that big azz band approaching the I95 corridor over the Bay is gonna' knock power out for some of us I fear :(

I was just thinking the same exact thing. Those 40dbz+ returns are certainly going to mix some gusts down. Some in the 50mph range seems probable.

Rockville obs: light to moderate rain and gusts maybe in the 30-35 range. Not too much sustained though.

Buddy in Ches Beach said it's getting pretty messy. Sustained in the 40 range and really heavy rain.

good rain and wind now in Frederick. Man, it stinks for those of you with Pepco. I've never regretted Allegheny Power. Cheaper rates AND less outages!

Heavier rain down here in Frederick now (Ballenger Creek area). Although some friends to the north of me near Ft. Detrick and Walkersville said their lights are flickering and hear a noise outside. Winds really are not that bad down here.

I live about 1/2mi from Detrick...no strange noises or flickering yet. Things have picked up a bit, though.

New tornado warning for parts of DE into MD - not sure if Nancy is around or not... I believe her mom is in Kent County MD

Thanks Katie.. I originally posted asking for someone to get a read on that tornado as it was headed directly at my mom (who has gone to bed and is asleep) but they did not continue that warning. I hope nothing flares up around the Still Pond/Worton area. If it does scream at me, and I'll wake her up again. So much going on it'll be easy to miss another warning.

THIS IS A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS AND RAPIDLY DEVELOPING SITUATION.

TREES AND POWER LINES. BE PREPARED FOR POWER OUTAGES.

tornadoes in tropical systems are very tricky. they are often weak but they spin up and disappear fast. best bet is to just follow nws probably.
