That said, Southern Maryland is not completely out of the woods yet. At this time, forecasters are predicting slight risks for the area due to weather conditions resulting from Florence.

The Maryland Emergency Management Agency says “flooding is still a concern” and advise residents to continue to be vigilant as they monitor the storm.

Hurricane Florence is currently a category 3 storm expected to make landfall in the Carolinas by Saturday.
