Tornado Watch Issued for Maryland Amid Severe Storms
Maryland residents are on alert for tornadoes and strong winds as severe storms are expected to sweep through the area Sunday night. The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a tornado watch for nine counties, including Anne Arundel, Calvert, Charles, Frederick, Montgomery, Howard, Prince George’s, St. Mary’s, and Washington, valid until 10 p.m.
Forecasters warn that scattered severe thunderstorms could produce damaging wind gusts, large hail, and potential tornadoes, with a heightened risk of flash flooding in urban areas and along small streams, especially south of Baltimore. The NWS indicated some uncertainty regarding whether the most intense storms will impact the immediate D.C. area or be concentrated further south and west.
A hazardous weather outlook issued for Maryland highlights the Chesapeake Bay, tidal Potomac River, and I-95 corridor, signaling potential threats across these regions. As the storms roll in, residents can expect showers and isolated thunderstorms, with conditions gradually improving into Monday, where sunny skies are anticipated mid-week. Stay vigilant and prepared for rapidly changing weather conditions.
