  1. happy to share! i highly recommend the one where the camcorder was set up inside a house as the tornado passed by. the noise!
  2. also, because its me, today is 20 years since this monster happened. https://www.ustornadoes.com/2019/05/03/may-3-4-1999-tornado-outbreak-and-the-bridge-creek-moore-f5/
  3. some nice storms that blew through the southern areas last night. just fringed up my way. JB shared this yesterday, beautiful pic.
  4. this is a huge problem across the board. my own mother, for a time, didn't even know the difference. however, regarding schools, the State of Maryland Board of Ed needs to make sure their teachers and especially their principals are properly trained to know the correct verbiage and what to do. I hope this is a serious lesson to the school, and the overall county, on properly handling of these situations.
  5. also, I have a ridiculous backlog of tornadoes to map. my goodness. close to a 100 from April 17-19
  6. ha, i just mentioned this in the severe thread.
  7. I saw. Lots of discussion earlier this week on why an elementary school in the middle of the tornado warning dismissed the kids anyways. Apparently the warning came out minutes before the dismissal bell rang, and the principal was told yet had the kids leave anyways. really stupid. and FWIW: my daughter's school held the kids until 4pm, even though the warning was south and east.
  8. Well I’ll cheers you here! I’m sure I’ll be back in the area again now that family is here. And don’t worry she’s not a snow fan like me lol
  9. She’s off Wood Duck Rd. It’s a nice house just a packed neighborhood.
  10. My sister bought a house in the area, house warming party for her. So made the trip
  11. In Greensboro today, hi @C.A.P.E. !
  12. Missed all the fun including the tornado warned storm over my work. Was sitting in traffic driving back from Montgomery county. Oh well
  13. ah. for some reason i thought federalsburg was up in Caroline county too. alas, my geography failed me this time. but yes, same event that produced the two in DE

  16. My other half just emailed asking of this was it in terms of severe
  17. i never venture in there lol
  18. Hurricane Michael was upgrade to a Cat 5 @WxWatcher007
  19. ahh, you did say 1-95 corridor. my bad. i have a hard time believe that slug of moisture south of DC won't hit I-95
  20. My understanding of SPCs outlook was the any pre squall stuff had the potential for severe/tornado. Otherwise, the worst would come through later with the main squall line (later tonight).
  21. rotation looked good when the warning was first issued, its weakened a bit.
  22. to be fair, I have mod powers. but pffft if i am going to moderate myself.
