A severe Fourth of July storm knocked out power across Southern Maryland and sparked an attic fire at a Mechanicsville home from a lightning strike, so check the SMECO outage map if you're affected. On the bright side, Solomons Fireworks are back on at Glascock Field tonight—just use The BayNet traffic cameras to check conditions before heading out. Expect a hot, overcast day with a high near 93°F and moderate air quality.
