Alert Reminder
A Watch means it ‘might’ happen.
A WARNING means it is ‘HAPPENING NOW’. This is more urgent and tracking an event across towns with more specific times.
The storms that fired up this afternoon between Washington and Annapolis were caught late by short range modeling.
There is more to the west, and we have through evening.
Hail Reports:
1″ Hail was documented in Virginia – Sudley and Manassas.
In Maryland – Crofton.
That is enough to produce damage.

*Disclaimer due to frequent questions:
I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here you may have missed it:
I have dyslexia, and found out at my second year at Cornell. I didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree, and being first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region.
I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse.
All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky.
There is no editor that can check my work when I need it and have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline.
I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me…
It’s part of my charm.
