aldie 22 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Looks like it will hold together this time....Leesburg appears to be on the Northern edge...should be a fun 10 minutes or so... .04 on the day...perhaps we can double it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDweatherman Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Yep heading my way. Any idea what the winds are?I'd say based on the velo scans and associated radar tools, 55-65 with some potential gusts to 70 on the ridges. It has actually gained a bit of strength recently.

DDweatherman Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 There is most likely a waterspout over the Potomac, a tornado will likely be OTG in southern MD in the near future. Solid GTG shear numbers at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
