Hot, humid and stormy end to Memorial Day Weekend

Good evening everyone! It is a hot and mostly dry day in Maryland. A few storms have popped up across the eastern shore, but for the most part, we have been quiet. Temps creep back into the 70s overnight as our next line of rain approaches. The SPC has placed us under a 1/5 risk for strong to severe storms today. Tomorrow is a different story. The SPC has upgraded us tomorrow to a level 2/5 SLIGHT risk for severe weather. The main threats include heavy rain, damaging winds, large hail, and an isolated tornado that isn't out of the woods. There will be two main bands. One earlier in the morning that leaves most of the day mostly cloudy, a brief break mid-day, and then a band into the afternoon/evening. Temps will be humid in the mid-80s. The good news is after that system most of the week is less humid and milder. Abundant sunshine even into the weekend!

I hope you all have a great day and stay weather-aware!
