Harford County will see partly cloudy skies and drier conditions Monday as high pressure moves into the region, according to the Harford County Department of Emergency Services.

What’s Happening: A stretch of calmer weather is settling over the county to start the week. High pressure is bringing drier air and partly cloudy skies through Monday and into Tuesday before conditions change.

What’s Important: Showers and thunderstorms are possible Wednesday afternoon and evening, mainly east of Interstate 81, ahead of a strong cold front. That front is expected to push through the region Thursday.

By the Numbers: The window for the most active weather runs roughly 48 hours, from Wednesday afternoon through Thursday, before conditions are expected to settle again heading into the weekend of June 20.

What We Know: High pressure systems typically bring stable, dry air and reduced cloud cover. Cold fronts can produce gusty winds, heavy rain, and thunderstorms as warm and cold air masses meet. Harford County sits in the northeastern corner of Maryland, making it subject to storm systems tracking up the I-95 corridor as well as those pushing in from the west.

The Path Forward: Residents should monitor forecasts heading into Wednesday, as storm timing and intensity can shift as a cold front approaches. The Harford County Department of Emergency Services is the local point of contact for weather-related alerts and emergency information.
