The weather calmed Wednesday night in the Baltimore region after alerts were issued for much of the state warning of severe thunderstorms, flash floods and, for some, tornadoes.

Howard and Carroll counties received 2-3 inches of rainfall, while Southeast Baltimore saw around an inch, Cody Ledbetter, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service, said.

“Somehow, Baltimore missed out on the worst of it,” Ledbetter said.

A tornado warning was issued until 7 p.m. Wednesday for parts of Montgomery and Prince George’s counties.

The tornado warnings caused delays and cancellations for commuters. The Maryland Transit Administration reported several delays on MARC trains throughout the region.

But a hazardous weather outlook for the region, including almost all of Maryland, from Frederick County to the Eastern Shore, says flash flooding is possible until midnight. Video shows drivers in Annapolis slogging through semiflooded Compromise Street following Wednesday’s downpour.

Wednesday night’s game between the Orioles and the New York Mets was postponed to Thursday. There will be a doubleheader, with one game at 12:05 p.m. and another at 5:05 p.m.

Temperatures in the Baltimore area peaked at around 90 degrees Wednesday, with overnight low forecasts in the mid-70s.

The longer-range forecast from the NWS indicates storms and showers are possible through Sunday.

The forecast comes amid a string of strong storms in the region. Storms with wind gusts of 70 mph blew through the region Tuesday, causing power outages and road closures. Last week, a church was damaged after apparently being struck by lightning and parts of Baltimore flooded.
