Morning report
The old storm offshore is still bringing moisture our way, but the impact is not as great as initially thought, so we are not expecting as much rain.
There will be scattered drizzle and light rain this morning, but the weather will improve this afternoon and it should be dry for the Orioles game.
It will stay warm for a few days, but more rain and cooler temperatures will arrive towards the end of the weekend and into next week.
Flood warning on the coast
The persistent easterly wind will bring some flooding at high tide through the weekend. The peak could be reached on Friday and Saturday.
Flooding in Annapolis:
- Today: 6:27 am; 7:05 pm
- Friday: 7:11 a.m.; 7:59 p.m.
- Saturday: 7:57 a.m.; 8:53 p.m.
Morning surface weather
The old storm is further offshore. That’s why it’s not raining as much as originally expected.
There is still an influence of moisture, with drizzle or light rain this morning. The models aren’t picking this up well, so the live radar below is best for tracking. Things will improve this afternoon.

My message about dyslexia again
I realize there are some spelling and grammatical errors and the occasional other mishap. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer errors I might miss. I’ve made a few public statements over the years, but if you’re new here, you may have missed it: I’m dyslexic and found out in my sophomore year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my degree in meteorology and being the first to receive the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington area.
One of my professors told me that I had come this far without prior knowledge and that I shouldn’t use it as a crutch for the future. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely right! I overlook my mistakes when proofreading. The automatic spell checker on my computer sometimes does it wrong and makes it worse. I can also make mistakes with predictions. No one can predict the future perfectly. All the maps and information are correct. The “wordy” stuff can prove difficult.
There was no editor to review my work when writing and have it ready to ship in a timely timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to correct typos when she has time. That might be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps prove that what you are reading is really mine… That’s part of my charm. #FITF
