 prize in Hughesville and a $50,000 prize in Bel Air.
The $1 million ticket was purchased at the 7-Eleven located at 7730 Finns Lane in Lanham, Prince George’s County.
Meanwhile, the $150,000 ticket, which included the Power Play option, was sold at the Jameson-Harrison American Legion Post 238 in Hughesville, Charles County.
The $50,000 ticket was bought at Klein’s Shoprite on North Main Street in Bel Air, Harford County.
None of these winning tickets have been claimed yet, and the Maryland Lottery is urging winners to sign their tickets and store them safely. Prizes over $25,000 must be claimed by appointment at Lottery headquarters within 182 days of the drawing date.
The Powerball jackpot, which has not been won since Sept. 6, has now rolled over to an estimated annuity value of $1 billion, with a cash option of $461.3 million for the next drawing on Saturday night. This marks the seventh-largest jackpot since Powerball began in 1992.
