Heavy rain this morning, more develops overnight

WE’RE GIVING YOU A LIVE LOOK RIGHT NOW AT ANNAPOLIS, WHERE IT’S BEEN POURING AND THERE HAVE BEEN LIGHTNING STRIKES. YOU’RE PROBABLY HEARING THIS WAKING YOU UP EARLY ON THIS MONDAY MORNING, AND WE’RE GOING TO WATCH THE TIDES THERE BECAUSE WHEN THE WIND TURNS FROM THE EAST LATER THIS WEEK, THAT CAN PUSH THE TIDES UP ABOVE NORMAL. SO BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR ANY COASTAL FLOOD ALERTS. RIGHT NOW WE’RE TALKING HEAVY RAIN BUILDING INTO THE BALTIMORE AREA. YOU CAN SEE THAT IN THE YELLOW, ORANGE AND EVEN SOME RED ON THE MAP. SO THIS IS A BUILDING IN FROM THE WEST. SO IT’S ABOUT TO PICK UP AND GET HEAVIER IN THE CITY. SOME REALLY HEAVY RAIN TOWARDS LAUREL. AND THIS IS WHERE WE’VE SEEN A LOT OF THE LIGHTNING STRIKES NEAR ANNAPOLIS AND KENT ISLAND. NOW MOVING INTO THE EASTERN SHORE. SO RAIN YOU CAN DEAL WITH. YOU JUST HAVE TO DRESS FOR IT AND GO SLOWER ON THE ROADS. BUT IF YOU HEAR THUNDER THAT TELLS YOU THERE’S LIGHTNING AND YOU WANT TO WAIT INSIDE UNTIL YOU GO OUT FOR A WALK, YOU DON’T WANT TO BE OUT WALKING WHEN THERE’S LIGHTNING. SO WAIT UNTIL THAT THUNDER PASSES YOUR AREA AND THEN YOU CAN GO BACK OUT IN YOUR RAIN GEAR. BUT YES, WE’RE GOING TO BE DEALING WITH SOME HEAVY RAIN THIS MORNING. IN FACT, WE’RE GOING TO HAVE WAVES OF RAIN FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS THIS FRONT IS STALLING ACROSS THE AREA AND IT’S GOING TO WIGGLE BACK AND FORTH OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. AND EVERY TIME IT PASSES THROUGH, IT GIVES US ANOTHER PERIOD OF RAIN. TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO BE DROPPING DOWN THIS WEEK, SO THEY’RE GOING TO FALL INTO THE LOW 50S FOR THE HIGHS ON TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY. BY FRIDAY WE’RE DRYING OUT. BUT THAT’S THE COOLEST DAY AT 50 DEGREES. WE’LL BOUNCE BACK THIS WEEKEND WHEN WE DRY OUT COMPLETELY. SUNDAY LOOKS LIKE THE NICEST DAY AT 61 DEGREES THIS MORNING. STARTING OUT IN THE 40S AND THE 50S, WE’RE AT 49, IN BEL AIR, 51 RIGHT NOW AT BWI AND IT’S GOING TO STAY COOL TODAY WITH ALL THE RAINY, GLOOMY WEATHER. AND THE RAIN IS MOST STEADY THROUGH ABOUT 11:00 THIS MORNING, BECOMING MORE SCATTERED BY LUNCH. AND THEN WE GET A BREAK DURING THE AFTERNOON UNTIL ADDITIONAL RAIN STARTS TO BUILD IN TONIGHT, MAINLY LATE IN THE NIGHT. THE WIND WILL BE OUT OF THE EAST AT ABOUT 5 TO 10MPH, SO THE FUTURECAST AGAIN SHOWS SOME OF THE STEADIEST RAIN WITH SOME THUNDER IN IT. THROUGH THIS MORNING THROUGH ABOUT 9:00 AND THEN BY 10:00 AND NOON THE RAIN IS MORE SCATTERED. BY THIS AFTERNOON WE SHOULD GET A BREAK AND SO THE ORIOLES SHOULD GET THEIR GAME IN ON TIME. FIRST PITCH AT 635. BUT THEN WE DO HAVE SOME RAIN DEVELOPING LATE TONIGHT. SO AFTER ABOUT MIDNIGHT, WE’LL GET A PERIOD OF RAIN AND THEN WE’LL HAVE ADDITIONAL RAIN AT TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY. ON TUESDAY. SO KIDS, A LOT OF THEM GOING BACK TO A SCHOOL TOMORROW WITH THE END OF SPRING BREAK AND TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE CHILLY ONLY IN THE LOW 50S, WITH RAIN LIKELY TO TOMORROW. SO AS YOU’RE PLANNING OUT YOUR OUTFITS, YOU WANT TO FACTOR THAT IN OUR SEVEN DAY FORECAST, THE ORIOLES PLAYING AGAINST THE ROYALS FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS, AND WE’RE EXPECTING A RAINY WEATHER PATTERN. BUT AGAIN, THE RAIN TAKES A BREAK SO THEY’LL GET THIS GAME IN THIS EVENING. OKAY, WE’LL KEEP AN EYE ON TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY THOUGH. COOL TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW 50S. TUESDAY AN
