rain has fallen in the past 24 hours, the bulk of heavy showers have been out in ohio and western pennsylvaniae to western maryland, but most of our state was just light amounts. very little measurable rain in southern maryland, seldom baltimore -- south of baltimore. this has been weakening quite a bit as it approaches our area. once again we are drive for the spring months. four or 5 inches below the normal amount of rainfall we would have in march and april and so for the first week of may. 73 is a high at the inner harbor and normal is at 72. a warm 77 in salisbury. don't forget, it is cooler than that on the eastern shore where the winds are coming right off the oceans. it will stay mile tonight with an occasional shower. you cannot rule of the possibility of hearing a little under overnight. tomorrow morning the skies will stay cloudy here. continuewe's and winds mostly out of the south. a big storm in the upper midwest -- 60-65 for lows. it will stall along the eastern seaboard and keep clouds and showers in the forecast at least through the afternoon tomorrow. the front will pass by an

heavy rain in parts of ohio and parts of western pennsylvania. it is of the mountains, the rain showers become much weaker. we have only had up to attend the an inch of rain in baltimore. 72 degrees for the high, and that is right on target for the normal high temperature on may 8. we are running below normal for rain. the numbers are down -- and pollen numbers are down a little bit from yesterday. 67 over in northern frederick county and 73 in easton. the sea breeze is keeping ocean city a little bit cooler. shower activity will make its way slowly toward the coast. up until a couple of hours after midnight we have a chance for showers and a little under and then we would just be left a cloud and some sprinkles by morning tomorrow. south when that 5-10 miles an hour. -- south wins at 5-10 miles an hour. below is up in the upper midwest and the front is getting farther away from it. it will slow down as it moves off the coast and waves of low pressure may track north along that front along the eastern seaboard, keeping the threat of showers in th

typically when we see activity as close as western pennsylvania, it's just a matter of hours before itets to d.c., but this is going to take a little bit longer. that's because this front which is pretty much in this position now is taking a while to move. there is a lot of wind parallel to it. so what we get is a slow moving front that should squeeze out some showers ands to remember tone afternoon, but it also kind of -- showers and storms tomorrow afternoon, but it also kind of keeps us socked in from the sunshine. i don't think we're talking about thunderstorms wednesday, but showers will probably linger a part of the day. get used to more shades of gray. look at the futurecast. you can see where the clouds are tonight. tomorrow morning maybe we have some bright spots, but by afternoon those clouds roll back in again and by 5:00 here for the rush hour perhaps the beltway is not getting wet. perhaps 95 is not, but we will see activity to our north and west, so hagerstown and down along interstate 81. some of those linger and get in here later in the evening, 10:00, 11:00, and by wed

garrett county, over central ohio and western pennsylvania, that's where we're seeing scattered showerslabama and mississippi. this unsettled area spiraling across the country's mid-section but likely not to be in here until we get to wednesday, maybe late tomorrow night. we'll see some showers. in the meantime high pressure keeps us dry for one more day but not -- but does not keep the day sunny. that on shore flow persist. our next boundary coming in, that will be a focus for rain generation, that coming in tuesday night and through the day wednesday we expect more significant rain to develop and potentially get into a training system where we get rain wave after wave coming up up the coast. this would not be a bad scenario to see eastern maryland get the bulk of the rain. overnight 55, mild and breezy. clouds will hold tough, 75, maybe a few peeks of sun and maybe a late day shower or storm. the better chances for rain won't come until plate tomorrow night has-- late tomorrow night as we go down to 62. you can see the scenario. the best chance of rain will hold off until wednesday. w
