hd skycam inner harbour. looking at mainly just clouds downtown. but the rain knocking on the door. 74 degrees. winds are out of the southwest at five. and look at the humidity levels. 97 percent. that makes it feel saturated out there, as far as the value for the moisture content in the atmosphere. looking at 76 degrees in baltimore. 75 in harrisburg. 78 in richmond. a little cooler air over the western edge of the mountains. but looks like the cool air is not going to push our direction. we will actually see it rotate north. and warmer temperatures build up out of the south. continue to see shower activity push through the area. and breaks in the clouds over ohio and indiana. some of that will move into the maryland area. through the day tomorrow. and maybe a 20 percent chance for a stray mid afternoon shower. but it looks like as the stuff gets out of here. we will see breaks in the clouds for tomorrow afternoon. future scan shows few clouds scattered and sunshine. and then it looks like the next chance of rain will arrive. friday late afternoon
