Baltimore is dealing with a serious weather day. A Code Orange air quality alert is in effect across the metro, stacking on top of near-96-degree heat to create conditions that are genuinely hazardous for vulnerable residents. If you have asthma, respiratory issues, or care for kids or elderly family members, today is an indoor day during peak hours — roughly noon to 6 PM.

For everyone heading out, the advice is practical: loose, light-colored clothing, plenty of water, and sunscreen. Humid heat drains you faster than dry heat, and Baltimore in late May can feel oppressively thick. Commuters on foot or bike should leave extra time and keep the pace easy.

The afternoon brings a second concern. Scattered thunderstorms are possible as an energy wave moves through the region, with the highest risk aligning with the evening commute around 5 to 6 PM. Coverage will be spotty — not every neighborhood gets hit — but if a storm rolls through your area, expect delays. Keep an eye on the radar before you leave.

The good news: this heat doesn't last. The same system driving today's storms is pulling cooler, drier air in behind it. Memorial Day weekend is shaping up to be noticeably cooler and wetter — a dramatic swing from 96 degrees in under 48 hours. If you have outdoor plans for the long weekend, build in some flexibility.

Stay cool, limit outdoor exposure if you're in a vulnerable group, and keep that umbrella handy for the ride home.
