- Flood monitoring from 3 p.m. to this afternoon for most of the DC area * 10:40 a.m. – Flood monitoring has been expanded to cover most of the DC area While computer models tend to project most of the rainfall west of Interstate 95 later today, the atmosphere will be humid enough in much of the area to support heavy rainfall that could cause flooding. The National Weather Service has decided to extend flood monitoring – previously limited to the western part of the area – to most of the area, except southern Maryland and the counties adjacent to Chesapeake Bay. The #Flood Watch for possible flash floods this afternoon and evening has extended eastward on Corridor I-95. Heavy # rain from thunderstorms can lead to rapid rise of water in creeks, streams and areas with poor drainage. pic.twitter.com/MtfzQDadcQ – NWS Baltimore-Washington (@NWS_BaltWash) June 22, 2022 We will publish a detailed information about the heavy rainfall and the possibility of strong thunderstorms around noon. Original article from 5 p.m. A somewhat subjective rating of the daytime weather, on a scale from 0 to 10. 5/10: Definitely getting worse compared to the recent good weather. It could reach 90 degrees with possible thunderstorms late in the day and possible floods.
Today: Partly sunny, scattered pm storms develop. High: Over 80s to low 90s. Tonight: Possible rains and thunderstorms at night. Low: Over 60s to almost 70s. Tomorrow: Possible isolated to scattered rains. High: Mid 70s to low 80s.
The series of our very good weather days has come to an end. The hottest wind and a warm atmosphere today created the scene for thunderstorms late in the day. After that, the forecast is not too bad for the weekend, and we will actually have a little cooler and slightly less humidity tomorrow, although with a few more rains possible. But then we look at the average summer heat and humidity from Friday to Sunday. Today (Wednesday): Trends warmer today, with highs heading from the upper 80s to the lower 90s under partly sunny skies and we are wetter (dew points in the mid 60s). A staggering rain is likely in the morning, with transient rains and thunderstorms likely to develop after around 3pm. Some of them could cause very heavy rain and floods, with possible isolated catastrophic winds and hail. Confidence: Moderate-High Tonight: Scattered rain and thunderstorms are still possible during the night, and there may be areas that will see recurring thunderstorms before giving way to lighter rain during the night. Again, some of these storms could cause very heavy rain and flooding, with the possibility of wind and hail damage. Otherwise, we are mostly cloudy at night and somewhat cloudy with low prices in the 60’s to close to 70. Confidence: Moderate-High Follow us on Facebook, Twitterand Instagram for the latest weather updates. Keep reading for the forecasts until the weekend … Tomorrow (Thursday): Possible isolated to isolated rains from morning until early afternoon. Partly to partly cloudy skies and a gentle breeze from the north hold the temperatures and reduce the humidity to a degree. The highs should only reach the mid-1970s to the low 80s (with the dew points in the lows to the mid-60s). Confidence: Moderate Tomorrow night: Not a bad summer night. The skies should be partly cloudy with only a hint of haze and low in the 1960s. Confidence: Moderate-High Friday and Saturday appear to be mostly sunny and dry days with high pressure control. High temperatures until the mid-80s to close to 90 with moderate humidity. Friday night and Saturday night the lows fall back to the 60’s. Confidence: Moderate Sunday Trends are much warmer and wetter with high values close to 90. There will still be plenty of sunshine, but increasing clouds may be observed later in the day and perhaps a rain or thunderstorm late in the afternoon or evening. Confidence: Low-Medium
