Maryland is bracing for a weekend marked by unpredictable weather, with showers and storms expected to impact Father’s Day celebrations. As this questionable weather pattern continues, temperatures remain below average, which could affect events such as the Orioles game scheduled for Saturday afternoon. Game-time temperatures are projected to be in the mid 70s to low 80s, creating potential discomfort for fans if rain and storms disrupt their plans.
Scattered showers are anticipated to begin on Saturday morning, with the likelihood of more severe thunderstorms arriving later in the day. While Father’s Day will not be a total washout, rain is still in the forecast, especially in the afternoon and evening when the chances for heavy downpours increase. Light rain showers may linger into Monday morning, adding to the unsettled weather.
Remarkably, Sunday is projected to be the coolest June 15 in over 15 years, with highs expected to be in the low 70s, a significant drop from typical June temperatures.
The trend of unsettled weather is set to persist, with rain anticipated throughout the upcoming week. Baltimore could see rainfall adding up to 1.5 inches by week’s end. As the workweek progresses, temperatures will gradually rise, reaching the mid 70s on Monday, returning to the 80s on Tuesday, and even reaching low 90s by Wednesday and Thursday before cooling slightly back into the upper 80s on Friday.
Despite the damp forecast, these weather conditions can also provide much-needed hydration for the region, supporting local agriculture and maintaining the ecosystem. Residents might consider enjoying indoor activities as an alternative to outdoor plans, allowing them to have a cozy weekend while being mindful of the changing weather.
