Storm Risk in Southern Maryland Amidst Tropical Storm Bertha's Impact
Southern Maryland and nearby beaches are under a storm risk today due to a stalled frontal boundary, following heavy rainfall and tornado warnings in the region yesterday. Rainfall totals varied significantly, with some areas receiving over 5 inches, leading to localized flooding. Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Bertha, with sustained winds of 50 mph, is impacting the Gulf Coast near New Orleans, bringing heavy rainfall and a risk of flooding. The storm may reemerge in the Gulf and head toward Houston later this week. Cooler air is expected to settle over northern areas, providing a brief respite with autumn-like conditions.
