EF0 tornado briefly touches down in Annapolis
A waterspout was spotted over Spa Creek in the Eastport neighborhood of Annapolis on Thursday evening. On Friday, the National Weather Service (NWS) confirmed that the waterspout passed briefly as an EF0 tornado over the Severn Sailing Association marina. According to the NWS, a witness watched as the waterspout moved ashore and over the marina, blowing over multiple trailered and small boats in the parking area. Videos from social media captured near the Route 450 bridge showed the tornado spinning from the shoreline to the mouth of the river, moving west to east. It then disappeared before reaching land on the opposite side of the river. No additional damage was reported. A Flash Flood Watch was in effect for most of the Baltimore region, including Howard County, until early Friday morning. Storms brought severe damage to multiple communities. In Mt. Airy, a 13-year-old boy drowned after being swept into an outdoor drainage pipe. Meanwhile, in Harford County, two people were rescued from floodwaters at the Pulaski Highway and Baltimore County line. "Numerous people have been rescued from flood waters as a result. Fortunately, there have been no injuries," the Joppa Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company said. "Do not attempt to drive or cross flooded roads or sidewalks. Turn around, don't drown." Additionally, an ambulance and at least one vehicle crashed in the Joppa area and were leaning on the side of the road on Mountain Road and Greenspring Avenue.

Maryland Set for Cool, Comfortable Weekend Before Midweek Rain Chances Return
A refreshing stretch of weather is setting up across Maryland as we head into the weekend, bringing sunshine, low humidity and seasonably mild temperatures. Skies will clear tonight, allowing temperatures to dip to near 60 degrees across much of the region. Some of the typically cooler spots, especially north and west of Baltimore, could fall into the upper 50s by early Saturday morning. The weekend itself will feature nearly ideal summer conditions. Both Saturday and Sunday will bring plenty of sunshine with highs near 80 degrees. Humidity levels will remain low, making for comfortable afternoons and cool nights. Lows both nights will hover near 60 degrees, with patchy areas dipping into the 50s. These pleasant conditions will hold into the start of next week. Monday looks sunny once again with highs close to 80, while Tuesday brings increasing clouds. Despite the added cloud cover, the forecast remains dry through Tuesday evening. By Wednesday, however, the pattern begins to change. Rain chances return midweek and could persist into Friday. While it is too early to pinpoint exact rainfall amounts, multiple days of unsettled weather are possible, which could provide a much-needed soaking for parts of the region that have been running drier over the past several weeks. Even with the clouds and potential showers, temperatures will stay seasonably mild. Highs throughout the week will remain steady near 80 degrees, with overnight lows holding in the 60s. This stretch marks a welcome break from the persistent heat and humidity typical of early August. For many across Maryland, the weekend offers a taste of late-summer comfort before a wetter pattern sets in later next week.
